Anna Paquin Talks True Blood Sex Scenes

Anna Paquin covers Redbook Magazine August 2012 with the smug look of someone being treated for The Babies thanks to Obamacare. Inside the issue, the 29-year-old explains why it’s not weird shooting sex scenes with someone other than her husband, Stephen Moyer, and dealing with the nudity. Apparently, Alexander Skarsgard’s penis is ‘gentlemanly’ (as are all Euro penises).

  • On how she landed the role of Sookie on True Blood: ‘I’m a big believer in ‘fake it to make it’. I went out and bought some incredibly short shorts and a push-up bra that I knew were going to be a part of my new life. It’s not that I’m a prude, but I’m not a massive exhibitionist, either.’
  • On her image: ‘I’m my harshest critic… but at a certain point, you need to embrace who you are and the whole package that comes along with it. For me, it was cutting myself some slack and not trying to be something that I think is perfect or ideal.’
  • On True Blood scenes with Alexander Skarsgard: ‘We feel completely comfortable together. [My husband Stephen Moyer] and Alex are buddies. Its nothing like, ‘Oh, hi, nice to meet you. Now let’s take off our clothes and go into the fog.’ Everyone is very respectful of each other’s boundaries… They’re all very gentlemanly about it.’
