Anna Paquin in Bikini Covers Self Magazine July 2010


In the latest issue of Self, cover girl Paquin, all pretty in bikinis and come-hither glances, relegates the Twilight franchise to a teen cult, saying, among other things, that she's "never seen" any of the movies and that "chastity is appropriate for younger crowds."

Paquin also confirmed our True Blood insider's take on her discreet relationship with live-in love Stephen Moyer

On the media: "I'm sorry that at 6 a.m., when I walk my dog, I don't look ready to hit the red carpet. And yes, I wear a helmet when I ride my bike. Seriously, I was made fun of for wearing a bicycle helmet. I was like, OK, that would be a really stupid reason to die. At that point, I was done."

On Twilight the phenomenon: "I've never seen any of the movies, so I have very few thoughts about them. But I'm sure if I were a teenager, I'd love it! Chastity is appropriate for younger crowds. As a kid, you don't need to see us on True Blood sucking and screwing all the time."

On why America's obsessed with vampires: "I'm going to go with: They're sexy, dangerous and good-looking, and they generally seem to be having more fun."

On being bisexual: "I grew up in an open-minded, supportive family, so my sexuality was never stigmatized or scary or out of bounds. I'm comfortable with who I am, and it's not an issue."

On dating her costar: "Obviously, there's no guarantee that it won't be complicated, but it's not like we went into it completely blind. You can't choose who you fall in love with. It's a luxury to get to work with the person I want to spend the rest of my life with."

On kissing a vampire: "Sharp. Dangerous."

On drinking blood: "I get a kick out of it, but the actual blood makes me want to gag! It's some kind of sweet corn syrup, I think, with an aftertaste that's less than pleasant after the 10th take. In season one, they asked me if I wanted sugar or sugar-free. I was, like, ‘sugar-free blood? Sounds great!' Big mistake. Because then it only tastes like the latex tubes it's coming through."

Zoe Saldana Does Self

Zoe Saldana shows off her gorgeous smile on the May 2010 cover of Self magazine.

Here’s what the 31-year-old actress had to share:

On her personal style: “‘Pretty’ is the last word you would think of. Look in my closet and you’ll see things that are elegant, sexy, tomboyish, sophisticated, beautiful, aggressive. It’s harsh. It’s a lot of black. I’ve never really been that feminine.”

On getting dressy for special occasions: “Sometimes you’re sexy confident or you’re aggressive confident. When I’m sexy confident, I always want to wear red pumps. The more disheveled they got, the more I loved them. My mom said, ‘Zoe, honestly, you can wear boots that are worn, but red heels? It just looks wrong.’ But I haven’t thrown them away yet. As long as I’m not out with my mom, I will wear them!”

On her style rule: “You should never feel as if you’re hiding. My stylist [chooses clothes that] complement my personality, my character.”

Jessica Alba Smiles in Self

Jessica Alba looks adorable as ever in a DKNY top and Citizens of Humanity corduroys on the February 2010 cover of Self Magazine. Here are the fun facts the 28-year-old actress spilled:

On being a politician if she wasn’t an actress:
“I used to think being a marine biologist would be the best thing ever, but now that I’ve grown up and seen things in the world, I think politics. Advocating and lobbying for certain issues would be a pretty interesting way to live your life… When I was in Washington, D.C., I got to meet Nancy Pelosi. She was so warm. I just grinned from ear to ear with my mouth open and my eyes bulging out of my head! Afterward, I called Cash and totally geeked out. I was beside myself. Tickled pink! The fact that a woman is speaker of the house? Oh, my God!”

On how she blows off steam:
“Honor is the best cure for stress. When I spend time with her, I get instant perspective. I can be hard on myself if I don’t do everything perfectly. But now that I have her, there’s no time for that. I want to teach her that you can learn from your mistakes, and if you keep moving and stay positive and loving, everything will work out.”

On what she does in the Internet:
“I’ve bought 70 percent of my house off CraigsList! I’ve found so many things: couches, tables, lamps. I love the idea of recycling furniture and there being a history there.”

On her marriage:
“I love the way I feel after Cash and I wake up. Or talk on the phone. Everything! Every time I see him or talk to him, I fall in love with him all over again.”

On life in 10 years:
“I’d love to be raising my kids on a farm in the South of France. My mother-in-law has lived there for more than 20 years, and she has a beautiful setup. I want to be able to allow Honor and my other kids, who I hope to be blessed with in the future, to maintain their innocence for as long as possible. There is so much time to be an adult.”
