What's Up With The Accent, Gillian Anderson?

Well, this is certainly odd!

American-born actress Gillian Anderson was recently nominated for a BAFTA Television Award for her role as Wallis Simpson in Any Human Heart, and strangely enough, spoke with an English accent for the majority of the ceremony!

Check out a clip (above)!

Apparently, she’s lived in London for the past few years, as well as a significant portion of her childhood, so we’re not really sure whether or not she’s deliberately putting it on! Maybe it was a joke?

Personally, we can’t take her seriously unless she’s got her Scully voice on! LOLz!

What do U think?? Was Gillian doing her best Madonna and Gwyneth??
