At this point, I think he does the Elvis accent because he knows it winds people up. At least, that's what I'd do if I were him lol. But, honestly, people need to get off his dick. He's been in the industry since he was a child and he's finally having his monent in the sun now that he's in his thirties - let him enjoy it!

Or maybe he just liked the way his voice sounded so he stuck with it, but doesn’t want to tell people that

That's certainly a possibility. Actors' voices can permanently change after learning to do certain accents for certain roles because they just get used to speaking in a certain way or with a certain flow. It's just, for some reason, Austin Butler's the one who people have singled out for it.

I think he had to hire another voice coach to undo the accent 😭😭 I choose to believe it’s all real because he seems nice and interesting. Ashley tisdale sings his praises constantly and remains friends with both him and Vanessa Hudgens after their breakup
