Alexander Skarsgård Went in Drag to ‘Diary of a Teenage Girl’ Premiere (For a Reason)

Alexander Skarsgård, perhaps most notable for his role in TV’s True Blood, turned up in sparkly drag to the premiere of The Diary of a Teenage Girl, which he co-stars in. He didn’t just do it for funsies, according to Vanity Fair


So why did Skarsgård choose drag? […] Well, the truth of that matter is, when in the famously gay-friendly Castro, do as the drag queens do! The Diary of a Teenage Girl was filmed in and around the Castro neighborhood and co-stars famous San Francisco drag entertainer Joshua Grannell—a.k.a. Peaches Christ. Peaches is a staple midnight-movie hostess at the Castro Theater, so when it came time for her film to premiere there, her hometown venue pulled out the stops with a fun drag show preceding the screening.
