Re: Rutina Wesley
Ya'll she broke up with her fiance a year ago. Her fiance has a new girlfriend. I've been following both of them for a while. Rutina's been looking rough ever since the breakup.

She gained a lot of weight. Is there going to be a True Blood reunion show? I've heard about it.superfemme wrote: ↑21 Jan 2021, 05:43Ya'll she broke up with her fiance a year ago.

? Gained a lot of weight? I don't see anything shocking. Standard for her age and COVID. Still looks good.Guest wrote: ↑21 Jan 2021, 07:04She gained a lot of weight.

Re: Rutina Wesley
Oh really? I remember shipping her character Tara with Pam in True Blood like a mad person. especially after that epic Kiss Tara gave Pam in the prison cell.superfemme wrote: ↑21 Jan 2021, 05:43Ya'll she broke up with her fiance a year ago.

So funny Rutina had a thing for the ladies IRL as well. Maybe Rutina had something to do with them writing Tara as gay Season 2 of True Blood.
I was an avid follower of her on facebook way back and she commented back. Guys, she has the cutest Russian Blue cat I've ever seen. she seem like a real sweetheart.
Kristin van Straten who plays Pam said that Rutina was very special to work with. Some days on set she was super cheerful singing all the time and other days she was very introverted and quiet. hmm
Re: Rutina Wesley
I always thought she was stunningly beautiful. I just finished binge watching True Blood too... Man, i hate that they killed her character. I loved her and Pam together. She was awesome in that show. She along with Nelsan Ellis (RIP), Kristen Bauer & Alex Skarsgård were my favorites. She's amazing on Queen Sugar too.
A shame she and her fiance didn't make it. They looked good together.

Tara got a really raw deal on True Blood. Not the first time that's happened with a black character on a supernatural show unfortunatelyKimmy wrote: ↑28 May 2021, 19:48I always thought she was stunningly beautiful.

Her character Tara was a huge part of the success story of Season 1, after that both writers and mainstream viewers only gave her hate. I wonder how that hate would look now, after the BLM movement.
I personally think she discovered her lady love side after her first divorce, and women starting to approach her based on her gay character on TV
Re: Rutina Wesley
DA I find her so beautiful too. Striking. I really thought they killed her off because it was heading for the end of the series and they wanted to make a maximum impact but True Blood reruns were on recently and just watching them as an older more mature person the things Tara went through in contrast to the other characters irked me, and I can't believe I never fully saw it before. So disappointing. The show doesn't need a revival. They did all they could with it imo - it went on wayyyy longer than it should have.

Reviving this dead topic cause I felt like it. What’s going on with her life?

"I like what I like" I think her next partner will be a girlfriend
Re: Rutina Wesley
I was tryin to search for Pam and see if Kristin and Rutina were in contact. couldn't find her cos she changed her last name. Divorce it looks like. Man I'm so behind on True Blood gossip!!
Re: Rutina Wesley
Noticed Kristin changed her name on insta earlier this year as well as twitter account. she's been acting very weird ever since spiraling out of control having green hair and posting weird videos. Haven't seen her post about Rutina for a long time.Guest wrote: ↑23 Jun 2021, 06:35I was tryin to search for Pam and see if Kristin and Rutina were in contact. couldn't find her cos she changed her last name.

Rutina did good for herself after True Blood, she had the talent to fall back on when most of the TB cast seem to be struggling.
Re: Rutina Wesley
Looks like a completely different person from the first post at the top of the page.
Re: Rutina Wesley
Yeah but that's an old photo of her in character playing Tara on True Blood, can't be compared to what she looks like and wears IRL. Rutina always loved sneakers and hoodies and wore them frequently over the years but her hairstyle and cut is recent and looks real cool on her
Re: Rutina Wesley
I just learned about this actress today from this thread lol. I checked her Instagram and found this pic that looks a little more like her face in the first images. She is prettyGuest wrote: ↑23 Jun 2021, 07:34Yeah but that's an old photo of her in character playing Tara on True Blood, can't be compared to what she looks like and wears IRL.

Re: Rutina Wesley
Cool, you should check her out and some of her works. Amazingly gifted theater trained actress who went to Juliard
She's posting a lot of gay stuff on her insta. her most recent post some queer ballet dance with 2 women. Would love to see her hook up with another female so we can do a bit of tracking here
Anyone know how long she was dating that lady chef?

Re: Rutina Wesley
That RS seemed toxic as hell to me. rutina was constantly posting poems and quotes about giving too much of herself and being stepped all over. it was a hard RS to break free from and she might have some work yet to do, to attract the right person in.

Unrelated but does anybody remember Nelsan, may he rest in peace, calling Rutina during a comic com panel for the fans? Cant find the vid, but it was so damn adorable.
Re: Rutina Wesley
Haha. Yeah Alexander Fucking Skarsgård killed everything after True Blood. You almost felt he never should've done the Eric part, afraid he was gonna be typecasted after that show becoming a bit of an Edward *"Twilight" character when he had theater trained talent to fall back on, back then when it was very uncool to play a vampire on TVGuest wrote: ↑23 Jun 2021, 10:15Alex S has done pretty well for himself.

I mean Anna P, Alex, Joe, all of them did really well but I was talking in general terms of the entire cast, those not as popular. Rutina did extremely well for herself especially as a POC actress, when she could've easily been out of work mostly doing theater gigs. I still think she's one to keep your eyes on and that she may land something even bigger in the future. Her acting skills are truly remarkable if you watch her other characters (Other than Tara who always got the short end of the stick) and the layers she's able to portrait. That's a very rare gift the amount of layers she puts in

Tara got a really raw deal. I hate it when that happens. Reminds of Bonnie from The Vampire Diaries
Re: Rutina Wesley
totally but thankfully these studios and shithead writers & directors can't get away with it as badly as before
Re: Rutina Wesley
Tara and Lafayette were the best characters on the show. The rest were kinda boring at best.

Agree, their banters and quotes had you ballin w tears those first seaons. Season 1 in particular. but then the writers shifted gears and decided to through every disaster they could find on Tara, kidnapping, rape, you name it.Guest wrote: ↑23 Jun 2021, 16:11Tara and Lafayette were the best characters on the show.

But I enjoyed her storyline in New orleans when she became a boxer and hooked up with that hot girl we even got some sex scenes out of that. Tara going down on that girl. True Blood delivered when it came to sex lol.
