Everything Lucy Hale Loves About Tennessee | Condé Nast Traveler

The 'Pretty Little Liars' star joins Condé Nast Traveler for a masterclass on all things Tennessee. Born and raised in Memphis, Lucy Hale is a true southern belle, so true in fact, they had to train the southern accent out of her when she moved to Los Angeles. From the best BBQ ribs to Graceland and Dollywood, Lucy is here to teach y'all how to be from Tennessee.
Lucy Hale stars in the upcoming Amazon Freevee Original Film PUPPY LOVE, premiering August 18, 2023. www.amazon.com/freevee
SAG-AFTRA members are currently on strike; as part of the strike, union actors are not promoting their film and TV projects. This interview was conducted prior to the strike.

How Tennessee am I? Little Debbie is a real person and my mom went to college with her.

[@blushbb.]

As a Tennessean the snacks and the cabining for ‘vacation’ was spot on 😂. She’s one of the only actors Ive consistently related/kept up with growing up, loved this.
As for her developing the accent at 15. I have a similar story to add. I developed one as a teen aswell when I got my first job. it came out of NO where, and grew stronger after a year of being there. It’s mostly because I was homeschooled (as Lucy was) and only spoke to my coworkers all day - everyday, alarmingly more than my own family. I thought that ‘absorbing’ things stopped as a adolescent but nope, factors can still play.. now I’m trying to shake it off because I miss not speaking so differently, and I’m sloowly getting there! 😂

Sad that she had to train herself out of her Southern accent - I wish we could just let actors have a variety of accent.
