Kiwi actress and

True Blood

vamp

Anna Paquin

has a very important message she'd like to share with us all: Despite fevered gum-flapping to the contrary, she's

not

pregnant; although her uterus thanks us for all the attention.

Let's rewind.

Celebrity gossip blogs were buzzing last week after Paquin was

snapped sporting a baggy dress

in Beverly Hills. Snitches were convinced the star had a ciabatta in the oven. But her rep finally put paid to the pesky rumours and issued the obligatory "not pregnant" denial. Case closed.

Although publicists are trained mouthpieces on a payroll, hired to bend an inconvenient truth at their clients' behest, we're inclined to believe that Paquin is indeed not in the pudding club.

But don't take our word for it; let's hear it straight from the horse's mouth, as it were.

Speaking to reporters at a

Nylon

magazine party in West Hollywood this week, Paquin revealed: "

My uterus is really flattered that everyone cares

," she quipped.

"

But sorry, no occupants

."

We couldn't have put it better ourselves.

Meanwhile, her fiancé, hunky

True Blood

co-star

Stephen Moyer

, has opened up about how he proposed to the Kiwi lass.

Speaking to

AccessHollywood.com

, Brit Moyer said the hit TV show inspired the loved-up pair's trip to the location where he popped the question.

"There was a song in the first season,

White Sandy Beach in Hawaii

, which was kind of funny and ironic... [It] all started out as a joke and then we decided to go to Hawaii with my kids this year," he explained.

Gushing Moyer, dad to

Lilac

, 5, and

Billy

, 8, from prior relationships, added that he asked Paquin to marry him "on a white sandy beach in Hawaii."

"Actually," he added, "it wasn't quite white."

And just when we thought this romance couldn't get any slushier, out pops the gem that Moyer lended a hand in designing Paquin's engagement ring.

"A friend of mine is the jeweller, Kathy Waterman," he said. "So I went to Kathy and we did some designs."

Form an orderly queue, ladies.

No hurry

The couple got

engaged earlier this month

, but Paquin says she has no plans to rush down the aisle just yet.

E! News

caught up with the star at the

Nylon

party and asked her about the bling on her ring finger, and when the big day was.

"We're OK with just the engagement right now," she dished. "There's no plans as of yet. We're in no hurry!"

Nude, not rude

The lovely Paquin graces the front cover of the current issue of

Nylon

magazine, between the covers of which she talks openly about her flesh-flashing in vamp series

True Blood

.

Fact: When it comes down to disrobing and baring all on TV, Paquin says she has absolutely no problem with it.

"I don't think a naked body is particularly shocking or interesting," she said.

"It's not the culture I was raised in," she added. "I was not brought up in the United States. I don't share the [attitude] that you can have graphic violence, but - God forbid - you see someone's nipples."

The actress, 27, says she's not bothered about baring her breasts.

"It's like, I'm sorry, maybe there are a lot of women who keep their bras on while they have sex...I don't happen to be one of them," she concluded.

Probably helps that the man she's sharing her nudity with is his her fiancé.

It hurts so good

We're huge

True Blood

fans over here (not that it shows) and can't wait for the second season to start on September 2. Yep, we're so ready for seconds.

And to whet our unquenchable appetite the good folk at Prime are re-broadcasting the nail-biting conclusion to season one this evening (Wednesday) at 8:30pm.

And there's more...we've got our mitts on a couple of videos starring

True Blood

's creator

Alan Ball

, where he waxes lyrical about the show, and most importantly, dishes out some teasing hints about what's to come in season 2.

Suck in your guts, guys, and feast your eyes on this lot:

Season 2 starts on Prime

, Sept 2, 9:30pm.

Wino's back

They say you can't keep a good one down for long...

And here she is.

Amy Winehouse

graced the stage at the V Festival in Essex on Saturday, a year on from when she gave a shambolic performance at the very same festival.

There's hope for her yet.

What the Rourke?

You might want to put down your lunch before taking a butchers at

Mickey Rourke

lapping up the sun while on his hols in Croatia.

Time has not been kind to old Rourkey: From

this

... to

this

Not a good look.

Samantha who?

Someone might want to jump-start

Jude Law

's memory.

The Brit actor and baby daddy to wannabe actress

Samantha Burke'

s love child, currently starring in

Hamlet

on London's West End, apparently had no recollection of who she was before the scandal broke.

A snitch said: “Jude didn't even remember (Samantha). She hasn't seen him since New York. They've only been in contact through their lawyers."

Hamlet

is about to transfer to Broadway, New york, from next month - which also happens to be where Burke resides.

Given his amnesia, we doubt a reconcilliation is on the cards.

Lip syncher

Reality TV star

Heidi Montag

, for no other reason than to pimp her burgeoning ego, performed at the Miss Universe 2009 competition.

Needless to say she lip-synched her way through the performance. Although she disagrees: "I was as live as live can be," Montag said.

Her hubby

Spencer Pratt

agreed: "It was the livest performance in history."

What do you think?

Quote of the day

“I have cellulite. I admit it. But sometimes I just say, ‘Screw it, I am going to wear a bikini. I think I look good for my age. I am not 25; I am 43. That feels like a big pressure, especially when the

National Enquirer

is dying to get a picture,”

- Cindy Crawford embraces her orange peel.

And on a more serious note

We don't often get personal in this blog, but on this occasion we heartfully make an exception.

A friend of ours is going through a bit of a rough patch health-wise. So this one's for you, mate:
