add that to the Canadian female accent of ending every sentence with an upward, question-like, sound and you have the two most irritating sounds on the planet.

Other than Moochelle’s long “ahhhhhhhhhh” sounds.

Here’s another: the annoying two-sentence iambic pentameter on most reality TV shows. First sentence up, second sentence down. Next cue card. I can’t watch more than two minutes of that.

I used to be a radio producer and any kind of voice affectation is going to turn listeners off. I always told people in the studio, just be yourself and speak in your normal voice. No fake accents or trendy affectations. Always think before you talk, and speak confidently and from the diaphragm, especially when going to job interviews.
