Joss Stone says people who mocked her US accent have personal problems.

The Devon-born singer - who shocked people with her pronounced US drawl at the BRITs last month - says she doesn't understand why people criticised her accent.

Joss told Britain's Radio 1: "The sound of my voice and my accent doesn't mean anything.

"If people have a problem with it - that's their own inner problem.

"I've been in America since I was 14. That's why I sound the way I do."

The 19-year-old 'Tell Me 'Bout It' singer insists she still has the right to moan about her job because singing is "hard work".

She said: "Everyone moans about their job. I don't see why I'm not allowed to moan.

"It's hard work and I'm tired and if I want to moan, I'll moan."

Will this girl please shut up!!
She was on Radio 1 the other week denying using any type of drug,then days later she's confessing to smoking joints
she was on Radio 1 just last week ranting on about her friends in the band,her gay hairdresser and some other guy who simply tramples round the world with her..how they are her REAL friends..now she's contradicting herself AGAIN,saying she hasnt got friend
FUNNY wasnt it just weeks ago she blasted her ex for saying EXACTLY that!! that she's lonely

Listen Stone...u do use drugs...the ppl in your band are u're PAID friends..girls dont like u for simple reason,they DONT trust u around their boyfriends [since u repeatedly cheated on u're own boyfriend]
U are NOT as famous as u obviously think u are
and guys dont mess u around,its U that is never faithful
Now GO AWAY!!!

OH and u're accent is put on,and its not other ppls problem at all
U didnt write all u're songs,u have a number of writers on every song
U dont control u're career,cos Saadiq is controlling u,and u're rec company are trying to get u on as many shows as possible,in a bid to save u're album from bombing

SO DO US ALL A FAVOUR,AND STOP LYING!!! and go away

yeah,i've noticed all her contradictions alot too lately,well for a whilenow actually.She had the nerve too,to say on radio how she hates lies..she does nothing but tell them
I heard all about her cheating on her boyfriend too,and she's been smoking joints since she was about 13
She is so full of shit!! she loves herself so much,she has it in her head she's most famous person on earth!!

She also said she'd never do shows like American Idol,yet she's gonna do Fame Academy,which they'll pass off as ''its for charity'' when in fact its cos her record company are in a panic about how much damage she's doing to her own career
Her new songs are awful,the lyrics are so bad,the production is making them better than they are!!
She's disgusting now,and i used to be a fan!!

She is a first class fool,too far up her own ass and too high to notice ppl laughing at her!!
