Anna Paquin talks about filming raunchy scenes while pregnant

Anna Paquin, 32, who has 22-month-old twins Charlie and Poppy with husband Stephen Moyer - admitted she relied heavily on ''creative costuming'' when shooting True Blood while pregnant. The actress, who plays Sookie Stackhouse opposite her spouse as Bill Compton in the vampire drama, said: ''We tried to time it quite carefully and up until the last couple of episodes there was a lot of creative costuming. And then they just CGI-ed out the bump.'' However, Anna admits she worried it would be ''creepy'' shooting a raunchy sex scene during her pregnancy, but felt it was done tastefully. She added: ''There was only one scene that we had to shoot while I was pregnant. Bill is having this fantasy while he's having sex with Salame, who turns into Lileth, and then it turns into me. So I was like, 'Oh wow, it's basically a... gang bang with my husband while I'm pregnant!' But we shot from shoulders up so it wasn't like, 'OK, that's actually really creepy!' "
