We posted previously about Michael Trevino’s photoshoot for Bello Mag, and now we have a sneak peek at the cover thanks to Michael’s publicist. The pics Michael posted last week don’t do this cover justice – Clark Kent, eat your heart out. ;)
The lovely Candice Accola has been confirmed for UK Vampire Diaries convention Insurgence (Birmingham, 3rd to 5th June 2011), and will be joining Zach Roerig, Michael Trevino, David Anders and Lauren Cohan. We’ll keep informing you as new guests are announced. If you’re interested in going, head on over to the Insurgence website for more information and pricing.

Damon fans will be delighted that Ian Somerhalder has been confirmed for EyeCon at the end of March, on Sunday 27th. He’ll be appearing on behalf of the Ian Somerhalder Foundation, which will be hosting some games, contests and fundraisers over the weekend. Because he’s appearing for the Foundation rather than as an official EyeCon guest, the free autograph that comes with Platinum tickets doesn’t apply, but there will be paid autograph and photo ops available. All proceeds from these will be going to the ISF, so it’s for a good cause.
MORE INFORMATION ON THE EYECON WEBSITE
Michael Trevino has also been confirmed for the UK’s Insurgence convention in Birmingham on the 3rd – 5th June 2011. He’ll be joined by David Anders and Lauren Cohan, with more guests to be announced later on.

The news has been flying all over Twitter this morning and we can confirm that Michael Trevino has had to pull out of this weekend’s Insurgence: Bloodlines convention in the U.K. due to last-minute work commitments.
We’re seeing reports from Insurgence attendees on Twitter that Sterling Sulieman (Harper) has joined the guest line-up, which includes Kelly Hu (Pearl), Benjamin Ayres (Mr. Tanner), and Michael Rosenbaum from Smallville.
Now we know attendees are disappointed, but please understand that these are circumstances beyond anyone’s control. The guest line-up of any convention is dependent on work schedules. Please cut the organizers of Insurgence some slack as they are trying their hardest to make the best of an unfortunate situation.

Bad news, Vampire Diaries fans: Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder have had to withdraw from UK convention, Insurgence: Bloodlines due to work commitments. However, Michael Trevino is still scheduled to appear, and Kelly Hu (Pearl) and Benjamin Ayres (Mr. Tanner) have stepped in and will also be attending.
From their website:
Hello we know this is going to be disappointing news for everyone including ourselves but we are very sorry to announce that both Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder have had to withdraw from the upcoming convention. Their manager informed us on Friday there was a possibility that both actors would have to pull out as the Studio requires them to work the weekend we have our convention, while they had agreed to come it was always subject to work commitments, normally we would have known a good few weeks ago but this has been very short notice for us and as most of the major cast members have also been recalled for filming we are very grateful that Michael Trevino has got the all clear to appear this coming weekend. Their manager has tried all weekend to persuade the Studio to allow the guys to come even for one day but has been unsuccessful.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, folks, but it looks like Paul Wesley has had to cancel his previously scheduled appearance at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, which happens this weekend. If you’re still heading to the Con, Rob Pralgo (the late Mayor Lockwood) will be in attendance, and it looks like Vampire Diaries will have a few panels throughout the weekend (thanks, @mrsoshimbo). You can download an event program from the official Dragon*Con website.
We know this made a lot of Bloodlines: Insurgence ticket holders on Twitter nervous this morning, but as far as we know and can tell, the Sept. 10-12 con in London is still a go for Paul, Ian Somerhalder, and Michael Trevino. The minute we hear anything different, we will absolutely let you know.

The ratings for “Bloodlines” are in, with the episode being watched by 3.7 million viewers. From TV By the Numbers:
The return after an extremely long hiatus wasn’t kind to Vampire Diaries as its 1.6 for adults 18-49 may have tied a series low (checking now) in that demo. Supernatural fared better, its 1.3 adults 18-49 rating was slightly above its season average for new episodes. In the CW target demo, Vampire Diaries scored a 2.5 rating for women 18-34, tied for second in the timeslot.
And on the subject of “Bloodlines”, the episode is now available to download from Amazon if you’re in the USA. Fans in the UK can also download it from iTunes.
We’ve got a title for episode 15 of the Vampire Diaries, which will be called “A Few Good Men”. I don’t know about you, but it puts the strangest image in my head of Damon and Tom Cruise’s Lestat going head to head in a Mystic Falls court room.
There are some more spoilers zinging around about what we can expect for the second half of the season. Ausiello has a little spoiler about who Damon is going to hook up with next, while E!’s Kristin has some snippets from Julie Plec, Ian Somerhalder, Paul Wesley and Nina Dobrev on subjects such as the love triangle, Damon’s phenomenal kissing ability and what’s in store for Elena (aside from potentially being knocked out with a kiss from Damon).
The Hot Topic cast tour is under way in Atlanta, and the cast are currently signing autographs. While fans weren’t allowed to take cameras in, both Nina Dobrev and Michael Trevino tweeted some pictures for the fans. Nina’s photo shows her fellow cast mates to be a nice, normal bunch, while Michael seems to inspire them to display a little more insanity. ;) The Q&A session will be taking place shortly.
Finally, while Ella was visiting the set yesterday, Nina informed her that she’s NOT going to be at the Insurgence: Bloodlines convention in the UK in March. We’ve contacted Rogue Events to find out what’s going on there, and will let you know if we hear anything.

Nina Dobrev has been confirmed as the first member of the Vampire Diaries team to be attending the Insurgence: Bloodlines convention in the UK. The con takes place on the 19-21 March and is for the Vampire Diaries along with two more of the CW’s shows, Supernatural and Smallville. No news yet on other members of the cast and crew attending, but we’ll post as soon as we hear anything.
Most of us had already worked out that this was a given due to threads in the story that need tying up, but we’ve got official information now. Fancast have heard from Julie Plec that Bianca Lawson will be returning as Emily Bennett in flashbacks during episode 13, “Children of the Damned”. The episode in question will be airing on February 4.
Thanks to Max for getting in touch to update us on the Vampire Diaries airing in Germany. We’ve previously mentioned that the series premieres in Germany on January 20 on the ProSieben channel, but we’ve been told that Austria and Switzerland also get the ProSieben channel and will be getting the series at the same time as Germany. As we understand it, the series has been dubbed into German, and if you’re curious about what Elena, Stefan and Damon sound like, you can watch a trailer for it below.
And finally, a book curiosity. We have no idea what it’s about, but it certainly piqued our interest. @Guinevere09 was poking around on the Harper Teen website and found… ‘Stefan’s Diaries‘. Given that Stefan doesn’t keep diaries in the books (though you never know, he might have one hidden in his sock drawer), we’re wondering if this is possibly some kind of TV series tie-in. Whatever it’s about, it’s due for release at the end of June and we’ll certainly be keeping an eye on it.
