Nina Gilbert In The Vampire Diaries

Decent Essays
1. While many young actresses chase the Hollywood dream, it was the other way around for Nina Dobrev after being discovered by an agent while studying at the Armstrong Acting Studio in Toronto. It's totally understandable. Who can ignore a face like this?

2. For the role of Elena Gilbert in The Vampire Diaries, our girl here Nina stood out among the rest, beating the likes of Jessica Simpson's baby sis Ashlee Simpson and Alexandra Chando.

3. The cute-faced star is also multi-lingual. She speaks English, French, and Bulgarian.

4. She competed in rhythmic gymnastics as a child. Stop it, Nina. You can do a lot already... While I'm here typing these words (sobs).

5. She was good friends with Twilight star Nikki Reed, well, until Reed dated
