Fans aren’t gleeful over Dianna Agron’s latest interview. The actress, 39, who rose to fame playing Quinn Fabray on the hit television show “Glee” from 2009 to 2015, recently sat down for a
“Get Ready With Me” for Vanity Fair. Followers immediately flocked to the comments section to share their surprise at how different Agron’s voice sounds today from when she was playing the
head cheerleader on the Fox show. “But… why… does she suddenly have a transatlantic accent…?” one social media critic wrote, while a second chimed in: “So glad the comment section is all on
the same page. It’s like when Madonna turned British.” Another person exclaimed, “She literally just invented a new voice I’m so confused.” EXPLORE MORE Many were confused due to Agron’s
upbringing, with someone sharing, “Huh? She’s from San Antonio. What is this accent?” Some even compared Agron to Hilaria Baldwin, who despite growing up in Boston, Massachusetts, sometimes
sports a Spanish accent. “Babe wake up, there’s a new Hilaria,” one user said, while a second said, “It’s giving Hilaria,” and a third critic commented, “Ah yes, I believe this is a graduate
from the Hilaria school of acting.” But some came to her defense, explaining that her boyfriend hails from across the pond. “Her partner has a London accent,” they wrote, “so naturally she
picks up some of that transatlantic tone. It’s adorable.” Another person wrote: “It’s very normal to form an accent of the place you live! People need to calm down.” The actress and Belgian
painter Harold Ancart have been together since 2022. Agron was best known for playing the mean queen bee at William McKinley High School, who joined Glee club to keep an eye on her football
player boyfriend Finn Hudson, (Cory Monteith). But she soon found out he took a liking to the music group’s star, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele). The show faced tragedy in real life, after the
series’ star Monteith died of an accidental drug overdose before Season 5. Then, in 2018, Mark Salling (who portrayed football player Puck) died by suicide. Two years later, Naya Rivera
(cheerleader Santana Lopez) drowned in a lake accident. Agron has yet to address backlash on her change of voice. Baldwin, meanwhile, has fired back at _her_ critics, defending her accent on
her TLC reality show “The Baldwins,” which premiered in February. “I love English, I also love Spanish,” she explained on camera. “And when I mix the two, that doesn’t make me inauthentic,
it makes me normal.” “I’d be lying if I said it didn’t make me sad and hurt and put me in dark places,” Baldwin, 41, continued, “but my family, my friends, my community are the [people] who
speak multiple languages, who have belonging in multiple places, and realize that we are a mix … that’s gonna have an impact in how we sound.” She added, “That’s normal. That’s called being
human.” The former yoga instructor tied the knot with Alec Baldwin in 2012 and share seven children: Carmen, 11, Rafael, 9, Leonardo, 8, Romeo, 6, Eduardo and Marilu, 4, and Ilaria, 2. Over
the years, she’s been called out for her accent changing from English to Spanish. In 2020, a tweet from Leni Brisco read: “You have to admire Hilaria Baldwin’s commitment to her decadelong
grift where she impersonates a Spanish person.” Hilaria then took to Instagram to respond to the harsh criticism. “There’s been some questions about where I’m born, I’m born in Boston,” she
explained. “I spent some of my childhood in Boston, some of my childhood in Spain, my family, my brother, my parents, my nephew, everybody is over there in Spain now, I’m here.” A former
classmate of Hilaria’s then came forward, tweeting: “I went to high school with her. Genuinely lovely person, I recall, but fully a white girl from Cambridge.” A second chimed in: “I went to
high school with her. She was perfectly nice and serious about ballroom dancing. Her name was indeed Hillary Hayward-Thomas and she did not have her current accent.”
