Why Does Mikayla Nogueira's Boston Accent Come and Go?

Jay Shetty says the accent has always been one of the biggest talking points in Mikayla Nogueira's content. She says viewers will be asking where it is. The first video she posted in which she talked had no accent, and that is the video that changed her life. A few videos later the accent appeared and people were confused. She says she does have an accent, and it can be as strong as in the videos. She studied communication and radio and code-switches. With Jay Shetty she is not using the heavy Boston accent, because she just met him and is not comfortable yet. She says a lot of people cannot understand it. It comes out around friends and family, and when she films alone and is talking to herself.

She has told the audience the same thing many times. Because people make fun of the accent, she sometimes exaggerates it, including a Kim Kardashian meme where she was being a goofball. She says she is an entertainer, and a video can work because people love it or because they are too annoyed to look away.
