“I get more naked this season than I did last season,” she says, adding later, “We have a really great crew and everyone’s really respectful. It’s not an issue for me.”

But it does mean a lot more time at the gym.

“I work my ass off,” Paquin says. “I’m very careful about what I eat, and I work out a lot. My costume entails bathing suits, short-shorts and nude scenes, come on! I don’t want to be perpetuating the myth that women actually do look exactly like the way they look in magazines and on television through absolutely no effort!”

About the show she says…..

“The stories are exciting and sexy and scary and engaging. The characters are all very, very, clearly drawn and real, even though we take place in a very sort of surreal world, and it keeps you on the edge of your seat,” Paquin says. “And every time you think things are going to go smoothly, something really effed up happens.”

There has also been a lot of comparison of True Blood with Twilight.  As a True Blood fan I know that there are some similarities sure….vampires, hot kisses, great actors and actress but really?  I don’t think so and neither does Anna *Sokie*.

“They’re completely different age groups that they’re trying to appeal to,” says  the Oscar and Golden Globe winner .  “It wouldn’t be appropriate for teenagers to be watching our show. I wouldn’t have been allowed to.”
