Less than a week after becoming husband and wife, True Blood super couple Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer made their first public appearance together at Entertainment Weekly‘s pre-Emmy soiree last night in West Hollywood. Naturally, the main topic of conversation on the red carpet was… the savage yet inevitable death of Bill’s maker, Lorena. Hot topic No. 2? The real story behind that bloody spectacular knock-down, drag-out fight scene between Sookie and Debbie Pelt.

Nude scenes? That’s a breeze, says True Blood star Anna Paquin. But having to drink vampire blood — well, that just sucks.
“I get a kick out it, but the actual blood makes me want to gag!” Paquin tells Self in its July issue on newsstands Tuesday. “It’s kind of a sweet corn syrup, I think, with an aftertaste that’s less than pleasant after the 10th take,” she adds of filming scene for the popular HBO series. “In season one, they asked me if I wanted sugar or sugar-free. I was like, ‘Sugar-free blood? Sounds great!’”
Big mistake: “It only tastes like the latex tubes it’s coming through,” says Paquin, 27, who, in one particular scene had to feed “ravenously from Bill’s arm so I drank probably a gallon. Never again.”
Kissing a vampire, says the actress, is “sharp [and] dangerous” and those famous fangs are top-quality props they’re not allowed to take home.
“Those things are actually really expensive and quite fragile! They are not toys,” she says.
As for why she and fiancee Stephen Moyer, 40, kept their relationship a secret for the first 10 months, Paquin explains the the two costars simply “had a job to do.”
“You don’t want to bring personal stuff to work,” she says. “I’m of the opinion that if it’s nobody’s problem, it’s nobody’s business. But who knows who knew what and when? Clearly Alan Ball, the show’s creator, cast us because we had chemistry!”

NAMES/AGES
Anna Paquin (Sookie), 26; Stephen Moyer (Bill), 39; Sam Trammell (Sam), 38; Ryan Kwanten (Jason), 32; Rutina Wesley (Tara), 29; Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette), 31
WHY THEM
HBO’s vampire drama has the sexiest, sauciest ensemble on TV — one that was willing to suck blood to work with show creator Alan Ball. ”I started stalking him,” says Paquin of her pursuit of Ball for the role of prim but feisty Southern belle Sookie.
PLAYING AGAINST TYPE
As Sookie’s love interest, Moyer’s vampire Bill provides a gentle take on the undead. ”The sex and drug addicts on our show are all human,” contends Moyer. ”They’re the seedy side.” And none more so than androgynous gay fry cook/drug dealer Lafayette. ”I’ve never really heard a character description of a dude wearing lipstick and makeup who’s masculine sometimes,” says Ellis of what drew him to the part. Recognition came more quickly for Wesley, who plays bitter Tara. ”Immediately I got Tara. I saw through her anger straight to her heart.” That’s why Ball’s show isn’t your typical vamp camp. As Kwanten puts it, ”With the depth of characters and substance of our stories, it’s so much more than just a vampire show.” True that.
NEXT
Season 2 will feature wilder story lines and crazier creatures. ”I don’t think it’ll feel like a different show, but it’s definitely going to feel like a bigger show,” says Trammell.
ON THEIR MUST LISTS
Paquin’s fired up over FX’s Rescue Me, while Moyer just finished Willy Vlautin’s The Motel Life.
