Anna Paquin is featured in the July issue of Self Magazine.
In the photo shoot for the magazine Anna reveals how she beats the heat: skimpy bikinis and short-shorts.
“After I was cast and I realized my body would be exposed all the time, I went out and bought some shorts — I owned none — to help me get used to it,” Paquin reveals.
Her scantily clad character has crept into her real life as well.
“You stop thinking, Do I look weird at this angle? I’ve learned to feel comfortable wearing very little. It’s liberating!” she says.
Paquin has also liberated herself of her need for footwear.
“I love being barefoot,” she confesses. “I’m not going to lie — I love my high heels, too, so I’m completely bipolar in that regard.”

The girl could be beautiful with/without makeup, and with/without shoes…you can tell she works hard. Just don’t overdo it Anna- there’s too many out there that overdo it and get too skinny imho; though the only ones whose opionion really matters is yours and maybe Stephen’s in all honesty.
*sigh* ‘in my younger days…’

She is a beautiful and classy lady with a great shape it is so natural and not overdone in anyway. I hate too thin or when women workout and they look like weightlifters with those big muscles.

i think she looks just right. she is a great role model for other starlets. she actually works hard and you see the results. that’s a role model for anyone. you don’t look good without eating right and working out. there is no lazy miracle that will make you have a hot body and be healthy. she is very slim, but still looks womanly and curvy. that is ideal.
