During a speech to Al Sharpton's annual National Action Network conference in New York City Friday, freshman Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sounded quite different than she usually does.
Ocasio-Cortez speaks in an accent that she never uses while telling a room of predominately black people that there is nothing wrong with them folding clothes, cooking, and driving other people around on a bus for a living. pic.twitter.com/FIbIAPokt0

It appears she came up with a brand new accent for the speech.
While the media is running praise filled headlines like, "I'm proud to be a bartender," about her remarks, others noticed the change and are calling her out.
Hey, @AOC I wore the vest because CBP told me to but, what’s your excuse for talking like this?! #WedontTalkLikeThat https://t.co/4i5qQLNbNZ

Unbelievable how talented @AOC is...

Just one week ago she had a completely different accent, she picked a brand new accent in less than seven days.
Amazing! https://t.co/BI0xZgSmd0

And before AOC fires back about the "GOP" demeaning bartending, that's now what's happening here.
True, every word.

Here's a flashback to the many times twice failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton also faked an accent.
