Get ready for a wild ride, folks! The stars of Interview with the Vampire, Sam Reid and Jacob Anderson, have taken a break from their usual brooding to dive headfirst into the steamy world of fan tweets. And let me tell you, it’s a sight to behold!
While promoting their upcoming sequel show, The Vampire Lestat, the duo appeared on Buzzfeed Celeb, where they were treated to a reading of the thirstiest fan tweets imaginable. Picture this: Reid, who plays the dashing Lestat, and Anderson, the brooding Louis, grappling with the concept of the Omegaverse. It’s as hilarious as it sounds!
As they read tweets like, “Louis is a hidden omega” and “Lestat is the horny alpha who stalks over him,” their confusion is absolutely priceless. Reid looks like he’s just been handed a calculus problem, while Anderson, bless him, tries to piece it together. “I know what this means, it’s something to do with werewolves or dogs,” he quips, and honestly, he’s not far off.
For those not in the know, the Omegaverse is a subgenre of erotic fan fiction that divides characters into alphas, betas, and omegas, with a hierarchy that’s as complicated as it is steamy. The Buzzfeed producer jumps in to explain, “Omega is like the bottom and the submissive one, and the alpha is the dominant and the top.” And just when you think it can’t get any wilder, they drop the bombshell that “omegas can get pregnant regardless of their gender.” Anderson’s reaction? “Oh that’s progressive, I’m into that.” Can we get a round of applause for the representation?
But the fun doesn’t stop there. The actors also faced tweets that had them in stitches, like one fan wanting to be a “vampiric kebab” sandwiched between the two characters. And let’s not forget the tweet about wanting to eat Lestat’s “used thong right off him.” I mean, who knew vampires could be so… appetizing?
Anderson even joked about releasing “the butthole cut” of the show, which had Reid in fits of laughter. But the real highlight? Reid trying and failing to pronounce “bussy.” He hilariously mispronounces it as “buzzy,” sending Anderson into a fit of giggles. “Oh, I still didn’t get it right?” Reid asks, clearly baffled by the whole ordeal.
This delightful episode is a reminder of how fandom can bridge gaps and create connections, even in the most unexpected ways.
