If you've attended a horror convention, you've no doubt been star-struck once or twice, but it isn't often you see celebrities themselves in that position. That's exactly what happened when actor Joe Manganiello met author Anne Rice at her February 17th The Wolf Gift signing in La.
The "True Blood" star surprised Ms. Rice just before the proceedings started at a local Barnes & Noble, presenting her with flowers and citing her works as a big influence during his formative years. She responded by calling his Alcide her "favorite werewolf". Both were obviously flustered and flattered, but they were nowhere near as excited as the crowd was once Manganiello walked her out into the waiting throng in the store.
