    I love how he addresses everyone by name. He's just so personable with the fans. I love it!

    I love how his eyes widen when hes deep in thought or trying to be really expressive about something.
    He seems like quite the dork, but the kind you have to love.

    I love that he's so sweet, down--to-earth, and sincere, without the Hollywood phoniness actors like to pull during interviews. I wish him great success in his acting career, I really do. Thank you, Mr. Skarsgard.

    "I'm Scandinavian, goddamnit. We love to be naked."
    Oh my god. His face when he says that. So sexy... Oh my god... I died.

    An honest down-to-earth real person. Self confidence without arrogance. I like him even more after watching this.

  • @Skarsgirl
    @Skarsgirl 15 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    It's all in his swagger, his attitude, the way he carries himself. He seems to be really comfortable in his skin.

    I like how he always says the interviewers' names. What a handsome gentleman.

  • @Irie2286
    @Irie2286 15 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    happily sighs deeply and heavily...he strikes me as a very intelligent person, not just because i love him, but the way he takes each question seriously and really thinks about each one...confident and yet humble...sighs again :-D

    Come on, he looks like that and he's low key, intelligent and funny? Lordy, just give him to me!

  • @IrethN
    @IrethN 15 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    He sounds so sweet and sincere. Everytime he answers a question, he makes sure he mentions that persons name, even after every question by the same person! So sweet! :D
    And I love it when he said "I'm Scandinavian goddamnit" :D

  • @darkchildo3
    @darkchildo3 15 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    "Nudity is great." and it said it so nonchalantly too!
    that made me giggle like a school girl!!
    God I love him he's soo absolutely gorgeous!!

  • @ijustkilledmybf
    @ijustkilledmybf 13 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    He's the most perfect man I've ever seen: not just the stunning exterior, but his personality too, he's always so kind to his fans and even to the paparazzi, he has great manners, plus he's so funny and intelligent at the same time. The most important, he's really talented and a wonderful actor. I didn't know I could have so beautiful feelings to someone before, I'm a pretty cold person, but he could melt even a stone :] LOVE YOU ALEX!!!

  • @JacquiAvietMelvilleAuthor
    @JacquiAvietMelvilleAuthor 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I agree totally with Alex. When he says he doesn't have a problem with being naked, I don't have a problem with him being naked either.

  • @iwantorlando05
    @iwantorlando05 15 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I love how he just glows. I literally can't look at him without giggling like a school girl. lol.
    He's so unbelieveably HOT!!!

  • @Skarsgirl
    @Skarsgirl 15 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I think I understand now why he's said in many interviews that he doesn't think that he's good looking. He says that because in Sweden he's just average but here in the US he's really really really really really ridiculously good looking plus he's got a great personality and talent.

  • @CharlzNine
    @CharlzNine 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Did anyone notice that Alexander is AWESOME in this interview. Seriously, he seems REALLY cool.

  • @TheMarissaA
    @TheMarissaA 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Is it just me, or is he getting sexier as he gets older? Why is he not taken yet? Have you seen him in "Never be Mine" by the Swedish actress, Maria...? I will forever thank Alan Ball for choosing Alex to play Iceman on GenKill, and Eric on True Blood. Thank you, Alan!!!!!!!

  • @necromanti
    @necromanti 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I had no clue that he actually put on more of a Swedish accent when playing Eric.
    Even then, I was happy to find a Swedish actor with a less pronounced Sveedish accent.

  • @6eloved
    @6eloved 14 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    He seems so down to earth, genuine and sweet!

  • @chellywuzhere636
    @chellywuzhere636 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    the cast from true blood is so diverse, steve moyer is british, ryan kwanten(jason stackhouse) is australian, and anna paquin is from the US

  • @mscubana
    @mscubana 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    In the books Eric speaks 25 languages, or more. He learned english in the 70s at a community college. He is very diversified. :)
    Alexander is cool people and so down to earth.
    What Alan Ball needs to get right next season is to put him in the foreground.

  • @TheLbg921
    @TheLbg921 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I truly don't want to sound disrespectful, but I think most Americans are ignorant about the Swedish language and probably have never heard it spoken, only cheesy accents, mostly comedic. I know about Alex's father and you're probably correct about his time in US. He is obviously truly bilingual, which perhaps most Swedes are, so English is very natural. I do love him and enjoy hearing his voice in any language.

  • @Skarsgirl
    @Skarsgirl 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Generation Kill is a 7 part mini series about the first days of war in Irak. It's about a journalist who follows a group of soldiers and writes a book about his experience with them. I think it aired last year. You can find it on Netflix or probably online somewhere.

    @MissRowanTree 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    "We love to be naked!" Got to be my favourite comment!
    Just noticed the cheeky eyebrow lifts, the eye flashes and the lopsided smiles! The naughty looks are just killing me. Alex definitly has a cheeky side.
    I'm loving Eric. I'm reading the books along with watching the series and I think Alex is doing a really great job with him. He's got him pretty close to what I imagined. He plays Erics light and dark sides very well.

  • @LunaWolf0
    @LunaWolf0 15 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That was so adorable
    He seems like a very strait forward guy
    After watching a few interviews of him I think I'll get used to Eric's short hair..
    That was great thx for uploading...

  • @YikesYahooYum
    @YikesYahooYum 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I agree it is so sweet the way he acknowledges the person who is asking the question. When he does that sexy eyebrow thing or smiles, I'm just gone! He even makes eye-rolling look sexy. He's so down-to-earth, intelligent, and so respectful and appreciative of his fans, is it any wonder he has so many? So, he loves being naked? We need to find a way to make this happen as much as possible, as soon as possible. Although, the last episode of True Blood was a great start! Love this perfect man!

    He's been here a while but I read in a magazine that he had an accent coach to help him with his Mississippi accent for his upcoming movie Straw Dogs due out in 2011.

  • @AnimeBlaque
    @AnimeBlaque 15 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    i love both the character eric northman and alex. having read the books i can't wait to see him act it out. it's funny, i haven't watched a recent music video in over two years but after hearing he was in paparazzi with lady gaga (whom i'm not even interested in) couldn't help myself. its rewarding to find an actor both dedicated AND good looking. And it's great to see that he is a straight forward and genuinely cool guy. It's rewarding when fame hasn't gotten to people's heads.

  • @MADQueen89
    @MADQueen89 15 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    First time I saw him in 'Generation Kill' I thought to myself..."yummy". Now that I see him in TrueBlood, he's def in my top 1 (yes, I said 1)of sexiest men of my dreams. And the best part is he's not just great, unbelievably, amazing looking, he's also intelligent and down to earth (from what I've heard). ::SIGH:: We need more men like him in the US!!!

    @trollfar1 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am no big fan of vampire shows and movies in general,but this one is actually quite good.And as a scandinavian (norwegian) i think it is great that Alexander Skarsgård is one of the two actors that actually made a scandinavian character interesting in a Hollywood production,and not fall into the "weirdo with funny accent chategory".(The other one is Dennis Storhøy,playing "Hergeir" in the thirteenth warrior)

  • @Talkitivedevil81
    @Talkitivedevil81 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wow. He is the total opposite of Erick. Erick was always gorgeous to me but I never really saw him like that because I was crushing on Bill. Then when I saw the second season I started to see a different side of him and saw that he wasn't always the bad boy I thought he was. And he really does care. Erick's confidence is what makes him so hot.

    He is the hottest vampire on True Blood! He is also the hottest Swedish actor I've ever come upon. I love that he is Swedish seeing as I have more Swedish in me than any other nationality. Watching this video, it seems that he is also very down to earth, which is a wonderful quality. I hope True Blood is around for a long time because he is such a wonderful actor and it doesn't hurt that he is so attractive!

    He does in actuality, he busted it out on Jimmy Fallon :) But he learned the American accent over the years, and his english has improved, and now he can talk like the rest of us here in the states.
