Kyra Sedgwick's fake accent

Why is that Hollywood stars cannot get the Southern accent right?
Even foreigners can hear something strange about Kyra Sedgwick Southern accent in ''The Closer''.
At 1st, I thought she was an English actress trying to put on a Southern accent. But I was wrong, she is from NYC.
She sounds too artificial. I think they should have hired someone who sounded more natural.
