Interview with Vampire's Ian Somerhalder

ATLANTA, Ga (WWHO) - CW Columbus Star Annie visited the set of "The Vampire Diaries" in January to interview the show's hottest stars.

I was a little nervous to meet Ian Somerhalder because I thought that he would be one of those actors who hates being interviewed. It didn’t help that right before I got to talk with him, he had to sit through an extensive thirty minute interview for the season one DVD release.

However, he could not have been any more different. He was friendly, funny and very interesting. The minute that he walked into the room I could not stop starring into his eyes. I think the casting director made a perfect choice casting him as evil brother Damon Salvatore. I asked him in the interview which of Damon’s powers he would want to have and with those eyes, I am convinced that he already has the ability to control people!

Talking with Somerhalder, I immediately could tell how passionate he was about his job. He loves what he does and puts everything he has into it. He is so charming, and although it was edited out of the interview, I managed to tell him that a couple times. I am very anxious to see what else he will bring to the character of Damon Salvatore. There is much more excitement to come!
