"I'm Anna Paquin. I'm bisexual, and I give a damn," she said. Later on, after being asked about her participation in the video, she said that "it wasn't like it was a big secret, it was just a cause I cared about and privately supported, but not one that I had ever had an opportunity to speak out about in a way that would be useful."

Anna Paquin has since then made clear her bisexuality is a choice. "My sexuality is not made up, for a bisexual, it's not about gender. That's not the deciding factor to who they're attracted to," she said during an interview with US Weekly in 2012. Anna has been married to actor Stephen Moyer since 2010. She has two children.
