Bindi Irwin shocks fans as she reveals unusual accent during interview
She might be an Aussie icon, but Bindi Irwin sounded remarkably different in a recent interview.
The wildlife conservationist, who has been spending a lot of time in the US over the last few months, appeared on the Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce podcast where she discussed her four-year-old daughter Grace's love of kids show Bluey.
In the interview, the 26-year-old debuted a notable American twang as she spoke about the children's show.
'How big is Bluey in your household?' US-based host Kylie asked her.
'Oh my goodness,' Bindi replied back, mimicking the interviewer with a thick American accent.

'Bluey is life. Bluey is everything,' she added.
Bindi's Australian accent slowly came back as the interview progressed, however her initial twang reflected just how much time Bindi has been spending in the States.
The conservationist recently shared a heartwarming family picture as she visited Disney World in Florida with her husband Chandler Powell and their daughter Grace.
Bindi could be seen posing with her brood in front of the theme park's iconic Cinderella castle in a sweet photo shared to Instagram.
Chandler, 28, carried little Grace, who was dressed for the occasion in a sparkling frock and a Mickey Mouse hat, as Bindi held her husband's hand and smiled.
'May was an incredible month,' Chandler captioned the family photo.
The former wake-board champion then listed some moments the family shared, including Bindi's shock medical emergency which emerged as a blessing in disguise.
'Visiting my family in Florida, Bindi getting life changing surgery, Oregon adventures, and Disney all together,' he wrote.
'Very grateful,' Chandler finished off the post, which has garnered over 33,000 likes.
In May, Bindi was rushed to hospital just hours after touching down in Las Vegas for a gala honouring her late father Steve Irwin.
She suffered a ruptured appendix and was raced into surgery, missing the prestigious event she was due to attend alongside brother Robert Irwin and mother Terri Irwin.
In an Instagram post, Bindi revealed while her appendix was removed, doctors discovered another 14 lesions from her endometriosis. These were also successfully removed.
She also had a large hernia repaired which had developed after giving birth to daughter Grace in 2021.

John Travolta transforms into Grease character Danny Zuko for sing-along event

The actor, 71, stepped back in time to reprise his role as Danny Zuko from the 1978 hit musical. She shared on social media: 'Tonight at the Hollywood Bowl, for the first time I surprised everyone at the Grease sing-along and dressed up as Danny Zuko.' Go, greased lightnin': He reprised his role as Danny Zuko from the 1978 hit musical He added: 'No one knew. Not even the cast. Thank you for a great evening.' He adopted his character's swagger as he stepped on stage wearing dark jeans, a tight black T-shirt, and a black leather jacket. The actor, who has been sporting a shaved head, wore a wig styled into a greaser-friendly ducktail, along with a scruffy beard. He then joined Grease cast members Didi Conn, Barry Pearl, Michael Tucci, Kelly Ward, and director Randal Kleiser on stage. Taking the microphone, Travolta delivered some of his iconic lines from the moment Danny reunites with his Summer Nights sweetheart Sandy (played by the late Olivia Newton-John) on the first day of school at Rydell High. 'I thought you were going back to Australia!' and then remembering he was the big man on campus, dropped into the nonchalant, 'that's cool, that's cool, that's cool baby,' I'm rockin' and rollin' and whatnot.' He then led the cast and audience in a chant of 'A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-lop-bam-boom!' Standing in front of a big screen, he then told the crowd, 'Enjoy the show. We love you!'

Soccer culture clash at Club World Cup as American woman reports Argentine fans to cops over 'throwing beer and shoving' - but they say SHE was wrong
A clash of cultures erupted at Seattle's Lumen Field during the Club World Cup as an American woman reported a group of Argentine fans to stadium staff and police. The tensions occurred during Inter Milan 's 2-0 victory over River Plate earlier in the week - a match that was heated on the pitch as well, with the Buenos Aires side receiving two red cards and six booking issued in total. The woman described being surrounded by River fans who refused to respect assigned seating and crowded into her section in raucous fashion. She explained on social media that the situation turned physical when she confronted the fans, claiming they threw beer on her and shoved her boyfriend away. She called security, and eventually local police arrived to intervene. The woman could be heard screaming in a video uploaded on TikTok: 'This is our seat, we paid for the seat.' One of the River fans responded: 'We paid too,' before the American woman demanded they showed their tickets. @_jung_kook_wifey We approach them with our tickets in our hand and they're like 'there's no assigned seats' like we don't go to almost every Sounder game and know the drill. They got aggressive real quick throwing beer and shoving my bf and pulling my hair. #ClubWorldCup ♬ original sound - lou ❀𓇼𓏲☘︎ River Plate fans ignored ticket allocations and sat in her set, leading to a heated confrontation The woman alleged that beer was thrown on her hair and that her boyfriend was shoved away The River fan then said: 'You can sit anywhere, it doesn't matter [about] your ticket,' much to the woman's frustration, who insisted again: 'It does. This is our seat, we paid for the seat.' In South American football culture, supporters often cluster together and ignore seat assignments on their tickets. The woman recognised this, but argued that these norms do not override the fact she paid for a specific seat. She wrote on TikTok: 'I can support futbol culture but that does not mean disregarding the stadium's rules or jurisdiction. 'This was not a general admission event! Otherwise, tickets would have been priced THE SAME. 'Choosing to ignore assigned seating - and worse, attempting to physically intimidate or assault others out of their PAID spaces - is not only entitled, it's unlawful. 'You cannot assault your way into getting what you want just because you are not 'used to the customs set in place.' However, many fans under the woman's video did not extend any sympathy, arguing she should have been prepared for a culture clash before buying her tickets. The woman went on to accuse one fan of swearing and smoking a cigarette in the ground One fan commented: 'In South America your ticket gets you into the stands and no seat allocation as no one sits down anyway. The seats are a free for fall, if you come late. You lose out. So happy Americans are getting a taste of real football.' Another wrote: 'That's how it works in ultras sector. You should know that before you buy tickets.' A third said: 'To be fair in South America and many countries, seat allocations don't matter. You sit where there's space.' The woman shared more details of the incident in another slideshow on TikTok, where she went on to reveal that one man was also swearing at her and smoking a cigarette in the ground.

Jeff Fenech breaks silence on his daughter's big baby announcement with NRL star Bradman Best - after saying he didn't want her to date a footy player
Aussie boxing legend Jeff Fenech has spoken of his pride after his daughter Kayla announced she and NRL star Bradman Best were expecting a baby. The former IBF and WBC title holder had previously stated that he didn't want his daughter to date a rugby league player but has now changed his tune after meeting the Newcastle Knights star. Kayla and Best announced that they were expecting a baby in 2026 on Instagram last week. 'Baby Best due in January 2026. We can't wait,' Kayla wrote on the social media platform. But despite his earlier comments, Fenech has now spoken of his delight at the news. 'They are so happy,' he told The Daily Telegraph. 'And I'm so proud of both of them. Whether it's a boy or a girl, the baby is going to have some great genes. 'And they'll be great parents. You know how much I love Kayla and Bradman is a great fella who will make a great dad.' Fenech said he went 'apes***' when he found out his daughter was dating a footy player. 'I'd always warned my girls about going out with league players,' he had previously said. He added: 'So when she rang and told me, I went off the deep end. I gave her a roasting. She kept trying to say, "Dad, he's a lovely guy". Kayla was telling me every day how nice he was.' But it his opinion has changed since meeting Best, with Fenech, one of the country's greatest fighters, now also having gone down to the gym to train with the footy star. 'Bradman knew I was angry, but he told Kayla, "I'll prove your dad wrong" - and he has,' Fenech added. Kayla has over 200,000 followers on Instagram and works as a business development manager for Ray White. He added that he was 'so proud' of the pair having also previously revealed that he and Best had gone down to the gym to train together After announcing the big news on Instagram last week, the pair received a heartfelt reception from many of their close friends and family. Her mother, Suzee, wrote in the comments: 'Omg I'm so proud of you both, can't wait to meet my gorgeous little bubba. 'Super excited to be on this next chapter/journey with you both. Luv u both.' Jeff has also previously sung Best's praises and lifted the lid on how their training went. 'Maybe he was trying to impress his future father-in-law,' Fenech said. He was very impressive when we trained. 'When we first met, you could tell he was a good young man. He's treating Kayla beautifully. Like a gentleman. They're very happy. And so is my wife Suzee and I. 'The only time I got dirty is when he scored two tries against my Parramatta side last weekend and beat us.'
