When “Mildred Pierce” star Evan Rachel Wood (who absolutely killed it in last night’s episode of the mini-series) showed up in a role as lesbian vampire queen Sophie-Anne Leclerq in “True Blood,” she famously said "I haven't enjoyed sex with men since the Eisenhower administration."

Sounds like that wasn’t too far from the truth.
