In one season on The Vampire Diairies, Candice Accola’s Caroline has gone from human midnight snack for Damon (Ian Somerhalder) to a powerful, slightly neurotic vampire forging a friendship (and possible romance) with werewolf in waiting Tyler Lockwood (Michael Trevino). Accola sees the two forming a sort of alliance that is becoming so strong, all things are possible between the two supernatural characters:

There are hints that Tyler and Caroline’s friendship is something more. Are we going to see them develop a romance?
A lot of great romances can grow from friendship. Of course, there’s definitely a possibility of that. Whether or not that’s going to happen, I don’t know. We’re not that much farther ahead of the audience. So I really don’t know. I know that … Caroline’s the only one that knows what Tyler’s been going through, so that friendship isn’t just going to go away. There’s something there. Whether that turns into a romantic relationship or whether it turns into a really beautiful support system for one another, who knows. The fans will just have to stay tuned and watch.

Romance or friendship-wise, do you think they’re doomed in a way since vampires and werewolves are historically enemies?
It’s definitely got a Romeo and Juliet quality to it, the idea of them becoming romantic. Who knows? That didn’t end very well with Romeo and Juliet. [Laughs] Hopefully, it wouldn’t be that same result for Caroline and Tyler. I don’t know. Really, right now, the most prominent thing going on between both of them is finding a safe place for Tyler to transform. It’s really about his transformation right now. It’s not about anything else, which I think is such a wonderful thing because, for Caroline, any involvement with a member of the opposite sex was immediately sexual throughout the first season. It was immediately like crush-worthy. It wasn’t just like a friendship. I think it’s just a lovely way of showing that she as a character has grown within the second season. It’s more than just about a boy I immediately have to have a crush on. It’s a friendship. It’s something a little bit more substantial.

So what is in store for Caroline & Tyler? The last two shows of 2010 on December 2nd and 9th deal with the werewolves and Tyler’s transformation so there should be lots of scenes together. Should we call them Cyler or Taroline or Fockwood? Either way – I like the Romeo and Juliet aspect of these two characters.

Accola has truly been a wonderful surprise in the second season of TVD – and for a show that is consistently raising the bar every week with twists and shockers – that is saying something.

Check out The Vampire Diaries episode 2.10 “The Sacrifice” on Thursday December 2nd on The CW.

Nina Dobrev is always multi-tasking. The December cover model for Russia’s ElleGirl magazine has a lot on her professional plate.

Playing the roles of Katherine the vampire and her dopplegänger descendant, human Elena on The Vampire Diaries is quite a challenge, but Dobrev is up for it and is “working really hard.”

Along with having twice the scenes, Dobrev has also added an unofficial title to her resume: translator. The actress, who was born in Bulgaria and relocated to Toronto, Canada with her family when she was young, can speak Bulgarian. This came in handy as the writers of the show put Katherine’s origins in her birth country. Dobrev had to tweak her lines a bit, with help from her Mom:

“I called my mom, and she and I translated it,” Dobrev said of the Bulgarian dialogue in the episode titled “Katerina.”

“I think the writers had used an internet translator and it was so funny. All those online translators are never right. So we did it. I translated my own dialogue, but I called my mom just to confirm I was right.”

The 21 year-old actress has been doing a great job playing both parts convincingly, but perhaps she will have a bit of a rest coming up. TVD returns with new episodes on December 2nd and 9th and these seem to (you can never be too sure with the writers on this show!) focus more on the werewolf transformation of Tyler (Michael Trevino.) Love the show, Nina and I can’t wait for new episodes!

Nina Dobrev visited the TBS show Lopez Tonight, with host George Lopez on Wednesday November 17th. The Vampire Diaries actress had a great time with Lopez as he made her “an honorary Latina,” she spoke Bulgarian to him and gave him the run down on how to become a vampire on her show.

Cosmetics brand mark invited fans to take a look “Inside the mark Studio” Q & A with their Beauty Ambassador Ashley Greene in New York City on November 11th. The Twilight actress and MTV’s SuChin Pak came to Glass Houses in the Big Apple to answer questions via a livestream and bring awareness about the company and it’s products. Ashley answered fans about Twilight, her beauty inspiration and how she her idea of stylish has changed since high school:

On getting her start in Twilight: “I originally went in for Bella . . . At that point, I didn’t know that much about the book series. But then I read them to prep for the audition and instantly fell in love and was like, ‘I have to be a part of this.’ I was so wrapped up in the story, I was just as fanatic about it as everyone else. So, I auditioned for Bella . . . Actually, I auditioned a few times. They told me I wasn’t right for it and I was heartbroken — I really, really wanted to be a part of the franchise. Then they came back to me with Alice and I absolutely love the character so I auditioned a few more times and against all odds, I got the part. I screamed, I cried. It was very exciting.”

On her favorite red carpet moment: “It’s a tie. I think the first time I felt like a movie star was at the New Moon premiere in Los Angeles. I was wearing this long Prabal Gurung dress and the makeup was perfect and the fans were amazing. It felt right and the memory is really great. The second was on the European tour, the Eclipse premiere in London. I was wearing a silver L’Wren Scott dress and everything looked and felt like a fairytale.”

On her high school style regrets: “I think I overdid everything. When I look at high school pictures, I think I look a little overdone, a bit contrived. I wasn’t completely self-confident yet, hadn’t come into my own.”

On who inspired her: “Of course, my parents are a huge influence in my life. They’ve been there from the get-go and will always be there. But as far as people in this industry, I think that a lot of people already know that Audrey Hepburn is someone that I really look up to. I think that she would be a Mark girl; she’s beautiful inside and out. But more than that, she’s got an amazing style sense but she really used her position to help out in the world.”

The Simpsons had a special guest star in last night episode: Daniel Radcliffe. We knew that Radcliffe would play a vampire named Edmund and that Twilight would find itself in the writer’s headlights, who knew how great Dan would be as a tiny vampire trying to turn Lisa Simpson?

The annual The Treehouse of Horror Halloween episode had the “Tweenlight” spoof of Edward Cullen this year, who was of course, famously played by Daniel’s one time Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire costar Robert Pattinson. It was delicious as Radcliffe delved into the voice over with zeal as Lisa resisted being turned (“I can’t be eight forever!”) and Homer comes to the rescue.

Kellan Lutz was back in Los Angeles on November 3rd, for the red carpet premiere of the James Franco flick 127 Hours. The film is about a hiker who is trapped at the bottom of a canyon under fallen boulders and has to take extreme measures to ensure he can get out alive. The graphic nature of the film has caused people to faint in some theaters. While there was a medical emergency at the LA premiere, it was unrelated to the movie and Lutz, along with other celebs, were able to continue watching the film.

The Twilight Saga actor has been down in New Orleans filming the final movie in the series: Breaking Dawn. The very hot (and currently very single – no more AnnaLynne McCord) Calvin Klein model is getting around to all the hotspots in Baton Rouge with his fellow cast mates and having a great time:

Kasey Emas, creative writing senior, said she has met several “Twilight” cast members. Emas said she met Kellan Lutz a couple times around Baton Rouge.

“He is really cool,” Emas said. “The first time I met him I was a stand-in for a movie he was working on with Samuel L. Jackson. I didn’t recognize him as a ‘Twilight’ actor until another stand-in told me after we talked for a good 30 minutes.”

Emas said Lutz and many of the producers were nice the last time she ran into them at The Office, a bar on Third Street.

“We were at The Office, and they were just drinking and having a good time,” Emas said. “When we were hanging around their table, [Lutz] was dancing with my friends and buying everyone shots.”

Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley presented Best Horror Actress at Spike TV’s Scream 2010 Awards. The ceremony took place Saturday night (October 16th) in Los Angeles at The Greek Theater but it won’t air until Tuesday October 19th on Spike.  You have to wait till then to see the hottest trio on TV.

Interestingly enough, the award went to Anna Paquin of that other vampire show, True Blood, which all three cast members have said they are a fan of and Somerhalder auditioned for (and lost out to Ryan Kwanten.) Somerhalder also took part in the LOST tribue/award for Final Farewell with Jorge Garcia, Malcolm David Kelley and Henry Ian Cusick.
