Hold Up – We’re Moving To Stockholm! Alexander Skarsgård Gives Out Kisses In Gay Club
Swedish hunk Alexander Skarsgård is renowned for his acting talent and beloved by the LGBTQIA+ community for being an ally. Recently, Skarsgård was recognised at Club Backdoor in Stockholm by fans and began handing out selfies and kisses. When will it be our turn?!

The 47-year-old actor is best known for his roles in The Northman, The Legend Of Tarzan, Zoolander and, probably our favourite role, True Blood. Club Backdoor, where Skarsgård was spotted, is considered the largest gay club in Scandinavia and the actor was not shy about being recognised.
In fact, he happily ran about giving kisses to fans while wearing a Vanity Vain T-shirt. In a serendipitous coincidence, drag queen Vanity Vain was at Club Backdoor, too, and made sure to snap a pic with Alexander. Talk about good press!
Skarsgård is beloved in the gay community for a number of reasons, least of all his appearance in the now-iconic Paparazzi music video with Lady Gaga. He has given interviews speaking about his connection with the LGBTQIA+ community and how he has never been phased by sexual orientation.
“It’s always been the most natural thing to me because my uncle and godfather is a gay man and so growing up, even as a little toddler, it was just as natural as being straight,” Alexander tells Windy City Times in an interview. “When I became a teenager and the kids made fun of other teenagers who were gay, I never really understood that. It just baffled me because my idol, my godfather, was gay, and he was the coolest guy I knew. I just couldn’t understand how that could be an insult.”
When he played Eric Northman in True Blood, the character was openly bisexual and some particularly steamy scenes required Alexander to get intimate with his male co-stars. We know for sure he has no problem with getting a little homie-sexual if you catch our drift.
