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!
