As I mentioned the other day, Anna is on the cover of the Memorial Day issue of Hamptons Magazine. It’s not on newsstands in NYC just yet, but I keep checking daily. PopEater does however have a sneak peek at that article with a snippet of the interview and photos. You can check it out below.

From PopEater:

Actress Anna Paquin seems to have it all. Not only is she starring in the hit TV show ‘True Blood,’ Paquin has also scored a Golden Globe win for her role and found love with her costar Stephen Moyer. “Steve and I had a certain instant connection … It doesn’t hurt when the relationship on screen that you’re trying to create is one of attraction and fascination,” she told Hamptons Magazine.

On playing her character, Sookie Stackhouse: “[She is] her own little action star. I get blooded and vomited on and beat up — everything that the girl doesn’t usually get to do in a show or film because they’re usually the girlfriend.”

On winning a Golden Globe: “The Golden Globe feels pretty damn good because I’m an adult, and it’s the first major recognition I’ve had for my work as a non-child. Even though I’m only 26, I’ve been working since I was nine, so it feels like I worked for it.”

How she’s managed to stay grounded: “I came up through the ranks before the tabloid media became what it is currently. It wasn’t as much as a feeding frenzy. I guess that’s more good luck than good management. There was very little time to be affected, and my family didn’t value that. I was usually at work or at school or at home doing my homework.”
