The True Blood cast turned up the heat for their season six premiere in LA last night. Leading couple Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin showed their new-parent glow on the carpet — and finally revealed the names of their baby twins! Plus, we preview the excitement to come on the June 16 premiere of the show, which includes plenty of hotness from Joe Manganiello and Alexander Skarsgard.
Red and gold may be the colors of the San Francisco 49ers, but when used outside of the sports arena, the rich, vibrant hues make for a glamorous pairing makeup-wise. And for True Blood's fifth season premiere in LA, actress Deborah Ann Woll proved just how sharp a combination the warm-toned shades can be.
Makeup artist Kayleen McAdams (who has worked with stars such as Lily Collins, Sofia Vergara, and Rachel McAdams) opted to complement Deborah's geometric, black and white dress with a creamy raspberry lipstick and soft eye makeup. To get the look, McAdams used Benefit Cream Shadow in Birthday Suit ($19) as a base, followed by Tom Ford Eye Color Quad in Silvered Topaz ($75) in the crease. Eyes were then lined with a taupe pencil, and lashes topped off with black mascara. To finish, lips were lined with MAC Lip Pencil in Beet ($14) under Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color in Cosmic Raspberry ($23), for a pop of color and texture.

The beautiful men of True Blood stepped out in LA on Saturday night to discuss their show at the Paley Center. Joe Manganiello and Alexander Skarsgard posed without their respective lady friends, Audra Marie and Kate Bosworth, but Stephen Moyer had his wife and costar Anna Paquin by his side. They headed inside with their fellow HBO stars Rutina Wesley, Ryan Kwanten, Sam Trammell, Kristin Bauer, and Debra Ann Woll to share a bit about their upcoming fourth season. The books, which inspired the series, may be coming to a close, but there's a lot more shirtless goodness for fans to look forward to on HBO. Alexander spoke about his character, Eric, who apparently suffers from amnesia after what went down in the somewhat disappointing last episodes. He said, "This powerful character is just gone—it's not what we've built up over the past three years; it is just gone. And it's a lot of fun for me because it's the polar opposite of who Eric really is. . . He is lost. He doesn't know how he is, he knows he's a vampire, but he slowly finds out stuff, like, 'Did I do that? I killed those people? Why would I do that? Oh. Really?' It's not easy to hear — and not knowing who he can trust, who's a friend or an enemy. He's very vulnerable."
Deborah Ann Woll, who plays baby vamp Jessica on True Blood, recently revealed that her gorgeous titian locks aren't the result of unfairly awesome genetics or a really, really good colorist — it's actually just drugstore dye. Deborah Ann told MARKTBeauty that L'Oreal Excellence Hair Color in Strawberry Blonde 9RB ($7) is her pick. "It's what I've been using for the past 10 years to dye my hair," she revealed. "Affordable and easy to use. Especially since my natural color is so light. Love the subtleness of the shade." We've been coveting Deborah's hair since Jessica arrived in Bon Temps, and if you're a pale natural blonde who'd love to go red without looking ruddy, we'd say Deborah's found an excellent shade solution.
The stars of True Blood gathered at LA's ArcLight Cinemas last night to celebrate the premiere of their third season. A Proenza Schouler-clad Anna Paquin stuck by fiancé Stephen Moyer on the red carpet, and they were joined by costars like Ryan Kwanten, who sweetly brought his mom as his date, and Sam Trammell. Alexander Skarsgard posed for photos solo, but his girlfriend, Kate Bosworth, wasn't far behind in her black cutout dress! There are plenty of reasons to tune into the new episode this Sunday, including the assortment of hot leading men. The guys were on display for a series of minisodes and steamy promos — all of which helped Stephen land two big screen movie roles.

Many of tonight's red carpet trekkers took the slitty road. As in, their gorgeous gowns were hemmed with slits. High, low, demure, sexy, front, side — we saw it all. Deborah Ann Woll took the sexy route, Zoe Saldana opted for drama, while Anna Kendrick's slit was romantic. Proceed to see more slitty frocks.
The True Blood star's lilac gown is sultry and chic, with ruched bodice, jeweled waist, and thigh-high slit. She completes the look with metallic accessories — glitzy handheld clutch, silver heels, and art deco-inspired drop earnings. What do you think?
