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.

The Vampire Diaries heads into werewolf territory officially tonight in episode 2.11 “By The Light Of The Moon” and we see that the Lockwood family curse is really that – a curse. Oh yeah, and there is hot cave action between Stefan and Katherine…

“By The Light Of The Moon” (CONTENT RATING TBD) (HDTV)

TYLER FACES HIS FIRST TRANSFORMATION — As the full moon approaches, Caroline (Candice Accola) helps Tyler (Michael Trevino) prepare for the transformation he is powerless to stop.  While Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Katherine (Nina Dobrev) play mind games on one another, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Alaric (Matt Davis) are suspicious when a stranger named Jules (guest star Michaela McManus) shows up in Mystic Falls, searching for her missing friend, Mason.  Elena (Dobrev) is frustrated at the lengths Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and her friends have gone to in order to keep her safe.  Bonnie (Katerina Graham) and Luca (guest star Bryton James) work together on a spell, while still keeping secrets from one another.  Finally, Elijah (guest star Daniel Gillies) makes an unexpected appearance with an offer that could change everything.  Sara Canning and Zach Roering also star.

The Vampire Diaries is all new tonight, December 9th at 8pm on the CW. Don’t forget – tonight is the end of new episodes until late January!

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.
