Anne Rice has fangirl moment with ‘True Blood’ hunk Joe Manganiello

It’s so fun to see celebrities have fangirl/boy moments with the people they most admire! Thanks to her son Christopher, famed author Anne Rice enjoyed a special visit from True Blood hunk Joe Manganiello during the signing of her new book The Wolf Gift held at Barnes & Noble bookstore at The Grove on February 17, 2012 in Los Angeles, California.

What a perfect situation for Anne, who wrote Interview with a Vampire, to have a small screen werewolf make such an appearance!

Saturday morning, I was reading my Facebook updates when I saw the following fangirl message from Anne Rice herself!

My signing at B&N at the Grove in Los Angeles began with an enormous surprise. My son Christopher had promised this, and a surprise it was: in walked Joe Manganiello (magnificent werewolf Alcide of True Blood) with a bouquet of flowers! I almost died of fan fainting on the spot. He was as beautiful in person as he is on the screen, and irresistibly charming. He escorted me to the table to begin the signing. I am still in a mild state of delicious shock.

We love him too so we totally get what you were feeling Anne!

You can purchase The Wolf Gift right now at the link.

Plus if Anne has her way, Joe’s college buddy Matt Bomer will play the role of the wolf in a feature film!

Bromance Alert: Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello battle it out on the field

No one loves a good bromance more than I do, so you can imagine my excitement over another set of photos featuring my favorite bromantic duo, Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello! Not only did Joe just guest star on buddy Bomer’s hit USA show White Collar last week, but they recently wrapped up their new film, Magic Mike (yes the highly anticipated stripper film!) which is getting ready to hit theaters this summer.

These latest images show Manganiello and Bomer at DIRECTV’s Sixth Annual Celebrity Beach Bowl Game held at Victory Field on Saturday, February 4th, 2012 in Indianapolis, Indiana. You can bet these old college chums plan to catch the game together later today!

I, for one, hope that the next move for Bomer is a guest starring role on Joe’s hit HBO show True Blood! How awesome would it be to see that blue eyed babe with a set a fangs?

Swoon!

Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello pose pretty for ‘Haywire’ premiere

It’s not even June 29th, the date the long-awaited Magic Mike movie is unleashed onto the world, but Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello are already giving us a tiny preview! The pretty pair stepped out for the premiere of Relativity Media’s Haywire held at DGA Theater on Thursday, January 5th, 2012 in Los Angeles, California.

Neither actor star in the film but their co-star in the stripper film Channing Tatum stars in this action/thriller and Steven Soderbergh serves as director of both films! Gotta love what a supportive bunch they are!

According to Manganiello, all the boys bonded during the shooting of Magic Mike and this red carpet appearance proves how friendly they all are.

“Usually when you’re done with projects, you promise to stay in touch with everyone, and you don’t. On this one, we all have, and we all hang out, and we all talk to each other during the week. So we’ve bonded.”

He also credits former stripper Tatum, on who the film is loosely based on, as being the best dancer of the lot.

“Oh, Channing, by far. He’s like on another level. Obviously, he’s got more experience,” Joe told MovieFone.com at the event.

Haywire hits theaters on January 20th. Also don’t forget to tune in to the season premiere of White Collar starring the blue-eyed Bomer on January 17th, 2012, only on USA Network.

Channing Tatum and Joe Manganiello strip for ‘Magic Mike’ (First Official Photo)

Christmas and Hanukkah might have left a pile of dirty dishes in the sink and stacks of ripped open wrapping paper all over the floor, but we think you deserve one more gift before officially saying good-bye to the holidays!

The first official photo from the HIGHLY anticipated Kevin Soderbergh film, Magic Mike has been released and it featured some of the hottest men in Hollywood! Joe Manganiello, Alex Pettyfer, newly engaged Matthew McConaughey, and Channing Tatum are shown on stage ready for a strip-off.

I hope the movie theaters plan to provide napkins and buckets to collect all the drool that will be produced by movie-goers once Magic Mike is released.

I am a bit disappointed that AccidentalSexiness.com favorite Matt Bomer is noticeably missing from the promotional still, but we hope they will make up for it in an upcoming image. (In other words, make sure he is wearing a tiny spandex bikini bottom please!)

I will be plenty excited to welcome 2012 and the count down until opening night on June 29th!

Joe Manganiello rocks out to Guns N Roses!

Looking utterly delicious in a leather jacket and black jeans, Joe Manganiello was photographed leaving from the Guns N Roses concert held at the Forum in Los Angeles, California on Wednesday, December 21st, 2011. Armed with a bottle of water in his hands, the True Blood hunk smiled for photographers as he showed off his unique style in a pair of yellow and black sneakers.

It seems like most of Hollywood came out for the show. Other stars spotted at the event were Jared Leto, Jim Carrey, Nick Carter and newly married AJ Mclean. (Speaking of the Backstreet Boys, did you hear they will work on a new album in 2012? Check out the story here!)

Even though Axl Rose is the only original member of the band performing under the GNR name, he is (finally) open to reuniting with SLash and Duffy.

“The only thing that would make it would be Duff and Slash, really, Axl said to the LA Times in an interview. It’s nothing against Izzy and it’s nothing against Steven, or anything like that.

“Steven may want it, but these guys I’m working with right now, they work really hard and it’s hard work. I’ve toured with the other guys and I’ve also seen what they’ve done since, and I just know the difficulties. So it’s not really even a full reunion.”

If that reunion were to ever happen, I would go to nearly ANY PLACE they would perform!

True Blood hunks Joe Manganiello and Ryan Kwanten party on the West Coast

Well look at these hot boys enjoying their single-dom! Joe Manganiello and Ryan Kwanten stepped out on the West Coast for a night out on the town. Joe, who is currently on a break from shooting Steven Soderberg’s Magic Mike, was spotted playing host at Moon Nightclub at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada on Thursday, October 27th, 2011.

But thats not all! The tall-drink-of-water also served as a judge of the “Sexiest Costume Contest” held at Surrender Nightclub at Encore Las Vegas.

Ryan donned a tuxedo with a cream colored jacket to amfAR’s Inspiration Gala held at Chateau Marmont last night in Los Angeles, California. The event was hosted by Bravo’s Andy Cohen and featured a special tribute to AIDS activist Elizabeth Taylor.

Though they dressed in completely different looks, which of these True Blood hunk looked the best?

‘True Blood’ stars Joe Manganiello and Kristin Bauer catch the world premiere of Iris

Is anyone else suffering now that season four of HBO’s supernatural drama True Blood has concluded? It is my commitment to you all to continue promoting all the shows’ fabulous stars so as to make up just a little bit for their absence!

Joe Manganiello and Kristin Bauer were spotted on the red carpet at the IRIS, A Journey Through the World of Cinema by Cirque du Soleil premiere Sunday, September 25th, 2011 exclusively at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California.  As much as I want to go on about how hunky Mr. Manganiello is looking in these shots, I have to address Kristin’s stunning leopard print dress first!

The length and fit are perfect for her slender body so were her accessories;  a pair of simple black pumps and a matching clutch.

Now back to Joe!  The upcoming star of the Steven Soderberg film Magic Mike looked adorable in a pair of fitted black jeans and a sweater that featured some stars and stripes.  But could he really go wrong with anything he puts on?

I can’t wait for production to come down to Tampa!
