Damon Salvatore has made Entertainment Weekly’s Best Bitches list, which will be featured in the magazine’s latest issue (available from tomorrow). There’s an amusing article on the subject up on their PopWatch blog in which we learn all about Ian Somerhalder’s reaction to fans asking him to bite them, and why he has to politely turn them down.
“One of them is legality. Another may be the fact that they’re extremely young and their 6′4″ father’s standing there with a baseball bat. Or that they’re married. Or that my lovely and wonderful girlfriend is standing next to me going ‘Uh-uh, it ain’t gonna happen.’”
Executive producer Kevin Williamson was recently interviewed by Jim Halterman. The interview covers what attracted Kevin to the Vampire Diaries project, the books, the story, flashbacks, gay characters (there’s apparently a storyline with Caroline’s dad coming up), and, of course, that really ugly cast they have working for them. ;)
JH: The back-story element with Damon, Stefan and Katherine is so rich. Is that something we’re going to see more of this season?
KW: I think we’ll see more of that periodically. We’re doing another flashback episode right now – episode 12 – and we’re actually going to go back in and show a little bit more and open it up a little bit. I think it’s important to do it if it’s going to propel our story forward.
Finally, there are CW Connect interviews with Sara Canning and Steven R. McQueen up on the CW website. Steven talks about Jeremy, Vicki, and that he’s sorry he’s not Margaret (though we don’t think he really needs to worry, a lot of fans are really liking Jeremy); Sara talks about Jenna as a person, the challenges she faces, and shooting in Atlanta. We’ll embed the videos for everyone to see when they’re uploaded to YouTube.
