Malese Jow and Kayla Ewell had some things to say to TV Guide about this week’s ghostly episode. Jeremy’s late loves have been causing a lot of chaos recently, but the actresses maintain that neither ghost is trying to be evil.
Upon their arrival as ghosts, Anna warned Jeremy that Vicki was surrounded by darkness. As Jow points out, “If people were gray about it before, ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ made it black and white. Vicki had ulterior motives that weren’t very good.” But Ewell begs to differ. “Vicki has the best intentions, but doesn’t always handle them correctly,” she says. “It comes down to the fact that any of us would do anything to survive and if your life has been taken away and you get another chance at it, then you’re going to pretty much do anything,” she says.
Hear more from Malese Jow in this week’s Vampire Diaries Bite with Robyn Ross.
