Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder attend The Vampire Diaries Hot Topic tour at Hot Topic on February 13, 2010 in Canoga Park, California.
The 21-year Canadian actress even showed off a handmade bracelet made by one of her fans! Nina also chatted with the LA Times about her adventures moving from Degrassi to The Vampire Diaries.
Nina mentioned, “It was hard in the sense that a lot of my friends are on the show, but we still keep in touch. The Degrassi producers were very supportive. They sent me flowers when I got The Vampire Diaries, and then as soon as it premiered and got the great numbers that it did, I got another large bouquet of flowers from them. I went back and I did two episodes for Season 9, so that my character could be written out. I don’t know! Right now the schedule here is so overwhelming, and I can’t see how I could have time to do anything else, but you never know. I would do it. We’ll see!”
Monday’s best bets for celeb spotting. Door crash at your own risk.
TIFF’s sparkliest bash, at least by venue choice, is the Mother and Child pre-screening cocktailer at the Yonge and Bloor Swarovski gallery store. Naomi Watts, Jimmy Smits and Kerry Washington will all walk the red carpet.
The last night of ET Canada’s parking garage party series serves up double the schmooze with Julie Christie and Brit thriller Glorious 39 followed by Playback magazine’s Hall of Fame fete celebrating David Cronenberg, Denys Arcand, Viggo Mortensen and Nina Dobrev.

PREMISE: It’s Supernatural meets Twilight meets Dawson’s Creek. Was totally prepared for this thing to suck. Much to my surprise, it didn’t!
9:18 am/PST: When will the vampire fad go away? “Hopefully not before Sept. 10,” cracks exec producer Julie Plec, referring to the show’s premiere date.
9:23 am: I’m still not clear on why Ian Somerhalder isn’t here.
9:24 am: Kevin Williamson insists Diaries is “not just a high school show. It’s a small town show. Once you get past the vampire premise, we get to telling the story about this town.”
