See I couldn't really ever be bothered by Miss Cleo because it was soooo fake. She was a tv psychic. Come on. Even people in the Mid-West who've never seen a picture of a West Indian (other than Bob Marley) knew her accent was fake.
I am just convinced that people can't hear themselves. No one who could hear their own words would do it.
