I don't think they even necessarily have to be American born. It's probably because they are young and therefore more likely to have been influenced by all things American.
A similar thing shows up in soaps that have been written by younger scriptwriters when they have the elderly characters saying "cool", "big ask" and "no brainer" etc. etc.
