Well, actually the woman who plays her is.  Unlike recent self serving outings (Ricky Martin, Sean Hayes), this announcement did catch people off guard.

Anna Paquin of True Blood and the X-Men has come out as bi-sexual in a PSA for Cyndi Lauper’s  True Colors Fund which promotes Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual, and Transgender equality.  In the spot, the 27 year old actress announces “I’m Anna Paquin. I’m bisexual, and I give a damn“.

Apparently, no one knew she was going to do this prior to filming the spot.  Wonder if her fiance and co-star Stephen Moyer (Bill Compton) knew about her orientation before-hand?

An even better question, when is Alexsander Skarsgaard (Eric) going to make a lot of gays happy and follow suit?  (Sadly, probably never).
