Kate Bosworth allegedly playing hard to get with Alexander Skarsgard

Spike TV's Scream 2009 - Show
Betty Confidential reports that Kate Bosworth is supposedly driving True Blood hottie Alexander Skarsgard mad by playing hard to get. Kate has probably slept with the Swedish hunk, but she’s allegedly not always available for him and is coy about her ability to commit. Isn’t that how you’re supposed to play it in the beginning stages of a relationship? This story contradicts an earlier report from Eonline (via Lainey Gossip) that had Bosworth barely getting any attention from Skarsgard and cornering him at a party. Maybe she realized that she needed to switch it up if she wanted to keep him on the hook.

Even though she feels like she’s ready for a relationship — Kate dated actor Orlando Bloom from 2002 to 2006 and model James Rousseau for three years until they split last year — “she worries Alex is a playboy,” says the source, adding that “every girl is love struck when they meet him.”

So Kate’s trying to keep her distance. “She’s focusing more on her career than Alex’s flirting,” says the source but it’s difficult considering the two are currently shooting the remake of the ’70s thriller Straw Dogs. Even when they’re not working together, “Alex texts and calls Kate all the time. He’s trying every trick in the book.” The 33-year-old Swedish native, who was recently linked to his True Blood co-star Evan Rachel Wood, “really likes Kate and enjoys her company,” says the insider and he will do whatever it takes to win her over.

And it looks like his persistence may be paying off. “Alex tells her, ‘I’m not giving up’ and that she’s the only one for him,” reveals the source. “It’s getting harder and harder for Kate just to be friends.”

I feel like this could be leaked by Kate’s camp to make her look less desperate after she said she adored Alexander Skarsgard and called him a “wonderful, wonderful man.” She didn’t confirm a relationship but she could have been less ebullient if she wanted to play it off like she didn’t care. So now she’s playing hard to get and Skarsgard is all over her? It could happen, and if this is the case I have to give the little thing credit for keeping that gorgeous man interested. Damn her.

    I agree it’s probably leaked from her camp, for those reasons, plus it keeps her in the news. Without the AS story floating around, no one would be talking about her at all.

    I’m calling bullshit on this. It completely counteracts everything that has ever been written about her, or them. Smells like a PR stunt!

    Really hard to believe. I never know what to believe about what I read. He doesn`t seem to be into the whole Hollywood scene, but she does.

    If he was so eager to be with her, I doubt he’d keep insisting that he is single. Also this quote reeks of PR:

    She’s focusing more on her career than Alex’s flirting,” says the source but it’s difficult considering the two are currently shooting the remake of the ’70s thriller Straw Dogs

    1. They’re not shooting Straw Dogs anymore. Alex is busy filming True Blood. Kate is busy doing.. what, I don’t know. 2. She’s been attending all the events he’s been going to because of True Blood. That’s hardly keeping her distance. In fact this sounds like something written by her PR to cover for them soon “breaking up”, meaning Alex going out with someone else.

    It does sound like something Kate Bosworth’s publicist came up with. No one is talking about her career so being linked to this guy is what keeps her in the news.

    This man should not be allowed to smile. He should just smolder, and look like he could rip your throat out at any moment… it’s so hot.

    Kate, step away from the sexy Swede.

    Alex, you can do better than this PR hungry nobody (who frickin’ ruined Superman Returns!).

    Whoohoo, can’t wait for season 3 of True Blood!

    Kate knows how the game is played. If you’re going to be a beard, the trade-off is lots of publicity.

    I don’t believe that Alex is gay, or that he’d have a “beard” if he was. He’s Swedish–they are very open about sex and sexuality. If he was gay, I bet he’d be out and proud. It would in no way lessen women’s desire to sleep with him/fantasize about him. So, it wouldn’t really impact his career…

    Kate is pretty… I like her off-colour eyes. Why does she get so much hate?

    No way. Alex is not gay and he isn’t chasing her.
    Kate is a desperate grasping starlet who has overstayed her relevance.
    I bet he shows up with someone else in a few weeks.

    Is PR supposed to be this obvious? Kate follows Askars around to his events, not vice versa, and Kate seems to be hanging with his friends, not her own. The kissy kissy seems to be mutual, but it sure doesn’t look like Kate playing hard to get.

    No way Jose!
    My radar is reading this as BS.
    She’s following him around like a puppy (or b*tch is more suitable in this case).
    He’s always been sincere and he keeps denying any link to her.
    I’m not buying it. She’s pulling this off.

    I call BS also. It seems like if he was sooo interested in her, he would walk the red carpets with her, not hide her. The whole thing has seemed like her chasing him. He hates the paparazzi, but yet every time they are together somehow the press “magically” knows. I say she’s letting them in on their plans so she can get press. His career is skyrocketing, and she’s hanging on to his coattails as hard as she can.
