How long until it would be annoying to be a hot girl with a French accent in the US? [View all]

So at my high school reunion this one girl flew in from LA, and brought her friend with her. Her friend living in LA now is actually originally from France and still has her accent. I recognized her as French just by her asking me leaning on the wall where the reunion check-in room was. As soon as this became public knowledge, there was basically no point where guys were leaving her alone for the rest of the night. Yes she was also hot and hotter than her friend (who wasn't bad looking by any reasonable standard either) but still got a disproportionate amount of annoying attention. The first night my buddy from high school who had been in France for six months in college admitted that he told her "Je t'aime" by the end of the night, which unsurprisingly resulted in her trying to ignore him the next night. I did feel kind of bad for her having to go to a little backwater like North Dakota where the bars close at 1AM and you can't bring your drinks onto the street, something she pointed out as dumb.

But I suppose one upside is that she basically never has to pay for a drink.
