The lady is not for turning!
She may be happily married to her True Blood co-star Stephen Moyer but Anna Paquin is still attracted to women, she insists.

Paquin declared her bisexuality in a public service announcement called Give A Damn, released shortly before she married Moyer in 2010.
Now she’s speaking out again to silence critics who believe her statement was insincere in light of her subsequent nuptials and pregnancy.
"I’m sure for some people saying they’re bisexual feels less scary than making a statement that they’re gay," she told Zooey magazine.
"For me, it’s not really an issue because I’m someone who believes being bisexual is actually a thing. It’s not made up. It’s not a lack of decision. It’s not being greedy or numerous other ignorant things I’ve heard at this point.
"For a bisexual, it’s not about gender. That’s not the deciding factor for who they’re attracted to."
The 29-year-old actress is also outspoken about plastic surgery during the interview.
"Interestingly enough, I don’t really care about my teeth, but I think any woman on this planet could say, 'I wish my ass was smaller, my arms were thinner and I had green eyes not brown,'" Paquin says.
"I think anyone is as critical as they have the energy to self-obsess, but I also know as an actress you are more limited if you interfere with your looks.
"If you have a whole bunch of work done with your teeth and your face and your boobs then you’re only going to play modern people. That’s a big choice to make. Very limiting."
Anna is back on our screens as Sookie Stackhouse in True Blood on June 10.
