(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Anna Paquin thinks it's "nauseating" that she misses her husband so much in his absence.
The Canadian-born actress is best known for her role as Sookie Stackhouse in the HBO series True Blood, for which she has won a Golden Globe Award for best actress.
The 28-year-old is married to her co-star Stephen Moyer, but insists that working together and being involved romantically doesn't bother her.
"No. I miss him when he leaves," she said, when asked if working and living together is sometimes too much. "That's nauseating, I know. My me-time requirements are quite small."
The blonde beauty dedicates time to her fitness routine. Anna's character Sookie favours tiny white shorts in the television drama, and the fear of not looking her best in the unforgiving attire spurs her on to maintain her gorgeous physique.
"If you're going to be spending literally every single day of your working life wearing clothes that barely cover your body, you're gonna be extra-diligent," she confessed in an interview with Health magazine. "There's just a little extra motivation of, 'Hmmm, teeny white shorts and a bikini top? I think I will go to Pilates this morning.'"
Anna insists her "nuts" family keep her down to earth. Despite working in a non-conventional industry at such a young age Anna won an Oscar at the age of 11 for her appearance in The Piano - her feet were kept on the ground.
"I have a really, really, really normal family. And by normal I mean we're all nuts on some level. I think you've gotta be a little nuts to pursue any kind of creative job. I was also a really good kid," she explained.
The actress also revealed she is a fan of another television series. Anna is in awe of American screenwriter and producer Aaron Sorkin whose work includes serial drama The West Wing.
"I re-watch - and when I say the entire series, I literally mean the entire series of - The West Wing every year. I'm sort of secretly stalking Aaron Sorkin. I'm obsessed with his work. I think he's a genius," she revealed. (C) Cover Media
