Celebs Celebrate ‘GQ’s Men Of The Year For 2009
Last week we got our first look at the various coverphotos for GQ magazine’s special multicover edition of their Man of the Year issue and last night, at the Chateau Marmont, GQ hosted a party to celebrate those men. Here are a few pics from the red carpet arrivals … which, strangely enough, included male pin-up model Levi Johnston and True Blood hottie Alexander Skarsgård who dished a bit about the upcoming third season of TB:
Skarsgard, 33, who plays brooding vampire Eric Northman on the HBO hit series True Blood, will begin shooting season three along with the rest of the cast later this month. The actor told RadarOnline.com that fans can expect a lot more from Eric this time around. “There’s a lot of nudity,” he said. “As far as Eric goes, there’s going to be a lot violence and a lot of sex — with women and men! So it should be interesting.” At 6-foot-four, Alexander’s model good looks are just as striking in person as they are on the small screen. Last season, he had to get up close and personal with True Blood co-star Anna Paquin — who in real life is engaged to co-star Stephen Moyer. But Skarsgard says there’s no tension on set. “No. I mean, I can’t wait to get back to my L.A. family,” he said referring to the True Blood cast. “I love Stephen, we’re friends and I love Anna. They’re great together. I actually think it makes things easier that way.” So there were absolutely no sparks flying between Skarsgard and Paquin during last season’s steamy love scenes? “Not at all,” he said. “Anna and I are completely platonic, and Stephen knows that.”
“A lot of nudity” — yeah, that is *just* what I was hopin’ to hear ;) I love Skarsgård and I’m always glad to see him out and about at these types of events … he seems like such a nice, approachable guy. As far as the other guests, well, it looks like GQ took grain pains to ensure that their event was a classy affair (Levi Johnston’s attendance notwithstanding). I’m all for celebrating Men of any Year no matter the occasion … especially hotties like these :)

After watching True Blood, I have to agree, Alex is one sexy man! love him!

I’ve seen True Blood and Alexander isn’t that hot like some make it out to be. I think it’s just his character Eric that backs it up and some people confuse that. Oh well.

how did Levi get an invite to this???

I think a person’s “sexiness” has a lot to do with not only their appearance, but their personal energy. So, I don’t know if it is Eric that makes people like Alex….or Alex that makes people like Eric. If he was just hot without personality, I don’t think people would be this fanatical about him. He is very magnetic on camera, and seems to be a sweetie in person.

So…Levi’s relevance in the celeb world is increasing now? I’m confused.

Sweet Lady: I agree how the heck did Levi get invited to this? I’m surprised people invite Lindsey to things since one never knows if she’s going to flip out or not, but come Levi is just a freaking sperm donor.
