Vampire Bill And Sookie Gettin' Hitched, Paris Hilton To Guest Star On Supernatural
One of these stories I can get totally behind, the other brings a herp infected tear to my eye.
In our house, the viewing habits center around the weird, creepy, paranormal and freakish. In the past six months we have watched every episode of Supernatural, Reaper, True Blood, Lost and Dead Like Me. Not to mention Ghost Adventures and now, Ghost Hunters International. There's some kind of theme here, but I think for the sake of all involved we'll just skip that part.
We are pretty obsessed with TrueBlood, an HBO original series centered around the fictional sleepy Louisiana town of Bon Temps, which is based on a series of books by Charlaine Harris, The Southern Vampire Mysteries. The series is a supernatural bonanza featuring a world filled with vampires, shape-shifters, Dionysus goddesses, telepaths, fairies and humans — Southern gothic culture on the skids!
The show, which has become wildly popular, is in its second season, and stars Oscar-winning actress Anna Paquin (The Piano) as telepath Sookie Stackhouse, and up and coming British actor Stephen Moyer, as Bill "Vampire Bill" Compton. Sometime during the filming of the show, Anna/Stephen, Bill/Sookie began dating, making their on-screen romance that much more electrified — the latest news is Stephen and Anna are now engaged. Awwww... From the NYDN:
It's true love for "True Blood" co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer.The real-life couple, who play lovers in the hit HBO vampire series, are engaged to be married, reps for both actors confimed to People.com.
Paquin, 27, will be playing stepmom to Moyer's two children – his 9-year-old son Billy and 7-year-old daughter Lilac – from a previous marriage.
Now with marriage in their future, fans of the co-stars can expect the chemistry on-screen to continue in the show's frequent nude scenes.
"Obviously, if you're already with that person then you're not having to sort of get over the 'Wow, I'm naked with someone that I don't even know the middle name of!'" said the actress.
As for Moyer, 39, his feelings are mutual: "My girl is hardcore."
Despite what seems like a hokey concept, this show is well acted and well written — and the sex scenes are pretty awesome. If only porn were this interesting!
It's not often (in fact NEVER) I sign on to a Hollywood romance, especially one with a 12-year age difference, but I have good feelings about these two and I wish them all the best. Let's just hope Sheriff Eric doesn't come between them (a little True Blood insider talk.) Seriously, if you aren't watching this show, then you get a big fat fail.
