Alexander Skarsgard: Urth Cafe Coffee Man

Alexander Skarsgard: Urth Cafe Coffee Man

Alexander Skarsgard leaves the Urth Cafe after grabbing a cup of coffee on Friday (November 12) in Los Angeles.

Earlier this week, the 34-year-old True Blood star visited his girlfriend Kate Bosworth on the set of her movie BFF & Baby.

Last month, the couple went to the movies together on a date night after spending the night together the day before at the Scream Awards.

Alexander‘s True Blood co-star Ryan Kwanten is one of Gap‘s new faces. He is featured in the holiday ad campaign along with fellow Aussie Isabel Lucas.

omg, he is so beautiful!

# 2

Wow. He is an amazing guy. I wish he would smile more.

# 3

so hot! he looks perfect!

# 4

why do you feel the need to mention KB when it’s about Alex, yet when you posted all the pics from the BFF and Baby set you never mentioned him?

# 5

he has a huge head.

# 6

@mary: To be fair, he also mentioned Ryan Kwanten.

# 7

He should straighten up.

Delicious!!!

THANKS GOD!HE IS ALONE….! IN THE PICTURE..! ITS SO NICE TO SEE HIM ALONE!!!!!

Is anyone else over him or is it just me?
Lately the overexposure of him and his relationship has completely turned me off from him. Don’t get me wrong I still think he’s gorgeous, but to me he’s just lost some of the charm that made me adore him so much when he came onto the hollywood scene.

what a gorgeous man <3

Reality check @ 11/12/2010 at 5:11 pm

So disproportionate!!! He’s tall, that’s ASkars. Tall and swedish.

@just me
That can be said of any and every actor for a lot reasons. At least Alex has not harmed anyone or broken any laws, unlike most. Jeez, some of you acted like he goes around kicking puppies. Hello, Charlie Sheen or Mel Gibson anyone???

Alexander looks so hot! I wonder when they will start filming season 4 of True Blood. I can’t wait to see new pictures of Eric, Sookie, Bill and the rest of the cast.

Don't be jealous @ 11/12/2010 at 5:18 pm

I had sex with him in my dream last night. (sigh)

*Skargasim* Love Alex !

EEEeeeee, comments so funny!

tall and delicious. my ideal man!

TrueBlade @ 11/12/2010 at 5:44 pm

So the none famewhoring ,very private Ryan Kwanten gets voice work in the Legend of the Guardians, will be seen as Charles Manson in what will probably be a critical success. Now he’s one of the new faces of Gap.

Famewhoring and bad company has gotten AS Battleship, and an ad campaign for Hickey Freeman. Btw, has anyone seen the ads anywhere??? His IMDB status is down. According to Google trends people aren’t googling him as much. Oh yeah, he’s a staple on JJ. Exactly what casting agents and producers are looking for.

Well done, AS!.

Sorry but I agree with @just me. He has definitely lost some luster after the Kate Bosworth thing. Besides, his acting is okay but nothing to write home about seriously!! Funny, how JJ is now mentioning Ryan Kwanten again about the Gap ad. JJ ignored the fabulousness that is Ryan both professionally and looks wise. Now that he scored the role of Manson(which lots of actors wanted!!) he and everyone else is taking a real look at him now. Ryan looks absolutely adorable in the Gap ads. And he is going to keep shining on and on and on even after the ridiculous that is the Askars/Bosworth show.
Hey JJ why don’t you post more about the following now because they are going to be REALLY huge very soon:
1) Joel Kinnaman- hello, Snabba Cash was AWESOME!!!!! Check it out. Gorgeous too!!! REALLY HOT!!!
2) Chris Pine
3) Chris Hemsworth
Whatever, just so over Skarsgard and his pap famewhoring ways.

@just me: Completely agree with you.

Oh, and JJ you can continue to write about Ryan Kwanten all you want because he actually has talent to back it up. He will be an even bigger success than AS and he does not a fame junkie which makes everyone love him even more.

Great Job Ryan!! You are a professional ACTOR!! Not a professional FAMEWHORE!!!

sadly as much as we hate beigeworthless and alex together there is not much we can do!!! I don’t why JJ has mentioned the set visit all of a sudden that was Tuesday HELLO JJ it’s now Friday.
also we have very limited photoes the day alex visited kate, gossip states he brought lunch for kate and she was delighted when alex visited well it’s clear from the recent JJ pics her face expression looked angry and it was clear she was eating from the craft table (well she pretended to eat).

also we do not know what time alex actually came onto the set maybe after kate had her pretend dinner with the cast and then alex grabed his lunch arrived and sat in her trailer waiting for kate that proberbly upset kate no photo opportunity to be seen with him

my question if alex wanted to visit kate why hide in her trailer pretending not to be seen when he clearly new he would be paped and there were no tweet sighting’s.
and beigeworthless co-star has been tweeting none stop about the movie with tweet pics why not tweet about kate’s SUPPOSED BF arriving she must have seen him on the set?? does that not make news. and how come the paps did not get any pics of alex leaving the set but they can get pics of alex arriving hmmm it’s just a little strange

He’s cute but let’s face it, he’s nothing more then a prime time soap actor. He’s our modern day version of Luke Perry – remember him? Where is he now? Askars better enjoy this ride he’s having because it will be OVER probably a lot sooner then he thinks.
Maybe his fall back plan is to famewhore with bosworthless?? Oh wait they both already are that.

Don't be jealous @ 11/12/2010 at 5:53 pm

@Linda: They started filming at the end of October.

TrueBlade @ 11/12/2010 at 6:06 pm

I have decided to come clean…

The reason I hate on Alex is because I am a crazy jealous fan girl who cant bear the thought of my imaginary boyfriend with anyone but me!

* Damn Kate for daring to put her hands on him!

* Damn Alex for not knowing who I am or giving a shi* I exist!

* And Damn Damn Damn him for daring to not listen to all his CRAZY fan girls who know all and will ruin him unless he obeys!!!!

He’s walking like he doesn’t know the paps were called!!
.
Alex you’re such a fake!

Very happy to see photos of Alex ALONE. Looks gorgeous as usual!

How sad the life of some people here. Why don’t you do a forum for Ryan Kwanten if he is so wonderful and will be the next bigger star? Ahhh, maybe because there is something about Ryan…

Ohhh, but talking about Alex is more fun. Trash him all you want, but you are talking about him.

“According to Google trends people aren’t googling him as much.”

Well, I think people here is proof people love to “google” him. To love or to hate, you need to talk about ASkars. LOL!

slanted view @ 11/12/2010 at 6:15 pm

@Don’t be jealous: Are you speaking of TB? They don’t start filming until end of November. They’re just doing casting now. So he’s got some free time between now and then. Buckle up kids, more JJ postings ahead!

He’s walking like he doesn’t know the paps were called!!

Alex you’re such a fake!

Visting Bedlem @ 11/12/2010 at 6:16 pm

@Mandy: Brave girl for interactting with the crazies! I agree with everything you’ve said bythe way, sadly however here they just love to hate!

@Rita: I know right, Dude, we all know you called the paps. No need to pretend they’re not there. lol.

Sorry but it is NOT good when all the talk you are getting is how pathetic you are and all the talk about your friends and co-stars is what NEW parts they are getting. Sorry but Alex’s ship has sailed. It was overkill and now he is just done!!

@Mandy
About 20 haters are going disagree with your (and my) comment, but yes! to every thing you just said.

34 years brat trying to make it big in Hollywood!
Is too late dude
funny: http://twitter.com/AlexTheStupid http://twitter.com/AlexSkarstrash

BTW watch Snabba Cash- the Swedish version!! Then you will see what amazing actors can actually come out of Sweden. His name is Joel Kinnaman and the man is BA-NA-NAS HOT!!! The movie is so rockin’ that they are doing a remake in America. Joel will get to do the two sequels(yeah…that good) in Sweden. Yum!! But seriously that is a great actor with lots and lots and lots of RANGE!! Not lots and lots and lots of PAPS on speed dial. Hahahahaha!!! Big difference.
Wow, Alex has learned from one of the best famewhores in the business and he is really working the uselessness factor now. I really thought he would be awesome but now such a disappointment. Thought he had real talent but in comparison to Joel and others it turns out to be a lot of smoke and mirros and hoopla and then…No Climax!! hehehehe

Wilson's Way @ 11/12/2010 at 6:25 pm

He should come out of the closet.

Wilson's Way @ 11/12/2010 at 6:27 pm

He could help a lot of people.

why is he getting compared to ryan kwanten… alex is way hotter and much more talented!! and jared why must you mention kate on this post?? it would of been perfect if it were just about alex!

@tanya:
Joel Kinnaman may be a very good actor but he’s so f’ing ugly. A face only a mother could love.

evathediva @ 11/12/2010 at 6:30 pm

Perhaps we need to stop overanalyzing this mess, because apparently it is not going to change. Also he wants to be with Kate so that does not change my dislike of her famewhoring ways, but hey , he’s a big boy he knows what he wants. @Mandy: maybe you need to sotp telling people what to talk about, if you want to worship him thats fine, I have no beef with that, but i do have a beef with people telling other people what they can and cannot say, just please crawl back to Askarnews and Yuku, they worship Alex enough to pass the collection plate. The truth is and I’m sorry to say, his popularity is falling off, and yes unfortunately and I hate this, because he does have or had a lot of potential, his projects and personal life are taking a beating. Is it because of this debacle with Kate or who knows?. I just know he is not the Alex that I liked 2 years ago, like invasion of the body snatchers or something. Really weird.

I just like the overall package with Ryan, and sometimes, MANDY, we are who we are, some people reveal it right away some, wait later, is Ryan that way?, we shall see. However, because I like most of the TB cast, I wish them all the best of luck with roles and great projectsand great popularity. I hope they all garner the attention and good movie roles coming their way.

Hate Much? @ 11/12/2010 at 6:33 pm

Alexander Skarsgard and Ryan Kwanten are both fabulous and crazy talented. There’s plenty of room at the top for both of them. I don’t care who they date, or don’t date, but KB is a pretty hardworking actress.

You’re crazy though if you think AS is a famewhore, and maybe that’s why some people hate him.

WOW!!!! What a bunch of haters on this site! Good God! I too dislike Kate but will never hate her more than I love Alex. Maybe you guys need to go get a new crush. I’ll be more than happy to take him off your hands.

evathediva @ 11/12/2010 at 6:47 pm

@Hate Much?: don’t think he is a famewhore, but I do agree that there is room at the top for both, but when will Alex start getting the juicy roles , pop name brand campaign ads, coveted magazine shots? You have to see that Alex is NOT receiving the accolades that Ryan is, so maybe you can answer that, but maybe you can’t because you said KB is a hard working actress. When and Where? Emma Watson has surpassed her at the age of 20 along with Carey Mulligan, both of the Fanning teens and even the twilight young lady, umm Kristen Stewart, I consider them hardworking, but Kate, Naw…you need to recheck your definition of a hardworking actress dear, because Kate is not it. I think her ship has sailed, she is 27 3/4 almost 28, i don’t see her being a breakout star anytime soon.

Last season was good Alan Ball…but now you’ve takent it up a notch and every show on cable is clamoring to get your fans.

BTW …I agree with #21TrueBlade…you guys are so plugged into show and movement. Ryan is LOW KEY in an article he said he likes it that way. I”ll bet he doesn’t twitter …which makes him cool in my book.

Ryan LOW KEY my a$$! He has been all over the place. Wonder how long it will be before people accuse him of fame whoring. He sure seems to love the attention he gets more than Alex does. Ryan is on twitter by the way, he just never tweets anything interesting.

*
HYMN TILL ALEXANDER SKARSGÅRD

*
Tänk att Alexander Skarsgård – bara tjugosju
Har kämpat sig hela vägen hit redan nu
Han har svettats, han har slitit och stångats som en tjur
Och vägrat att förlita sig på slump eller på tur
Han har slagits i motvind, i lera och i mudd
Och tagit sig ända bort till Hollywood
*
Tänk att Alexander Skarsgård är killen med koll
Och nästan nästan nästan nästan fick en huvudroll
I filmen Zoolander, där han syns riktigt väl
I tre hela scener innan han sprängs ihjäl
Visst förstod man alla tidningars jätterubriker
För Alexander hade faktiskt flera repliker
*
Tänk att Alexander Skarsgård har varit over there
Och byggt upp en egen stjärnkarriär
För han gjorde inte bara den där filmen mot Ben Stiller
Han gick också på audition för en actionthriller
Och lämnade sitt visitkort till flera agenter
Och pratade telefon med tre producenter
Och gick ut på kvällen och hängde i rätt bar
Och kanske råkade nämna vem som är hans far
*

Tänk att han från Järngänget, Hundtricket och Happy end
Blev sin generations största filmlegend
Så simma lugnt nu, Alex, du som kämpat och som gnott:
Med ditt namn och ditt påbrå – det hade ingen trott
***
And could you please stop the “@someone” the real person should just stop answering, is getting annoying.

slanted view @ 11/12/2010 at 8:23 pm

god help us the crazies are back. Truly – must be better ways to spend your time. Poor Askars can’t catch a break – he marches off to get coffee by himself and we don’t even want to give him credit for that. no clinger attached even. Be glad for small gifts. We’ll be seeing Bosworthless attached to him again shortly.

eva (not the diva) @ 11/12/2010 at 8:24 pm

lol, I think you you guys have set your expectations a little too high about AS. TB shoots over 6-7months of a year so there is not much time left for anyone to do much else.

I don’t know why you keep setting him up against and idolising RK, although I do agree, he is a great actor. But ever since TB he has done a voice over for an owl cartoon (yay!) and landed the role of Charles Manson (it’s not even on IMDb yet)

Alex on the other hand, became famous in GK (in which I still think he was brilliant, that’s what made me watch TB), did 2 voice overs (Metropia and Moomins), had supporting roles in13 and Beyond the Pole, shot Straw Dogs (ok, this might go straight to dvd, so I am not sure) Battleship (Alex, really??! – I hope he does die in the first 30 mins, lol) and Melancholia with Lars von Trier (I think this will be his saving grace). He also did a European tour and other appearances, I think he worked really hard. And @evathediva #49: when will he get “coveted magazine shots”? eeerrrr… The Rolling Stone cover which was the most talked about cover of the year?!
Anyways, I am being too long. Btw, I am not on WoS or Yuku (whatever that is) I am just a bit puzzled why AS is getting so much flak lately.

Once ASkar dumps Bosworth..his supposed fans will love him again lol

What’s with the Alex vs. Ryan stuff? When did that start? I like them both. They are both doing better that Stephen Moyer and he married an Oscar winner. That has not helped him any. I don’t think it has anything to do with who you date or don’t date. Alex and Kate will break up. Everyone does.

Ode to Alexander Skarsgård

*
Remember that Alexander Skarsgård – only twenty-seven
Has struggled all the way here right now
He was sweating, he has worn and stångats as a bull
And refused to rely on chance or luck
He has been an uphill battle, in the mud and the cuff
And taken on the way to Hollywood
*
Remember that Alexander Skarsgard is the guy with an eye
And almost almost almost almost got a starring role
In the film Zoolander, in which he appears very well
For three whole scenes before he exploded to death
Sure you understood all the giant newspapers headlines
For Alexander actually had several replicas
*
Remember that Alexander Skarsgard has been over there
And has built a stellar career
For he not only made that movie with Ben Stiller
He also went on auditions for an action-thriller
And left his business card to several agents
And talking telephone with three producers
And went out at night and hung in the right bar
And maybe happened to mention who his father
*

Consider that from Iron Gang, Dog Trick and Happy End
Became her generation’s biggest film legend
So swim calmly now, Alex, you who fought and who gnott:
With your name and your heritage – it had no thought

Actually don’t want him to drop Bosworth!! I think they are perfect for one another. Very little talent, famewhoring, pathetic wannabes. Alex will last as long as TB does and then after that on to no mans land. Kate will be done with him at that point. Also, to back up the joel kinnaman thing…he is way hot in Snabba Cash but he plays up or down his looks for roles. But the man is a major hottie when he is all himself. Just watch Snabba Cash. I was the one that wrote how awesome joel was a few posts back and how when Alex was asked about awesome Swedish films out right NOW he says Let the Right One In which came out several years back. Snabba Cash came out this year to rave reviews and award nominations. Like I said before I think Alex is jealous of that success and of Joel’s talent and that is why he did not mention it. But hollywood has already taken notice of joel and he has signed with an agent here and has just finished filming a new movie in Russia, a pilot in Vancouver, and will start filming Snabba’s sequels soon. The director is also filming a new Denzel flick. Joel has the talent that Alex should have but will never get because he is too busy thinking he already has it and calling the paps in the spare time. Joel is the next Daniel Day Lewis or Gary Oldman. Just wait and see.

TrueBlade is MAD at me :'( @ 11/12/2010 at 8:43 pm

Pssst there really is no need to get so cross ,you make yourself look a little loco!

TrueBlade @ 11/12/2010 at 8:53 pm

@eva (not the diva):

Are any of these movies, besides Battleship, known outside the AS fandom? Legends of the Guardians was a widely released movie. People know who Charles Manson is.and sadly this movie will probably come out sooner than Straw Dogs. Lars Von Trier might be known to serious movie buffs, but is meaningless to the rest of the populace. Alex’s role is a small supporting one, the movie mostly revolves around K Dunst’s character and her sister. AS did not get good reviews in Puss.

I don’t understand how you people equate simple logic and proof as hatred. He’s not doing too good right now. GK was great and TB had some highlights. His IMDB is down while a Z Lister that hasn’t had a movie or roles for some time is up.

In all reality, if some of you stepped back and looked at the situation more logically you’d draw a different conclusions. JJ and other blogs are used to gauge the public’s opinions of actors/singers. Judging from the negative comments posted by logical adults the studios would not see this person as a viable commodity. All the cute couple , jealous fangirls, juvenile posts only make these professional perceive him to be a product that they cannot sell except to a small minority that will not generate the kinds of ticket sales they’re looking for.
Carry on people. You’re really doing more damage than we “jealous” fangurlz.

@searching for a new crush
What this means is that Alex has haters in Sweden as well. As do all popular actors in the USA as well. Everyone who is loved is also hated. It goes with the territory. Nasty people all over. Funny how someone who hates him so much “found” it. I love the guy, I’ve never come across it.

Ok….this is the real me, before anyone gets on and uses my tag or my other tag FreeSpirit71. I will say this. All this fanning of flames between the sites is doing none of us Askars fans any good, or his career, no matter if you like KB or not. I’m in the not category. I think the talk about HER overshadows HIS work. I don’t know if its PR strategy or a real relationship, but these constant pap shots which he obviously doesn’t like and his appearance here, rather than on other substantial websites says volumes.
I’m a fan, maybe less than before, but still hanging in there for ol’ smiley face Skars to make an appearance. I’m not middle-aged, a grandmother or fat, or crazy. To say that all Askars fans are that way is an insult, to assume these are the ONLY kind of fans he can attract. And to those that are…middle-aged, grannies or roundly rubenesque – I say ROCK ON, Askars needs all the fans he can get at the moment :-)

I am Thespi, I am crazy,I post using the names fromWOS and those on JJ who cross me. I also use multiple other names, because I am a crazy jealous, and obssessed fan gurl and I really have multiple personalities. I really want Maeve so bad, but she won;’t have me, so I attack all of those who post on WOS. I posted Askars tax returns, because of my addiction to all things Alexander. I am a fat cow, I was kicked and banned off all or most of the Alex Skars fan sites.

I along with Lilja, Hans Jenna, love to stir up **** onJJ, by posting things to get everyone mad at each other. We are mostly grandmothers, that forget about our grandkids because we really love Alexander, Eric, I mean Alex, I mean Eric, oh darn we have forgotten out mittens us naughty kitties.

Actually I just looked at these photos and for the life of me I can’t figure out why I thought he was all that just a few short weeks ago. he’s so blah. buttcrack chin an all. I honestly think he’s average looking, if that. coyote ugly.

@TrueBlade:
you seem to pick on me every time I post something, and that’s not very often…. “Legends of the Guardians was a widely released movie” – seriously? seen by whom? 8-year-olds? it’s a CGI children’s film… and Lars for Trier is “meaningless to the rest of the populace”?? I am going to pull out the Europe card again but he is a an acknowledged and critically acclaimed director here and the “rest of the populace” like him.

your comment about about how “you people equate simple logic and proof as hatred” is just irrelevant, have you even read my post? I never mentioned hatred. I think you are slightly dillusional, “JJ and other blogs are used to gauge the public’s opinions” – are you serious??? No one will ever read this sh*t, actors get roles by auditioning, not by studios reading cr*p on sites like this. If you were a “logical adult” you would see this.

I also feel the need to spell this out, I am not a ‘jealous fangurl” I don’t care who he dates, I am happily married, and I imagine AS to be boring as a person tbh, attractive but boring. I like him as an actor but that’s all. If I was a ‘fangurl’ I would be on a Hugh Jackman post, HIM I do like :)

@just me: I agree with you…..he doesn’t quite have that “WOW” factor anymore. Much too overexposed. But yes, he is still undoubtedly gorgeous. I’m still a fan….just not the absurdly drooling one I used to be.

I like the guy but I just don’t get these random pap “shots” at the coffee house. It feels really set up to me and tired. So, I get the people who are saying he is a famewhooo, anyways it is somewhat sad because I thought he was really passionate about his craft as an actor. Instead, he turning into a Hollywood gossip bucket filler type actor which is not a good thing as he ages. :(

@eva (not the diva):

Wow. Always nuttier than a box of cracker jacks.More people have heard of Legends of the Guardians than Metropia and Moomins. Lars Von Trier is not Spielberg, Cameron, Scorsese or Lucas.

You are reading this Sh*t , what does that say about you?

How do you think studios gauge trends and see who’s popular? The Psychic Friends Network? Crystal Ball? Tea Leaves?

@TrueBlade: Actually your post is illogical, the IMBd ratings have nothing to do with actual popularity, just how many articles they has been in at any period and how many people post on the forum. IMBd gets things wrong all the time, they are not a trusted source and nor is any gossip site. There are maybe 2-3 sites not bearing his name, that actually report on this trainwreck; JJ, X17,and Lainey.

There are plenty of actors and actress that are hated because of who they date and they still make movies; the same way that people like Katerine Hiegl and Jennifer A(or KB) continue to make films even though they cannot act or people do not like them. AS has gotten pretty steady work and I have never heard or read in an interview he wants to be a big star. The Guardians had one of the worst openings and box office revenues of any childlike film in a long time and how big a film, about Manson, do you think Ryans will be? Alex’s idea of success and how he wants his career to play out is different from Ryans, as well as different than what YOU want.

It is the same 20-30 people b*tching about him, saying how he sucks or he is not the same;but when he goes on promo tours, he has a high fan turn out. Yes, comments are taken into consideration but since he does not do reality; they are used more from HBO and sites dedicated to his work, not gossip sites. I do not think he is a famewh*re, JJ post walking pictures of Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto all the time; neither have the same amount of star power Alex does. This is not a news site, it is a gossip-invading-people-privacy and personal-space site. A lot of you seem not to know how paps work: the sit outside a celebrities house, eateries, neighborhood, etc. Paps follow X factor and American Idol contestants; why would they not follow someone on a hit or use-to-be show?

Kate was on the frontpage of Swedens most read newspaper yesterday. She looked so nice. I can see why Alex is so in love with her.

I’m big TB fan since Ep1 and I have to say that in Season 3 Alex’s acting was weak. He had opportunity to show off his talent and IMO he screwed up. In every scene he had with Denis O’Hare, latter blew him off the screen. Even Talbot was more convincing. The same thing happened in Swedish movie Exit where he played with Mads Mikkelsen. He was simply bland. I didn’t bother with the rest of his movies because their story lines were rather stupid. I’m not some jealous, crazy, fat, obsessed fan of Stephen Moyer who is spewing bile about Alex. I just use my common sense :)

Who is this JJ?
Alex in Love with Kate!
He always looks miserable around her.

So why IMDB exist? Why do they have a pro service? Since they get it wrong all the time, why haven’t they been shut down? Perhaps people in HW should be told about his crackpot site that claims to know about their clients. I guess they make up all information professional and personal. Someone really should sue them for libel.
Better yet, they should be shut down, tarred and feather, run out of town….

What exactly was the point of your post?…

@kimi: No, you are not a Stephen Moyer fan. *WINK*

The reviews for Alex were better than for Stephen Moyer. They always praised Alex and Dennis. So, Moyer sucks. You are mad. You attack Alex. Soooo pathetic.

@kimi:

My feeling is the same. He was completely convincing in Generation Kill, and on Season1 of TB, quite menacing as Eric. In Season2 still so believable. But something happened during Season3. The first episode he was still “Eric” but seemed, to me, to lose it after that. He was just phoning it in, and Dennis O’Hare’s performance only highlighted that. Not sure what happened.

KATE STOP TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF!!!ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

MY MISTAKE WENDY SORRY!!! I MEANT IT ABOUT YouBetYa.

Eh, I’m over him. I thought he was so gorgeous a couple of years ago but lately he hasn’t been aging so well and is it just me or does he look permanantly hungover? I think Kate Bosho is a bad influence – she’s so tacky and D-list.

@amtj2008 Are you serious? Actually, IMDB Pro is very respected. Get over yourself and stop trying to bs with the PR stuff for Alex and Kate b/c not working!! To answer your question regarding Katherine Heigl and Jennifer Aniston:
1)Katherine Heigl is hated but she can at least act
2)Jennifer Aniston is loved(remember Friends? The girl next door) but she is not a great actress but better than Bosworth and can at least do funny rom coms.
Also, Chris Pine just got named top of the A list by Entertainment magazine. Zachary Quinto IS a famewhore and loves getting papped but people got tired of him and stopped posting. Chris Pine is being trajected to be the next Pitt for Hollywood. Anyways Kwanten is getting major roles in American films which Alex wants but cannot get. He has auditioned LOTS but continues to get turned down. It was a MAJOR coup that Kwanten got Manson and he just got GAP ads which more people will see than Hickey Freeman which almost no one has seen and which Alex did not even promote. He never even wears Freeman to anything to promote the brand either so it was kinda dumb that he did that. Kwanten is more sellable to mainstream and whether Alex wants to admit it he would like to be mainstream as well. He is trying with the Bosworth, tabloid thing but it is not working. Because Bosworth is washed up in America and no one gives two sh*ts what she does. Her films almost never get distribution right away. If she was top shelf the film would have a distributor BEFORE it was even filmed. Anyways, your argument made no sense and the American public is not buying him, her, or them together(power couple hahaha).
Evan Rachel Wood’s career is really taking off and the woman will rank in A list for a very long time. Kate cannot act and she just annoys people more with her famewhoring ways just like Heidi and Spencer and Lauren Conrad. That try to take attention away from people who actually deserve it for the great work they are doing.
I like the Razzle Dazzle analogy above. Really suits them.
And I will say it again and again and again…the best export right now that Sweden has to give us in terms of actors is JOEL KINNAMAN and NOOMI RAPACE. They are going to make it big here. Noomi just got Sherlock Holmes 2 role and the Millenium films are effin awesome. Joel is beautiful when he wants to be and looks hot in Snabba Cash. More importantly, he can really act. I mean his range is freaking scary amazing.
People pay attention to those who deserve it.

He looks like a homeless guy!!
what do girls see in him? apart from his character on True Blood…balding middled aged man, bad fashion sense, ugly and trashy girlfriends??
;D

Annie but not nanny @ 11/13/2010 at 8:16 am

He was alone-alone? Weird, can he make caffee at home?
This seems so planned is not even funny.

Alex is always miserable, whether he is with Kate or not.
Only time I saw him really happy is when he was biting some dudes a.s.s on that secret tape thingy.
He must be a closet gay.

You can see Bosworth’s influence for sure. He never used to be a boozy famewhore. It is so unattractive when a man has no clear personality of his own and morphs into each girlfriend he has.

They got engaged weekend!!!!!!! I am friends with Ritter’s Aunt who helped out on the set of BFF and Baby…supposedly Alex was there twice..the lunch thing was the second time…he gave Kate B a ring last weekend and KateB ws pissed bcuz he put his foot down about getting the “ring” picture while on set..that is why she has the grumpy face in those pics..nothing will make this girl happy Alex is crazy to buy a ticket to this boatride

I can see how he loves Kate too. She’s lovely. I’m so amused by the people who think Kate and Alex are famewhores. Obviously, they’re clueless as to the pap mentality in LA. And to those who say Kate can’t act – she’s one of the few actresses who has a range from action (Blue Crush) to comedy (WADWTH in which she was adorable) to very dark roles like Wonderland and The Girl In The Park (brilliant performance). Alex is a captivating actor because of his minimalist style. It’s the little things he does that make his performances genius!

Love how anyone can just make up crap and put it on here. And to anyone who keeps trying to convince us that KB has range and talent as an actress…keep trying. That’s why she keeps getting these great parts – secondary roles in indie films with first timer directors and no budgets or distributors. I think he has a hell of lot of acting talent, but it’s getting overshadowed by this nonsense with Bosworthless.

Mediawhore @ 11/13/2010 at 12:50 pm

Well someone might want to start placing calls to their reps because unfortunately the engagement is real. Not sure when it happened but it did. From what I’ve heard the ring is nice, not Elizabeth Taylor diamonds or anything but beautiful and Kate loves it of course. Now it’s just a matter of whether or not they confirm or use their very favorite phrase “no comment”. Either way the first outlet that gets the official announcement will be a major coup, which pleases them both obviously. But sorry kids from what I’ve heard whether it’s for PR or not Alex has every intention of marrying her. It was all they could talk about at Gustaf’s birthday dinner. Another one bites the dust!

Keep dreaming Kate. It’s never gonna happen. You might as well start scoping out your next victem..I mean boyfriend.

eva (not the diva) @ 11/13/2010 at 4:58 pm

wow, it’s busy in here!

@TrueBlade:
There is no need to shout. Anyone who dares to disagree with you just gets abuse from you. I don’t think studios care about popularity. AS had to audition 4 or 5 times to get the GK part and he was not known outside of Sweden at the time. He got the part in TB just after he finished filming GK and still was not famous then. He only became famous due to the show. So I will continue to believe that the casting people in HW know what they do and give out roles based on auditions and suitability rather than popularity.

And yes, you are right, no one across the pond has probably ever heard of the Moomins, it’s pretty well known in Europe though, especially in Scandinavia and it will probably only be released there so I doubt AS took the role to become more popular. Legend of the Guardians on the other hand only reached #5 in the UK box office in its opening week and then disappeared 3 weeks later. I am just saying this for the sake of argument, not to belittle Ryan K, he is perfect as Jason, imo.

Again, you are right, “Lars Von Trier is not Spielberg, Cameron, Scorsese or Lucas” nor does he want to be, I imagine. Catering for the masses would compromise the very different approaches he uses in film making and the controversial subject matters he explores. I am not trying to argue I am just trying to get you to take your blinkers off and see the world from a different angle. Not everything is about money and popularity (maybe in the US it is), but there are real artists out there who like to express themselves and not worry about whether they are popular or not. How many tv actors went on to become major movie stars? Not many, maybe 10 in the past 40 years. And most of them start off with supporting roles or become character actors. Also, newsflash: there is a world out there full of AS fans who don’t read gossip sites, blogs and forums, just support Alexander for his acting, I was one of them, until I was off work ill for a week once, got bored and found these sites. But the fact that I read this sh*t doesn’t say anything about me (actually posting makes it worse, lol) apart from that I am slightly insomniac and that I was bored. Yes, I could have just gone and read a book (I wish I had now). But you probably made up your mind that I am a ‘crazy fangurl’ and can’t see anything else from your blinkers.

To those who think AS wasn’t good in Season 3, Dennis O’Hare of course stole every scene he was in, but that’s not to the detriment of Alexander, his acting is a lot more low key, and his character doesn’t require the same acting as Dennis’. I think he was pretty good in Season 3, slightly different from ‘book Eric’ but he made it his own.

First of all, put down the pipe. Studios who don’t care about popularity …DON”T…. EXIST. THEY…. ARE….IN…. BUSINESS… TO…MAKE….MONEY. THAT…IS…THEIR ….SOLE…REASON…FOR….EXISTENCE…

Sweetie , my first movies were Woody Allen and Disney…. my mother was a freak like that. I know a lot about art houses movies and directors. However, to belittle the endeavors of directors that appeal to the masses is trite and belittling to others.I I have no blinkers on…I see things as they truly are. I like a lot of people and things , however I fully understand and accept their flaws.

Why are you so invested in me and my comments? really, You actually believe I care enough about you to abuse you? You do know that there is a real world outside of the ‘net? Or are you stuck in the Matrix?

Personally I don’t think Gustaf thinks much of Bosworth but who knows – he certainly knows how to stay private.

I think it’s a given that Alex won’t get the same carrer as Ryan and Joe – for the reason alone that he’s not from an English speaking country. Maybe his boat has sailed – I don’t know. Only time will tell. It seems rather obvious that dating Bosoworth ain’t doing him much good. I wonder if it’ll last in the long run though – I can’t really see her move to Sweden as he seems to want to do.

Speaking of Sweden – I really like Joel and I think he’s a great actor especially in Snabba Cash – see the original! He has quite the reputation as a ladies man back home. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out for him in Hollywood.

@Tanter:

“I think it’s a given that Alex won’t get the same carrer as Ryan and Joe – for the reason alone that he’s not from an English speaking country”

I wouldn’t count him out just yet. The fact that he’s not a native American English speaker has nothing to do with his success. Anyone with enough will and dedication can be proficient in any accent or language they chose. I think he did a great job on GK with the help of his language coach. Success is an individual thing. If you mean big box office success by non native English speakers……Arnold with his butchered English anyone? Not everybody equates blockbuster success as their ideal. Daniel Day Lewis has had both. But most of all he’s a great actor that’s more known for his outstanding performances in “small” movies.

Btw, Joe has his own niche but I really don’t think he will attain the success of RyK.

AS can still turn it around. I hope he does.

@ Tanya , Nicole & Tanter , ladies with great taste…

Yes , Joel Kinnaman is handsome & talented.
I just can´t wait to see more of him. He was very good in every movies I´ve seen with him.

He doesn´t need a language coach either , his dad is from the US.

@TrueBlade: I’m just trying to think of other actors from Northen Europe who has made it big in Hollywood – since that seems to be what people think, you have to do, to be considered succesful. I can’t think of many. There’s Max Von Sydow, there’s Stellan.. that’s about it? I don’t know what Alex should achieve for people here to call him a succes? I guess his future depends a lot on Battleship but I think Melancholia will be big for him. Strawdogs seems dead to me – I wonder how it’ll affect their relationship.

Bottomline. no matter what the accent or origin, talent is what counts. I still think he’s talented and oddly good looking, shaven or not. I like that he wears his 10 pieces of clothes again…and again…and ….again…Okay…we might have to hold a telethon for that.

CORRUPT ACTION and a BITTER SOUL will continue to cause
physical pain and much suffering-
Heal your spirit now if you can.
Stop the vile behavior sister,
or your physical malady will continue to torture your body and the pain will increase.
THIS MEANS YOU, and we ALL know who YOU are.

@Seriously:
Evan Rachel Wood? she was too much of a woman for him.
ASkars strikes me as insecure.

@eva (not the diva): I just wanted to say that besides saying that TB spreads abuse, which I think is a huge reaction to the abuse she has had on here from previous posters.
The rest of your post was very well spoken and balanced and I agree with most of it. It’s not very often on here that the posts don’t just end up in a disagreement and battle of words.

Anyway, I wish that JJ would just leave the discussion of KB out of the Alex threads. As I think the majority of his fans don’t want to hear about her (let alone see her posts every week). IMO I think that Alex has more talent in his pinky then KB has had her entire career, and I wish his acting talent could be the focus not his supposed showmance/romance.

Right after the bashing of the Himbo or Mimbo a picture of his abs starts circulating.

C’mon! At least, I’m not that stupid.

Wow, World of Skarsgard has been busy. Maeve/Anarchy is really on a tear. She attacked SD, Askarsswedishmeatballs, The Nest, Skarsgardnews. Who will be next? I’m sure the internet is shaking in fear – LOL! Or is this a ploy to get her site some free advertising?

EXCUSE ME?! Hahahaha! Ryan and Joe have more future than Alex? Hahahaha! Maybe Ryan, but Joe “ABS” Manganiello?! Please, he only has extraordinary Abs, but his acting sucks. And you talk Alex is famewhoring? Joe Manganiello IS a real Famewhore!

And the photos of Anna and Stephen in the soccer game of Stephen’s daughter. Do they called the paps also?

Joe Manganiello is no stranger to self promotion, but it’s now obvious so is Alex and Kate leaves both of them in the dust. If Anna and Stephen get papped as often as Kate Bosworth, then yes, they are calling the paps. They don’t, though.

@jill:

Being pap at the soccer game of Moyer’s daughter? Not famewhoring? LOL!

"He is so talented" @ 11/15/2010 at 8:32 am

Swedish critic of Alexander performance in Puss:
.
A hunk of ordinary Alexander Skarsgård-type, not much to write home about in Hollywood. He does almost everything that can be done, but it is not very much.
.
En hunk av vanlig Alexander Skarsgård-typ, inte mycket att skriva hem till Hollywood om. Han gör ungefär allt som går att göra, men det är inte väldigt mycket.

Carla Nelson @ 11/15/2010 at 8:53 am

These KB and As are calling the paps because the only time people get thi smuch attention is when a magazine is going to do an exclusive interview on you. Such as the President. When he and his family is in a magzine you will see a a whole article on him not just a 3×5 picture. Theier are many big ballers who don’t want to be botherd that have more money than these two do that can pay for the paps to be there 247. But they chose not to. By the time TB comes back on AS will be overexposed because he is contantly photographed to much. Its just like they call and say KB and I will be at the Museum today. Tommorrow we will be at Joans on The Third. The day after will be at the Beach and ect. JJ already has there schedule of were these two will be during the middle of the week. Tell me something were is People Magazine at or The Time Magazine. You are big time when you make the front covers of these books. When yiu got it going on they will seek you. You will not have to hire JJ to let everyone know that you are out on a date with each other.

Carla Nelson @ 11/15/2010 at 8:55 am

I’m sorry as is not sexy he looks like shaggy that plays on scooby do. He is just like a ladder that goes up and down.

Carla Nelson @ 11/15/2010 at 9:37 am

To tell you the truth KS looks older than all these women and the sad thing is that some of them are about the same age she is. Now think if she is only 27 how will she look at 37?

Foreign point of view @ 11/15/2010 at 11:40 am

He is the blond vampire on that show on the cable, I think hbo.
She was Orlando Bloom’s girlfriend years ago.
.
That’s what you would hear from most young people outside the US. Blue Crush wasn’t a hit on my “zone”, but Superman of course it was, but “the new L.Lane” (no name) was terrible.
.
I saw pictures of Alex and I found him cute, and thought that he cared for the “craft”, then I learned who was KateB, and all the stuff. Too much stuff… like Alex is NOT respected as an actor in his own country.
.
Now, I know they are both s*** hungry for fame. Finally, stop with the “talented” argument, he’s average at the best, Alex is mostly about looks.
.
My opinion, and sorry for my crappy english

Foreign point of view @ 11/15/2010 at 11:52 am

OMG, when I say “most young people”, I meant the one who watch a lot of tv, have cable and sometimes visit gossip sites.
.
The BIG rest wouldn’t know who the hell are Alex and KB.

Carla Nelson @ 11/15/2010 at 12:15 pm

I just want to say that most of these sex symbols have come and gone. Look at Luke Perry, Jason Priestly, Brad Pitt, and the cast of that popular tv show 9021Beverly Hills. These men all used to be considered sex symbols in there younger day. At least these men started of in their twenties being sex symbols. AS is already 35 he does not have long to go. When the show is over he”ll be a thing of the past. Their is a difference between Rob Patterson and AS. There difference is more teenagers attracted to ROB than AS. If ROB keep hiself clean he will go places and you don’t hear of him drugging, drinking, and carousing with women in a way that he could draw attention to himself he will be find. A bad boy attitude will get you know where. All you will get is low budget movies. You don’t see pictures of him and Kristen papped every moment of the day, hour or second. They are for more famous that KB and AS. Why that sbecause they don’t call JJ and give them their out on the town schedule.

@Carla Nelson OMG! You are totally obsessed with the man. Four posts in the same morning. WOW. Extreme Skarscrush! Hahahahaha!

You are a crazy SM fan! LOL! So jealous!

I didn’t even know what KB looked like until she hooked up with AS lol. Thanks KB and AS for killing any attraction I had for AS. The thought of him going there with her is just ewwww!

Kate Bosworth and Alexander Skarsgard engaged??? Have absolutely no idea, and that would be their business should it be true (unlikely). I am guessing he is much wiser than that. He has to understand how important it is to fine tune the art of successfully boosting a budding career rather than potentially burying it. If he doesn’t, he needs to learn. There is a fine line between the two and right now he has plateaued. He is a fine actor, but let’s face it, he’s not yet a leading man, and at age 34 (at least by Hollywood standards), you have to have either made a huge name for yourself by starring in blockbuster films, and/or have an Oscar (or two) to remind you how hot you actually are, and last but not least, are drop dead gorgeous. Well Alex certainly falls into this category (at least as far as I’m concerned), but there are just too many male actors in Hollywood who meet most, if not all of these criteria. Many of them also being much younger. Either ASkars and/or his public relations crew appear to be playing what may turn out to be a very risky game. He needs to return to his laid back, low key style. This is how he used to present himself in interviews and oftentimes in public (depending on the company he kept and is possibly currently keeping….need I say more). This is what I believe is driving his fans to suddenly jump ship. ASkars needs to be true to himself. It’s humbling—and people appreciate and relate to this. They would respect him for this. And if this is who he truly is, why continue to play games. I for one still find him outwardly attractive and extremely sexy. But I think the way he treats Bosworth in public (whether she’s his significant other, bedbuddy, whatever), is absolutely disgusting and totally lacking in respect. I don’t feel one way or the other about Bosworth…..watched one of her movies when I was younger (win a date with Tad Hamilton…..not impressed). But this is not about her or whoever else may be in her shoes. Alex needs to clean up his act. Bad press is not always better than no press. Don’t be fooled by all these bizarre pics and posts of “Alex and Kate” out on the town. These pics are not normal and are anything but positive. I am surprised his father has not advised him. And if he has, even more surprised that Alex isn’t listening. Wise up dude because you are rapidly becoming yesterday’s news. What a shame.

Hey number 10 and 21 I agree with you all the way. Think about it when TB comes back on you won’t his character because we have been seeing AS to much already and people will not be excited about his role on TB. They will be looking at the other new folks. To tell you the truth he has already over done it with me. I’m looking to see what Sookie, Bill, Jason, and Alcide going to do. That’s why he didn’t make the Sexiest Man List. People are finally seeing that he is not all that and a bag of chips honey. I’ve seen sexy and it aint AS. Iv’e seen better. After season one he lost his looks and appeal.

clarissa vanhise @ 11/30/2010 at 5:43 pm

@Carla Nelson: Are you serious? I never read,or respond to any of this nonsense, but yours is especially troubling. I’ve read three of your post, over a two week span, and each post sounds more desperate and pathetic than the previous one. Okay, got it, you dont like AS and KB, he’s at best overaged and average, his role on TB has been downgraded to secondard….all this because who he chooses to date. Please explain, he’s an actor portraying a character, what he does and his personal life has no bearing on what he brings to the show. If he wasnt daing KB would he still be revelant in your eyes? He’s a attractive man, she’s a very, attractive women….whats the problem?

Carla Nelson @ 12/01/2010 at 9:16 am

There are many other actors who are over exposed besides these two. You can’t get mad at someone for their thoughts. You have some good actors that are not sexy and you have some bad ones who are still ot sexy. Does that mean that I’m a hater no. What is does mean is that you can’t stand the truth about these two people. Sometimes people can tell when things are rigged and phony. You can’t pull the wool over everbody’s eye. I didn’t care for KB even when she wasn’t with AS. I don’t hate nobody because it is wrong to hate. Now you can dislike a person acting that does not mean you hate them as a person. I’m entiltled to my thoughts just like everybody else is. You can’t get mad at the truth honey. Clarissa

@Carla Nelson:

Maybe you misunderstood my comments. I do not imply that your a “hater” but all of your comments are raught with some sort of bizzare disdain. You have every right to your opinion, however contrite they are, but please dont misunderstand a point of view that is contray to yours. I am merely asking you to make the distinction between a man and the character he plays, you dislike his character because of the choices he makes in his personal life. That’s my question to you, I’m really not interested in anything besides what he brings to the show and how it enriches the story. His growing, or diminishing, popularity seems to be based on very shallow reason, which have very little to do with his actual skill.
