Comic-Con: ‘True Blood’ Actress Slams Sarah Palin Over Non-Appearance On HBO Show (Video)
Deadline Hollywood ^ | July 26, 2014 | Dominic Patten

UPDATES WITH VIDEO: True Blood may be into its final season but the HBO show wasn’t treating its likely last Comic-Con appearance with anything but a ravenous appetite and a bit of bite. Specifically it was former GOP VP candidate Sarah Palin who got chomped. “She’ll weigh in on anything,” said cast member Kristin Bauer van Straten disdainfully of Palin revealing that she turned down the attempt HBO made to get the ex-Alaska governor on the show for its most recent broadcast. Besides a bloodbath at a fictional fundraiser for real-life Texas Senator Ted Cruz, the July 20 episode had several digs at the GOP including one character refer to herself as “a Republican c**t.”

Needless to say Palin wasn’t impressed.

“The brilliant minds of True Blood were brazen enough to ask me to do a cameo on their show, apparently so they could insult a conservative woman in person instead of just all conservative women in general,” Palin revealed to Breitbart earlier this week. “Their offer wasn’t presented in any negative way, perhaps to benefit from a surprise factor after the guest appearance. I turned them down anyway.” HBO confirmed that the offer in a statement that “casting directors for the show reached out to Ms. Palin’s representative but did not receive a response.”

“It’s sweet many many years later Warner Bros. At Comic-Con International 2014 that I’ve made her angry, I had fun doing it,” said the actress who plays vampire Pam Ravenscroft of first hearing Palin’s name and the way she reacted to the cabler’s offer. Van Straten’s remark got huge applause from the thousands in Ballroom 20 of the San Diego Convention Center.

Besides a brief mention of “Republicans” by van Straten on the panel in reference to the recent episode, there was nothing else said of real GOPers that have figured prominently in TB lately . This season has seen a reference to one character’s strained friendship with former First Lady Laura Bush and the Cruz fundraiser at the George W. Bush Presidential Library.

Of course there was more than politics on the menu at Comic-Con for TB today. The cast sent most of the time remembering the past seasons and the end of the show. In fact, before today’s panel even started, the series showed a specially made Goodbye Sucks video starring key cast members. “It meant the world to us that you made this show what it was,” said Deborah Ann Woll to big cheers. With similar remarks from Stephen Moyer, Sam Trammell and more, the short video ended with a blown kiss from Anna Paquin. Debuting on June 22, the last episode of the last season True Blood will air on August 24.

Now well into its seventh and last cycle, the SDCC vet brought not only Moyer, Paquin, Trammell, Woll and van Straten to the fans in the flesh, but also EP Brian Buckner along with cast members Nathan Parsons, Carrie Preston, Chris Bauer, Anna Camp, Nelsan Ellis and Rutina Wesley, who got huge applause as did her blood dripping satin jacket. The panel ended with a brief self-titled “True To The End” video previewing the final 5 episodes of True Blood. Check it out:

Libtard women might start off hot, but their attempts at staving off the effects of aging seem to often lead to them looking like their body was fighting the battle of Berlin and their face was Seelowe heights.

Conservative women, OTOH, start off good and age gracefully, often retaining hotness well into old age... :-)

I ripped out cable the day Bill Clinton was acquitted in his Senate impeachment trial.

Kristen, sweetie, I know it hurts that you’re not as pretty as Anna Paquin, let alone the gov, but you don’t have to take it out on her.

Hah! Her single useful attribute to Hollywood is the fact that her mouth resembles a Vagina.

How did she make Palin mad?

Or is that in her mind?

Libs have a tendency to be dismissive and then claim some type of victory.

No mention by N.O.W. either.

I guess it’s OK to call conservatives “cunts” in their eyes.

“Her next part will be on National Geographic.

She will be playing the role of the little fish sucking on the big sharks butt.”

Wet her lips and stick her to the wall. That should keep her out of trouble for a while.

I have heard of Sarah Palin. I have never heard of the actress in this show and I have never watched the show. Oh God I must be an evil Republican!

Good for Sarah Palin. Why the hell isn’t she running for President?

She might be the only one who can clean this country up.

Would. Not. Watch. It.
Wasn’t this the show where the actor quit because they wanted him to become a “gay” vampire?

Ok, it was a surgery to "lift the breasts" but not using anything artificial. Apparently the level of vanity in Lima was such that even if sufficient in size, one should remain the image of their 16YO self in their late 20's which I would have thought was perfect. A completely unnecessary surgery made in two cross cuts under each breast. The surgery left bright red visible scars that made you want to cry for taking a knife to such beauty. These were 2-3 three in cuts and over a year old. Tragic...It's still sad to think about.

Message to anyone considering a non-essential plastic surgery. DON'T DO IT!
