No, no we/they do not ... There is a distinct accent to many native Dutch speakers when they speak English. Besides pronunciation and grammar mistakes, there can also occur semantic confusion due to words that are pronounced or spelled much the same, but mean different things in the two languages (which are fairly close related).
Something (english-speaking) comedians at times will poke (some good) fun at:



Or just youtube some Dutch politicians speaking English, you'll get the picture..

However, due to being taught English from an early age on in school and the ubiquity of English in the media (also with film/tv being subtitled rather than voice-over) and daily life in general, people learn a passable accent, young people and internationally oriented people like the ones you mentioned even more so.

Good to hear from someone whos actually from Netherlands! Hollywood propaganda has made me think of Goldmember from Austin Powers when I think of dutch accent. "farsha" instead of "father".

not to mention Eurotrip, where Lucy Lawless (the dominatrix in the sexclub) had almost an east European accent that was supposed to be dutch.
(including several scandinavian and russian characters in the password which are never used in the dutch language, the Æ for example)

People that have the distinct accent is most people born before 1960... Well those people, and most politicians...
(the breaking point is when British and American TV-series started kicking in on dutch tv)

Gogo Ret the uberdroner!

gotta support fellow dutchmen ^^
