Pam of 'True Blood' Says Yes to Lesbian Story

From Ace Showbiz

Queen of Louisiana Sophie-Ann may not be the only lesbian on "". After creator Alan Ball projected his thought of having other characters to have a same-sex relationship, actress has stepped forward to express her willingness to participate in that storyline.

Bauer plays Pam the sidekick of Eric and the screener of Fangtasia. Ball said he thinks Pam has a "lesbian vibe", explaining further, "I don't know that that's all she is, but she certainly does seem to appreciate the women."

"I wouldn't be surprised," Bauer told E! about Ball's plan to have Pam swinging the other way. "I think she's pansexual." One character that she pointed out to be her potential love interest was Ginger. "There are so many hot ones, but I'll pick Ginger. Ginger's hot. Ginger's fun. She's a screamer and she's a blood donor," the actress stated her reason.

The show is indeed no stranger to GLBT characters. Lafayette, who is the flamboyant cousin of Tara, will be getting a new love interest in the third season, Ball confirmed. Beside, the new character King of Mississippi aka Russell Edgington who is played by actor Denis O'Hare will also be gay. He has a long-term partner named Talbot.

The third season of "True Blood" arrives in June 2010.

She can do better than Ginger! Good grief.

SPOILER ALERT FROM BOOKS!!!! Don't read if you haven't read the books.

In one of the books, she dates Sookie's female friend who is staying with her for awhile.

But she was also Eric's lover right after he made her, but I seem to remember she really likes women. I think she's a definite bi.

And Nancy, I agree. She can definitely do better than Ginger who has obviously been around the block a few hundred times.

yea I know about the books and I love Pam in the books too, they pegged her just right. Maybe they will "jazz" Ginger up. But really she is pretty look at her imdb.com photos. Hope I can mention them on here.

Lady Jane, I agree the actress is pretty. I've seen her in other photos also. But on TB, she just looks overused and trashy and not very bright. Remember the scene from season 1 when Long Shadow gets killed? Pam needs a much cooler girlfriend, and if she's pretty, that's always a plus.
