Well, I'll tell you. You don't sound quite like Kate Winslet but what do I know. I will say that it is a sneaky but clever way to advertise a product. On the other hand, I can actually hear the 't' in 'disappointed', something I'm afraid you'll never hear from me --- due to my sloppy American English.
Do I have like a mixed 50/50 accent?

If I were you, I would practice to speak fluent English first, and then some certain accent. (I mean, in my opinion, your English speaking doesn't sound very smooth. I think it is a more important issue than the accent.)

The music is too much of a distraction.

It's an Asian accent with some British in there for me.

Do I sound British at all?

GSL,

Your English sounds a LOT more like British English than American English. Do you know which words you used that sounded like British English?
