True Blood is adding a hot new fairy for its sixth season. No, not that kind of fairy but a faerie. Rob Kazinsky has been tapped by the supernatural drama to play Ben who helps Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) and her brother Jason (Ryan Kwanten) discover the truth behind their parent’s murders. Reportedly, Kazinsky will be a regular cast member of the HBO next season. Rumor has it he’ll also play, yet another love interest, for Sookie. In my next supernatural life, I’d like to come back as Sookie. First Eric Northman, then Alicide and now this. How lucky can one woman get?
Kazinksy hails from West Sussex, England. The 28-year-old actor is best known for his role on UK’s long-running soap, EastEnders. Robert is of Polish and Russian descent. Originally, he was to appear as Fili in the upcoming film, The Hobbit. Citing personal reasons, Kazinsky backed out of the role months after his casting was announced. Fans of ABC’s Brothers & Sisters might recognize him when he guest starred as Dr. Rick Appleton on the show. In 2008, he ranked No. 3 on All About Soap’s annual list of 100 Sexiest Men in Soap. Check out True Blood’s new addition below and see if you agree with the publication’s sexy assessment.

Donovan, although I’ll happily look at picture after picture of Rob Kazinsky, that large black and white picture is Juan Martin Hernandez – an Argentinian rugby player!!!

oh ummm, hello?? I believe the shirtless B&W photo is not Rob’s, but some French rugby player for 2006 (?) Dieux du Stade calendar. I know because it was the cover for my first Attitude magazine I bought.
And the one with white shirt and glasses is also suspect, it’s more like Josh Duhamel in his furry days (God, if only he stays that way).
I could be wrong for the white shirt, but I’m pretty sure about that French rugby player.

The Dieux du Stade Attitude cover was 2004 & is a completely different pic/guy (Google it – I did), he is wearing the same pendant in the b&w pic as the colour pic above it.

He ranks about an 8.5 out of 10 on my “How much does he resemble Ben Browder?” scale, so I’m all for his addition to the show.
