True Blood: Carrie Preston PSA (HBO)

[krystalnat]

I liked her character Sydney in the movie "Transamerica". Especially when she says: "Is he your boyfriend? Oh my god!"

[TheCallysan]

Very important message, thank you Carrie.

[italiana4ife86]

i love Carrie Preston! she is my fav on True Blood lol

[yellowpinkblue001]

She has Sarah Jessica Parker's maiden name from Sex and the City! Lol. I just realized that!

[hayleyqful]

I was so wrong about her, she is the most understandable person in the show

[MarciMichaelJay]

I love Carrie! She's so beautiful. :-)

[91crystalrose]

awww i love you carrie.. you character is great and your a great actress!

[scienceatheism]

the day will come. Read a lot of Fredrich Nietszche shit his stuff always made me feel better. With the idea of ubermensch. Its beautiful.

[scienceatheism]

How about accepting those who are dicks and have sick sense of humor? Why cant I be accepted for being an absolute asshole with my jokes about taboo shit. Like homosexuality, racism, death etc etc etc. I feel alone because no one likes that and it hurts :(

[prettyoddftw]

Keep waiting for that accent of hers in the series xD

[NeonSunset23]

she's so pretty

Someone once told me the only constant thing in life is change. Indeed, however much change occurs in this life, I fear that no matter what there will be this interminable hatred towards gay people, at least where I'm from (the Midwest). I sure hope things do improve because I don't how much more I can take before I simply say it's not even worth living if this hatred experienced every day doesn't end. The other day some1 said, "Its Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!"

[hazelflame]

Did she say life is temporary? Wrong message.

[mat2man]

"There you go again" digging on "conservatives." We who fight bigotry fight it in all its forms. I am conservative. I am bi sexual. judging ppl with broad brushes is what we are fighting, right? Then why do it ourselves? Thanks for the underlying message tho.

[pmw29206]

@mat2man I'm sure she meant socially conservative, as in closed-minded, rather than politically conservative. People who are socially conservative and expect others to share in their old-fashioned ideals are a big problem for young LGBT people.

GOD HATES FANGS!

[MihaelaMusica]

Beautiful Message !!

[greenfuseful]

Beautiful message.

[LaMarquiseDeMerteuil]

A very good message. Very relevant to our times. I am only sad that the ad at the end seems to support in schools but nowhere else (unless I misunderstood). The loneliness of the 'different' lasts a lifetime, ways beyond school years. Messages like this will move a lot of people in their 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond too.

[WaltzingMtilda]

I do love all these ads...this is such a great project. But of course me being me it irks me that she says "if you feel you are surrounded by conservative people". My kids are surrounded by conservative people and if either one of them is gay, they will have all the love and support they need to freely be themselves.

I do understand the mis-perception that conservatives are anti-gay...just wish I knew what to do to change it. We're not all like that. We are getting better...I see it everyday.

[goldiebee19]

@WaltzingMtilda THANK you! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who was a bit offended by this. Though I do not identify as conservative, most of my family members are, and they are anything but small-minded. Being conservative doesn't always equate to being bigoted and judgmental, and I wish that people would start realizing that.

[yaoiking16]

Aw thx Carrie, ur an amazing actress and person, ur amazing!

[discochick100]

Ur so pretty prettest girl on da show haven't missed one episode

[jimmyboyo100]

cool

[cche16]

arlene and jessica rock the ginger look. work it ladies!!

[trippy712007]

Simply amazing

[zahraljmusic]

I'm so sorry, for some reason, I keep thinking it's Arlene talking, so I can't take it seriously. But, good job Carrie Preston :p

[Cookie97Monster]

I wanna dye my hair red, but I know it won't look nowhere near as good as hers.

[MellyNicky]

Carrie is so sweet!

[StaceyDreams0]

She's adorable!

[corncat]

"...but if you're depressed or bullied and NOT gay... screw you."

[Uuvavo]

She's a beauty.

[PornStar2823]

like if u think she looks hot in season 4 compare to the other 3 seasons.

[Juanscv92]

@PornStar2823 That's because she actually changed her hair color to red instead of using an awful wig.

[PornStar2823]

@Juanscv92 oh really? she used a wig?? i didnt know that.

[TheThunderDragoon]

She's so awesome.

[danscottbrown]

I love her hair.

[mar91132]

shes so gorgeous for her age

[Scottrobotot]

@mar91132 She's so gorgeous for any age :)

[alifuturescream]

unless your baby burns down your house

[schus14r]

thats one hell of a pot plant.

[psypants]

Well said!

[darkdealer]

Such a beautiful video! Everyone needs to see this and hopefully feel the same as I, while watching this. Kinda made me a little misty eyed!

[LovelyHavoc92]

Amen sister! I was constantly bullied all throughout middle school..to the point where my life was threatened and the people pursued me as to come to my house to continue to bully me. But I've grown past it all and proud to be who I am today! (side note, I love your hair Carrie! <3)

[oogityboogity]

This is the best PSA of them. Very calming and sincere.

[JaclynGlenn]

Great video, I have so many gay friends (like the one in the video response I posted). He almost committed suicide because of the hate he experienced during our 4 years at a catholic high school. We need more people like you in this world :D

[Greenkai3000]

Thank you Carrie Preston, and True Blood for this wonderful message. Haters may troll this video, but decent folk will surely flag them, and /or report them for abusive behavior.

[JustinReview]

What if I'm not surrounded by conservative people but surrounded by liberal tards?

[sealhunta]

@JustinReview well then it wont get better, it will get worse, because social conservatives will die out.

[rctriplefresh5]

she said they support the gays with whatever they choose to be..but gays claim they dont choose

[Haleydg5275]

She's like the total opposite of her character, who is not even remotely accepting. xD

[RheaTrysToBeCool]

What a cool cat :) gotta love Carrie

[househeadericmd]

honestly hers and kristen bauers ofcourse are 2 of the best actually.

[kanasaurs]

I wonder what Ben Linus would make of all this.

[SnoopysOtherBird]

What if you get bullied for being a serialkiller?

[BrokenGoods]

@SnoopysOtherBird call dexter...

[SnoopysOtherBird]

@BrokenGoods hm...works for me.

[Askthisguy]

@SnoopysOtherBird then kill who ever is bullying you, dicks.

[ArcaneWeirdo1]

@SnoopysOtherBird

this is why so many psychopaths walk the streets these days. he claims he's a serial killer, and everyone just assumes he's joking.......what if he's not? DUM DUM DUUMMMMMMM

[kassieanne9]

The Trevor Project helped me through a really rough time, and it makes me happy to be able agree with these pledges and say that it does get better :)

[F1otis333]

She really touced me... I get bullied almost every day!

[Dbane567]

What is the deal with these stupid PSA's, is Alan Ball so insecure about his own sexuality that he needs the true blood actors to speak for him?

[HeyMrDJ]

@Dbane567 - Who the hell is Alan Ball, and why would you think this is about him. This is about the Trevor Project and the "It Gets Better" campaign to try to keep so many youngsters from going as far as commiting suicide. These videos are being made by celebrities around the world, entire national sports teams, top government officials including the President, Secretary of State, ex-First Lady Laura Bush, and the staffs of Google, Apple, Facebook., etc..... Now, who is Alan Ball??

[Dbane567]

@HeyMrDJ

Alan Ball is the creator and writer of true blood. He is also a Homosexual. Which led me to believe that he was paying these actor's/actresses to speak for the gay community. BTW when will it get better, sounds like a bunch of stupid liberal propaganda to me.

[kiltlvr]

@Dbane567,

Alan Ball does NOT pay the actors of True Blood to participate in these PSAs. As for this being liberal - of course it's liberal. The "liberals" stand for social activism, social progressivism. The Liberals are the ones who gain ground for those in society people like you would discard and deem as worthless. I'm proud to be liberal. You're just a troll.

[WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWVWW]

@Dbane567 omg Alan Ball is gay?

[Greenkai3000]

@Dbane567 Then fucking don't watch the show, or this video and take your idiotic, bigoted head out of your ass, and your stupid self out of here.

[Dbane567]

@Greenkai3000

You sir are proof that all liberals are pussys and afraid of anything that speaks out against their ignorance. I think I'll stick around since I am so welcomed here.

[doremiABC123youandme]

Ahh, she's so much more open-minded and accepting than Arlene. :P

[SuckyGuitaristSinger]

"Life is temporary" Yup, eventually we all die XD

[SerasxAlucard]

I get bullied for believing in God : /

[xxpocketmonster]

@SerasxAlucard I get bullied for not believing in god : \

[SerasxAlucard]

@xxpocketmonster Sorry bro *or Sister :) *

[xxpocketmonster]

@SerasxAlucard Haha (sister) s'all good xD

[SerasxAlucard]

@xxpocketmonster :)

[racheladams456]

Arlene is a little annoying, but Carrie is amazing.

[83annak]

it's very convincing and good! She did an amazing job with that one!!!

[LluviaAva]

aww I like this one and she looks so pretty. Reminded me of a mother comforting her child.

[salgeezy]

why would you give you're baby an old, dirty, creepy, raggidy doll. it's cursed. get rid of that fucking doll!!

[poppenlol]

[Deadmansparty2002]

Good message. :)

[Porcelanesa]

I didn't get bullied as a kid, but this makes me feel better somehow.

A message of hope. I'm sharing this!

[StarsSaphire]

She seems so sincere!
