Erik Singer, a prominent vocal coach who worked closely with actor Austin Butler on his critically-acclaimed performance in Elvis, is defending actress Millie Bobby Brown amid a controversy surrounding the continuity of the accent she speaks with.
'I really wish people would lay off of actors, and most especially that they'd lay off of criticizing people's accents,' Singer told TMZ Monday.
The Stranger Things star, 20, was criticized online for the accent she spoke in on a February 29 appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, as she was accused of actively losing her British accent in favor of sounding 'more American.
