These comments from Stephen Moyer, who plays Bill Compton on True Blood are interesting as in all the press I've read and video interviews I've watched of him, I've not ever heard him talk about the fact that he dyes his hair darker for his role as the Bon Temps vampire (those it's quite a bit lighter when True Blood is not in production).
I suppose it is rather annoying too, that he cannot sunbathe as his leading lady both on and off-screen Anna Paquin, plays Sookie Stackhouse, a character known for her great love of the sun and sunbathing. I think someone needs to sit them both down and enlighten them on the risks of sunbathing and skin cancer and then suggest a really good tanning spray!
Stephen Moyer has revealed how he's banned from tanning himself - so he can stay pale for True Blood.The Essex-born actor, who plays vampire Bill Compton in the series, was delighted to move to Los Angeles for the part, only to be told by TV bosses that he can't make the most of the hot weather.
"I couldn't wait to live by the beach and enjoy the weather, then they dye my hair and make me stay out of the sun - I was banned from sunbathing!" he told The Sun.
Stephen - who's engaged to True Blood co-star Anna Paquin - admitted fans often beg him to bite them.
"I don't think my fans are more aggressive than Robert Pattinson's. You don't get much more aggressive than a virginal 14-year-old," he went on.
"But they grab you and think it's OK to touch you - girls, ladies and men. They want to be bitter and want you to break their skin."
*True Blood is on FX at 10pm on Fridays
