Joss Stone has complained that it is unfair that she is criticised for having an Americanised accent.
The singer, who was mocked for talking with an American twang at last year's Brit Awards, has defended the alteration in her voice since she recorded her last album.
Stone told The Independent: "At the end of the day, I don't give a f**k if people have a problem with my accent. That's all I can say about it.
"The words I say do not change. If the way that it sounds is skew-whiff and you don't like it, don't listen. I'm not being a cruel person by sounding a different way. I made my album with a bunch of Americans.
"When people go to Australia for two weeks they come back sounding Australian, but the whole world doesn't turn round and say, 'Well, f**k you.' Which is basically what England had done.
"Obviously not everybody in England. But the big press people. They were just like, 'You know what? We've decided we don't like you anymore'."
