    "So I'm an actor," she began. "I grew up in the public eye. I grew up in America. I come to set and I'm an actor and I adapt. And so I want to mimic people."

    She continued, saying, "I can't help that when I'm around my fiancé, or I'm around people like Jimmy Fallon, who have very American accents, I wanna replicate it!"

    "I don't do it intentional[ly], and I'm sorry if it offends you. But listen, I'm trying my best," Millie concluded, as Max chimed in to say Millie can do "whatever she wants."
