Mildred Pierce scene stealer Evan Rachel Wood told Esquire she dates women as well as men, likely a revelation to her fans as this is the first Marilyn Manson’s former girlfriend is admitting outwardly to bisexuality.
The 23-year-old actress, who plays a hundreds-year-old lesbian vampire queen on HBO’s juggernaut show True Blood, begins the interview saying she "was always into very androgynous things. Guys, girls ... I'm into androgyny in general."
Wood goes on to tease about her fluid sexuality saying she would marry her Mildred Pierce costar Kate Winslet if she could.
Esquire’s interviewer leapt on that nugget information and asked if Wood did indeed date women, and without hesitation she says, “yes.”
Beyond a simple affirmative reply, Wood goes on to discuss her dating style with women saying, "Yeah, I'm more kind of like the guy when it comes to girls. I'm the dominant one." It's with women, she says, that her inner North Carolina gentleman comes out: "I'm opening the doors, I'm buying dinner. Yeah, I'm romantic."
And all we can say is HOT!
