Stephen Moyer: Anna’s Pregnancy Brings the ‘Crazy’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Pregnancies, Features,
The 42-year-old actor - who has kids Billy, 12, and 10-year-old Lilac from previous relationships - and his 29-year-old wife are expecting a baby together and the True Blood star can't wait to be a dad again.
"I love my kids so much. And I think that the fact that Anna is pregnant just adds more crazy to the bundle of fun," he said.
Anna - who plays telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse on True Blood - is enjoying her pregnancy and is not experiencing any ill-effects. However, her expanding baby bump is causing problems for the show's writers because they are trying to conceal her pregnancy.
"So, in the last few episodes, Sookie's holding a big purse in front of her at all times. I actually heard from the costume designer about midway through the season, she went, 'Sookie can't wear a Merlotte's [restaurant] T-shirt anymore.' And I went, 'Well, it's a good thing Sookie isn't really at Merlotte's anymore, she's basically trying to save the world.' So, we'll put her in loose-fitting, save the world outfits," creator Alan Ball explained.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Engagements, Weddings,
Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin have married.
The True Blood co-stars - who announced their engagement last year - got married on Saturday evening in California. According to Us Weekly, the couple - who have been dating since filming the pilot episode of the vampire drama in 2007 - exchanged vows beneath a tent at a private residence across the street from the beach in Malibu.
Guests included actor Elijah Wood and the pair’s fellow True Blood co-star Carrie Preston along with her husband, Lost actor Michael Emerson. No further details were available at the time of writing.
British star Stephen - who portrays vampire Bill Compton to Anna’s Sookie Stackhouse - recently admitted he decided to propose to the TV beauty earlier this month because it would be “ridiculous” to keep calling her his girlfriend. Stephen - who has two children, Billy, 10, and Lilac, eight, from previous relationships, but has never been married before - said, “It got to the point where I just was thinking, ‘You are calling somebody who you intend to stay with for the rest of your life your girlfriend.”

Stephen Moyer Says Producers Forced Him to Date Anna
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Dating, Engagements, Hook-ups,
British hunk Stephen Moyer thinks that his TV bosses wanted him to date Anna Paquin.
The True Blood actor - who got engaged to his co-star last August - claims staff at network HBO tried their best to bring them together by booking them into the same hotel during filming of the pilot episode:
“They put us in the same hotel - though in not the same room to begin with. No, I’m joking. They put us in these hotel suites, and we hung out for a while and got to know each other. The attraction was there, so it was a matter of whether we acted on it or not.”
While he is blissfully happy with 27-year-old Anna, Stephen - who plays vampire Bill Compton in the show - admits he was reluctant to get romantically involved with her at first in case it destroyed the future of the program. He added in an interview with Details magazine, “To get a pilot that runs to a series, it’s big s**t to people. And so to come along and go, ‘Oh, let’s have a quick f**k’ and then risk arguing and being a nightmare when you’re playing the two people who are together the whole time - that would be immature.”
Stephen, 40, has been dating Anna - who plays Sookie Stackhouse - since 2007 but insists they won’t marry “until at least 2020.”
Snoop Dogg: From Rapper to Vampire?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television,
Snoop Dogg wants to be a vampire. The “Gangsta Luv” rapper is a huge fan of True Blood and is keen to land a role on the hit US TV horror series.
“I love that show. I wish I could be on it. I’d be a hell of a vampire, don’t you think?” he said. “So what’s happenin’? True Blood, get at me - Snoop Dogg wants to be a vampire.”
The occasional actor is so eager to appear on the HBO program, he has even paid tribute to it on his new song “Gangsta Luv” - the first single from his upcoming album Malice N Wonderland. In it, he raps: “Everyday is the same thang, I creep in/ It’s like True Blood, I sink my teeth in/ I gotta have it.”
Snoop isn’t the only star to recently confess an interest in undead blood-sucking creatures. Talking about her favorite type of movie, Katie Holmes said: “It can be any genre. I even like vampire movies - they just have to be well done. I want to believe in the characters. The minute it starts to feel not real, I’m not interested.”
Co-Star Had No Idea About Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Television, Dating, Engagements, Rumors,
So maybe True Blood‘s Ryan Kwanten not having a clue about co-stars Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin’s relationship wasn’t necessarily his fault. Turns out their other co-star, Sam Trammell, had not a clue, either!
In a post-Emmy party, Trammell, who plays the shapeshifter Sam Merlotte on the hit vampire show, revealed that he didn’t see it coming: “I think they’re both just really independent, really talented people, and they just kind of fit together… They’re so professional, I had no idea they were together at first. And then I had no idea he’d proposed to her.”
Don’t count on fiction meshing with reality here—Sam, whose character is in love with Anna’s Sookie despite her relationship with vampire Bill (Moyer), has nothing but good wishes for the newly-engaged: “They’ve been together a long time, and it’s working out. I’m happy for them.”
Head over to People for the full video clip of Sam’s interview.

Unfortunately we won’t be seeing his “grumpy little sod” (his words, not ours) walk down with the rings just yet—Moyer and Anna have yet to pick a date!
“We haven’t planned anything. People say, ‘You are engaged to be married,’ and I’m like, ‘Really? I thought we were just engaged.’”
Oh, you silly silly vampire!
