True Blood star Alexander Skarsgård apparently made the following comment on how he chooses his girlfriends:
“I don’t go for really dressy women. My family has a small cottage in the middle of nowhere in Sweden, it has no phone, TV or even shower – you have to swim in the lake to wash. I love it. Taking a girl there is a good indicator of whether she’s right for me.”
The source on this is a little sketchy, but as we are both fans of Alex and of lakes, we thought you should know. Update! Full article here.

That would be my heaven…I would love a home like that!
I’m thinking the lake must be a bit on the cold side, no hanky panky happening in there…..at least I don’t think so.
No Aem, the hanky panky comes later whilst drying off before the toasty fire. Or at least that’s where my mind goes…
But when the lake is that cold the fun part is the hanky panky to keep warm :)
He really missed out when he didn’t pick me.
I’m perfect for him. ;)
He’s a handsome guy, but why does he always wear his inseam so oddly low? He looks like the black spy from the old Mad Magazine Spy vs. Spy cartoons! He just needs a hat! :-) It’s one thing not to be dressy, but he could at least wear casual clothes that fit well.
LOL! Fricking hilarious. Now that you mention it…
I was just looking at the colorful bag on his shoulder. lol Maybe his wardrobe is a Sweden thing. I’ve noticed he likes alot of plaids.
Good Grief! Ya`ll are just way too picky about the man. Do you think he would be so apt to notice all your little flaws if you were to meet him in person? Just enjoy the man. He`s a treasure!
hear hear sister!! my friend has met him and he is like the nicest guy around. i am soooo jealous of her.
*sigh*…I do like TB Bill…But AS is definitely a gorgeous man, with a great body. I think he’s a great actor too, as all the cast of TB are. In all the Q&A and interviews I’ve read, AS does seem pretty grounded and down to earth, kind of laid back European attitude. I read a spoiler that “Eric” will be in every episode! The Eric fans must be rejoicing. Poor Bill!
Eric was in every episode last year…..and you’re right, Poor Bill!
I think that would be absolutely amazing. The perfect spot for that intimacy, with no distractions. I would have no problem jumping into that lake with him and helping him wash. ;)
This is a quote from his interview in the March edition of Glamour magazine in the UK
Cathy, you are correct it’s from Glamour. I found that out later today. Happen to have a scan for us?
I will try
Thanks Cathy!
Have just sent it in via email – hope it works!!
Although I’m also a die-hard SM fan, AS is a great-looking guy, very down-to-earth, good sense of humor, etc. And he’s friends with Anna and Steve, so that says alot for him. I’ve bathed in a lake before, and the cabin setting sounds lovely. I’d just like to be there with SM.
*raises hand* Pick me Alex…Pick me!! Just wanted to say that I will glady bathe with Alex in a lake any day!!
He appears to be a nice guy, but sorry, but tall and blond just doesn’t do it for me. Give me dark and blue eyed.
The lake seems like a great idea, but only in summer!!
I just don’t see Kate Bosworth as having any of the qualities he wants as stated in his article.
Anyhow, a nice article/photo for AS followers.
I concur Lizzie. Dark and mysterious does it for me. However, AS is a sure fine piece of specimen…If I was a deserted lake with just him and I, I would jump him for sure. Why not….
