lol i had the biggest crush on this guy in 10th grade!
i looked them up and found Lainey mentioned how Ben looked so infatuated with Alicia when she saw them together a few years ago at a Comic Con party, i wonder if there was something![]()
Thanks! Had not read about that. Here's what Lainey said;
"Meanwhile, as Bosworth reels from Skarsgards departure, many of you have written to me asking if the mystery brunette with him at Comic-Con as described here and here is Swedish actress Alicia Vikander. So I googled her and I looked up her photos and I think so but its hard to say for sure since her face in pictures changes all the time, she has one of those faces. But then it lists on Vikanders IMDB that she was at Comic-Con for The Seventh Son with Jeff Bridges and Ben Barnes. And I totally remember her with Ben Barnes that night, for several minutes, and he seemed as besotted with her as everyone else. So, just to be sure, I looked up the panel on YouTube because its way easier for me to check the video for mannerisms to compare with how she was live, in the flesh, than to look at a series of photographs and determine if its her.
Its her.
Shes hot. Start at 4:10 if you just want her part.

Theres another video profile I found too. Lovely face, right? And really bubbly and endearing in person. Im telling you, she had the room that night. She had the whole room. Whether or not she had Alex though...
Like I said, I left before they did. I cant tell you if shes the brunette he took up to his room. I can just tell you he seemed delighted to be around her that night."
I remember that night. Alicia was out partying with Alex and his True Blood co-stars Ryan Kwanten and Michael McMillian, Bjarne (a swedish friend of Alex's) and two girls, I think one was Alicia's friend Rosanna, don't know about the other. I remember it so well because it was a big deal within the True Blood fandom because some magazine had made up a story just days before that Alex and Ryan didn't get along on set (anyone who knew Alex could tell straight away that it was a bull**** story cuz there is no way anyone can hate on him , Alex is the sweetest) but it was really great that the gossip about them not getting along stopped.
Anyways, here's a video of them leaving a party. Alicia is wearing a white shirt.

There were other videos that night too because they kept being followed by paps and fans around San Diego looking for a good party. That's the night the Alicia/Alex dating rumour started and they kept going for about two years untill Alicia finally got tired of it and addressed them in a swedish newspaper, probably because she had started seeing Gustav. Anyways, wonderful to see her getting along so well with her co-stars, they will probably be running into each other in the future unless they aren't already keeping in touch
