It’s getting close to the return of The Vampire Diaries and we’ve got photos from the season 3 opener “The Birthday” and some details of the ep.

We know the show starts up with Elena’s 18th birthday (so she’s legal guardian to her younger brother Jeremy, now that Aunt Jenna is dead.) Stefan is on his Great Ripper Race with Klaus and Damon is brooding. Caroline and Tyler are getting closer – much closer. Jeremy still sees dead people, but now he does it at the Mystic Grill, working with Matt.

TVD returns Thursday, September 15th at 8pm ET.

The Vampire Diaries stars are red hot and Rolling Stone grabs the super sexy leads for a fun photo shoot.

Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev fall, jump and stare in the hottest way possible. I mean seriously – who else but these three can fall and look absolutely amazing at the same time!

Here’s what they had to say:

Ian wants you to peep TVD: “The whole Twilight thing is about to be over. And teenage girls can’t watch True Blood with their parents — that would just get weird. So we’re getting ready to kick some major ass this season.”

Nina on the photo shoot: “We’ve been doing a photo shoot that’s unlike any that we’ve done before,” says Dobrev. “We’re testing the limits of gravity.” (Err… falling is actually adhering to the laws of gravity… I’m guessing she’s referring to how the end shots look.)

TVD is back with season 3 premiering Thursday, September 15th at 8pm ET. Their issue of Rolling Stone (with the Red Hot Chili Peppers on the cover) is on sale now.

Nina Dobrev was a knock out at the 2011 Teen Choice Awards on Sunday, August 7th at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, CA.

The Vampire Diaries star hit a fashion home run in a D & G blue gingham dress with squared neckline and flared skirt. She had her hair pulled back in a cute ponytail and looked great!

I have to say, I like this look so much better than what she’s worn at other awards shows recently.

Nina Dobrev stepped out on the red carpet in San Diego last weekend for the Cowboys & Aliens premiere.

Dobrev and some of her costars from The Vampire Diaries, were at Comic-Con promoting the show’s upcoming third season.

The 22 year-old  chose a black dress with lace inset panels from Zuhair Murad. Nina paired the dress with an orangey red set of platform heels.

The actress and her boyfriend Ian Somerhalder, were also spotted at the EW party later that evening where the two were reportedly “inseparable” and indulged in a little PDA.

The upcoming season of The Vampire Diaries promises loads of plot twists and turns – let’s face it, it’s become known for shocking the viewer with unpredicted journeys.

One of last season’s carry-over storyline – Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley) reverting to his ‘blood addiction’ thanks to Klaus’ (Joseph Morgan) evil ways – has Wesley very excited to explore this side of Stefan, according to costar Nina Dobrev.

“Paul is very happy that Stefan is now going to the dark side,” Dobrev told MTV at Comic-Con.

“He’s really excited about it, and I think it’s going to be great for him. He’s a very strong actor, so it’s awesome.”

Nina drops a small hint about Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and his ability to be the hero with Stefan out of the way.

“He’s as heroic as Damon can be,” she said. “Damon will always have a rough, kind of tough side to him, so take that as you will.”

“He has redeeming qualities but he’s still damaged goods in many ways, as we all are. We’ve all got baggage.”

The Vampire Diaries returns to The CW on Thursday, September 15th.

“The Vampire Diaries” star Nina Dobrev confessed she is not the biggest fan of Valentine’s Day, especially when she does not have a boyfriend to share it with, in a new interview for MTV (see video below).

However, the 22 year-old actress ended up revealing she is a hopelessly romantic when she chose Aerosmith’s power ballad “I Don’t Want To Miss a Thing” as her favorite slow jam.

Nina was also asked about what would be the perfect Valentine’s Day for her characters, Elena and Catherine, in the CW’s hit show. For Elena, Nina says she should go on a date with Matt and eat a burger; and Stefan and Damon should offer Catherine a bunny (a living one for her to feed on…). Funny.

“The Vampire Diaries” actress Nina Dobrev confessed she was deeply hurt when a good friend broke her trust and betrayed her in a recent interview for Twist Magazine.

The 21 year-old could not reveal what exactly her friend did to her due to its painful and private nature, but says it was absolutely devastating. Nina felt lonely and insecure. She had to learn how to trust someone again.

“I think betrayal is the hardest friendship problem anyone can experience, and personally, it’s the hardest thing that I’ve ever gone through,” Nina tells TWIST. “A few years ago, a friend I loved and cared about betrayed me.”

“I dwelled on it for such a long time. I didn’t think I would ever be able to move on,” Nina says. “I realized my negative feelings forward her were putting me in a bad place. I think everything is forgivable because there’s no point in holding grudges and bad energy towards people.”

Nina learned how to forgive and forget, putting the situation behind her to be able to move on with her life. Now she surrounds herself with positivity and true friends, the ones who would never let her down.

I guess we all have been through something like that at some point in our lives. Nina gives a great testimony and sends a good message for everyone who has been hurt by someone they trusted and cared deeply.

Actress Mia Kirshner, best known for her roles in “The L Word” and “24”, will play Elena’s (Nina Dobrev) mother Isobel, who abandoned her daughter while she was still a baby. Isobel, a woman fascinated by vampires who apparently was turned into one by Damon (Ian Somerhalder), wants to meet Elena at all costs but their relationship won’t be easy as the slogan – “Connected to her mother by blood, not love” – suggests.
