Which celebrity would you want as your smart speaker voice?
Good afternoon all
I hope your Friday is going well and you're excited for the weekend.
Following the recent news that Amazon Alexa has added two further celebrity voices to it's impressive selection, I was wondering who you would pick as your smart speaker's voice if you had the choice of anybody in the world?
At present, the selection of Amazon's celebrity voices, including Samuel L Jackson, is only available in the US, but fingers crossed the feature will make it's way to the UK soon. You can follow this link to see a full list of Amazon Alexa wake words, along with skills that will enable you to interact with a celebirty voice without receiving full Alexa functionality from it.
For me, I'd pick Michael Caine, he would sound super telling me the weather every morning.
What about you?

Hi @Ross_Scope, for me it would have to be the voice of John Nettles.

Good choice, Ross - I'd probably go for Stephen Fry or Bill Nighy

David Attenborough
Or for fun joe pasquale -
Oooo some awesome choices there! Yes David Attenborough and Stephen Fry would be amazing, they'd be a calming influence for sure
Hugh Laurie would be pleasant tooOnline Community CoordinatorConcerned about another member's safety or wellbeing? Flag your concerns with us.

Groucho Marx sometimes, when dealing with HMRC Russel Crowe.
bearing in mind I don’t know what a smart speaker actually is ?“This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple. Your philosophy is simple kindness.”

I'd say Johnny Depp from Pirates of the Caribbean
Or
Donkey from Shrek who of course is Eddie Murphy
But both of this would be awesome and funny -
Love those suggestions @JamesG
Me and my partner have been watching the Pirates movies lately, having Jack Sparrow as a smart speaker would be awesome.Online Community CoordinatorConcerned about another member's safety or wellbeing? Flag your concerns with us.
