According to British people we either have redneck, valley girl, or ghetto.

The people in this video are all horrible. Apparently, one of the reasons why British people tend to go for the southern accent is because it is easier for them to do.
I have also hard that we are known for the hard "R'" (although there are some variations of the New England dialect that use the soft "R") and can sound nasily.
I hear that because Brits have a hard time hitting the hard "R's", if you want to fuck with British people ask them to say the word "Mirror" with an American accent.
I'm going to go off topic for a moment, if there is no British accent that what the hell are we supposed to call the collective family of dialects that exist within the realm of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland? Just as is there is no one American accent (try to tell a Dixie they sound like a Yank) but to call them all American is fair game. Then again I hear that British people take accents more seriously, plus foreigners do tend to jump to posh or cockney when they think of British accent. I'm not trying to be offensive but what are we supposed to collectively call them?
