Interesting Quote: Nelsan Ellis

That people like that character [Laughs]. There’s something about the dude that’s likeable. Even I was watching myself and criticizing myself—I go, “I like that dude.” The most intriguing thing about him is his strength and his stillness. If you watch Lafayette he doesn’t do very much. He’s not quick on his toes unless he gets heated. He’s just in that Southern way—sort of sauntering along, being who he is which is something I never intended. It just happened.

Nelsan talking about what's intriguing about his character, Lafayette

Dear HBO...

Please don't kill off Lafayette! He's one of the best gay characters we got and he brings it every time. For once, we don't have the model-like, myopic, boring, club hopping gay. We have Lafayette, something fresh and exciting. True Blood is exciting and keeping him on the show will take it over the top!

The ending was questionable, but please let him stay. He's the best thing to happen to gay characters in long long long time.

Keep Lafayette Around!! Oh, and True Blood ROCKS!!!

P.S. if you can, cast a spell to erase The Lair from existence.
