The Vampire Diaries season 3 premiere is still too far away, but luckily the CW is giving us naked Ian Somerhalder to tide fans over.

Yep, that’s right. Damon gets soaped up in the new sizzle reel and gives Elena (Nina Dobrev) an eyeful.

And being TVD, you have to wait for it – around the 3:10 mark.

It’s mostly a rehash of what happened last year: Stefan (Paul Wesley) going on a blood bender with Klaus (Joseph Morgan). Elijah (Daniel Gillies) explaining the hybrid deal. Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) and the ghosts of girlfriends past (Malese Jow & Kayla Ewell) after Bonnie’s (Kat Graham) spell has unintended consequences. Caroline (Candice Accola) and Matt (Zach Roerig) trying to keep Tyler (Michael Trevino) from biting them while in wolf form.

Then, like in every episode, the last few moments bring the wow…

Katerina Graham made a red carpet appearance at the 42nd Annual NAACP Image Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on Friday, March 4th.

The Vampire Diaries star wore an ivory bustier with gold trim and white skirt with ruffled layers and was a presenter at the awards ceremony. The “Sassy Girl” singer had a very old Hollywood glamour hair style for the evening and she looked fabulous! I love that she has her own unique fashion sense and doesn’t compromise her individuality.

Graham recently took part in The CW’s behind-the-scenes video diary where she and her costar, Steven R McQueen took turns poking fun at each other’s skateboard skills. Go here to check out the video.

The Vampire Diaries is all new tonight and after last weeks showdown of Tyler and the wolf pack VS Stefan & Damon (with a little big Jonas assist) Stefan and Elena try to get away from it all and have a nice weekend of togetherness. Not happening.

Here is the official synopsis of episode 2.14 “Crying Wolf”

Catch it on The CW at 8pm ET.

SECRETS AND LIES — Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) get away for what they hope will be a romantic weekend at the Gilbert family lake house, not realizing that they’ve been followed. Jenna (Sara Canning) starts to worry that Alaric (Matt Davis) isn’t being honest with her. Jules (guest star Michaela McManus) explains the importance of the sun and moon curse to Tyler (Michael Trevino), but leaves out an important detail. Damon (Ian Somerhalder) attends a tea at the Historical Society in order to talk to Elijah (guest star Daniel Gillies), but Elijah isn’t giving up any secrets. With help from Caroline (Candice Accola) and Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen), Bonnie (Katerina Graham) uses deceptive measures to get shocking new information out of Luka (guest star Bryton James). Finally, Tyler offers Matt (Zach Roerig) some relationship advice. David Von Ancken directed the episode written by Brian Young (#214).

The Vampire Diaries star Steven R. McQueen revs a lot of girls engines as he rides a motorcycle on the beach for a Vanity Fair photo shoot.

The 22 year-old who plays Jeremy Gilbert on the hit show says Jere is “as messed up as possible in the head,” and that was the appeal for him as an actor.

McQueen didn’t start out following in the family business (both his grandfather, Hollywood legend Steve McQueen and his father Chad McQueen are actors.) He says he had a bit of a shiftless time when living with his mom and stepdad. He wasn’t sure what he wanted:

“When we were living in Detroit, I had a real lack of direction,” says McQueen. “I started watching movies all day long.”

“I watched my grandfather’s projects with admiration and looked up to him, but at the end of the day you have to be true to what’s inside.”

Glad he found something he’s happy with.

Finally! The Vampire Diaries is back tonight and brand new. Episode 2.10 “The Sacrifice” and next week’s “By The Light Of The Moon” focus a bit more on the werewolf transformation that Tyler endures.

JEREMY MAKES A DANGEROUS MISTAKE — Elena (Nina Dobrev) decides to take matters into her own hands and offers a tempting incentive to Rose (guest star Lauren Cohan) for her help.  When things take an unexpected turn, however, Rose calls on Damon (Ian Somerhalder) to deal with the plan Elena has set in motion.  Jeremy’s (Steven R. McQueen) reckless attempt to help Bonnie (Katerina Graham) retrieve the moonstone lands him in a life-threatening position and forces Stefan (Paul Wesley) to put himself in danger.  Bonnie and Luka (guest star Bryton James) form a closer connection.  Tyler (Michael Trevino) shows Caroline (Candice Accola) the Lockwood cellar, where she makes a discovery that leaves them both terrified.  Sara Canning, Zach Roerig and Matt Davis also star.

Catch the epi tonight, Thursday December 2nd at 8PM on The CW.

The Vampire Diaries has only two new episodes left between now and the holidays so they have to pack the kinda punch that keeps everyone hooked until the January 2011 shows. The big teaser all season long has been will Tyler (Michael Trevino) Lockwood activate the curse (yes!) and when will his transformation to a werewolf be seen. Executive producer Julie Plec explained the upcoming December 2nd episode like this:

“They shot it (the transformation) over two days. Closed set, special effects makeup guys, visual effects guys, Michael Trevino ready to rip out his soul and expose it bare to the world. I think if it’s even half as good as what we want it to be, it’s gonna be amazing.”

This part we already knew, but what she says next is kinda spoilery so don’t go further if you don’t want to know!

Katerina Graham was on hand to honor Glee’s Jane Lynch at the LA Gay and Lesbian Center’s 39th Anniversary Gala held at the Hyatt Regency Plaza Hotel in West Hollywood, California on Saturday November 13th. The “Cold Hearted Snake” singer was dressed in a one shoulder icy blue lace dress that was gorgeous on her. Other stars on hand, Glee guys Matthew Morrison and Ryan Murphy, Kathy Griffin and Perez Hilton.

Graham’s storyline on The Vampire Diaries is starting to kick in and it’s shaping up to be a very interesting arc for her witch character, Bonnie Bennett. Not only is Bonnie getting flirty with Jeremy (Steven R McQueen) she now has another guy checking her out. Luka, (Bryton James) a fellow spellcaster, could be trouble for Miss Bennett. We also found out in the “Katerina” episode (named after vampire Katherine) that Bonnie, Caroline (Candice Accola) and Tyler (Michael Trevino) are integral parts of the doppleganger storyline involving Elena (Nina Dobrev). I won’t give it away in case you haven’t seen the episode yet – check it out when they upload it on CWTV sometime this week.

The Vampire Diaries is all new tonight with episode 8: “Rose.” In this and next week’s show “Katerina,” we begin to learn more about the evil Katherine and the two vampires that kidnapped Elena in “Masquerade.” Here is the official synopsis of “Rose:”

AN ANCIENT PRESENCE IN MYSTIC FALLS — Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) come to Elena’s (Nina Dobrev) assistance and, in the process, learn surprising new information about people, vampires and events in the distant past. Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) helps Bonnie (Katerina Graham) after she casts a difficult and exhausting spell, and Caroline (Candice Accola) does what she can to make things easier for Tyler (Michael Trevino). Finally, Stefan and Damon reach a new understanding.

Michael Trevino, Zach Roerig and Steven R McQueen are the subject of Seventeen magazine’s photo shoot for the November issue. The stars of The Vampire Diaries show off their more sensitive side in these great shots (girls, officially begin swooning now!)

The photos are great and I love the fact that all three actor’s characters are becoming more integrated into the show this year. Tyler Lockwood (Trevino) gets all wolfy soon and Matt (Roerig) has a vampire ex-girlfriend to contend with (and possibly Katherine (Nina Dobrev) has her sights on him as well.) But Jeremy Gilbert (McQueen) happens to be my favorite as he really has great potential to have a real friendship with Tyler and a true deep resentment of Damon (Ian Somerhalder.)

“The Vampire Diaries” actress Candice Accola was surprised with a major transformation in her character’s life – Caroline Forbes was killed by Katherine (Nina Dobrev) while she had Damon Salvatore’s (Ian Somerhalder) blood running through her veins. Caroline became a vampire!

The Vampire Diaries SPOILERS: Who Is Going To Die?

Executive producers, Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec explained they wanted someone human to be part of the vampire storyline in a different and more complex plot adjacent to the fascinating love triangle between Damon, Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) and Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley).

“One of the things Julie and I both struggled with last year were the supporting characters,” Williamson said. “Everyone seemed to zero in on the love triangle and anyone involved in the supernatural world had a lot of story.

“We struggled to incorporate any human in the dark into the story. We want humans in the show, but we needed an element that would involve the other supporting characters.”

The question is: for how long will Caroline be able to survive as a vampire? Check out SPOILERS Below Read more »
