Ian Somerhalder spills on Damon’s compelling new ‘girlfriend’

“The Vampire Diaries” star Ian Somerhalder sent fans all a-Twitter when he recently tweeted a photo of himself, co-star Matt Davis, and upcoming guest star Dawn Olivieri with the caption, “Damon, Damon’s new girlfriend, and a very excited Alaric in the Salvatore House.”

Legions of fans either rejoiced or panicked at the idea of Damon having a girlfriend, so when we caught up with Somerhalder at a recent Warner Bros. photo shoot in L.A., we made sure to get all the scoop on the newest woman in Damon’s life.

Relaxing in his dressing room after a long day of photo shoots and interviews, Somerhalder was happy to spill the details on the character – hotshot reporter Andie Star. Yes, that’s really her name. Andie Star.

“I love saying her name!” Somerhalder says. “Damon’s kind of proud of it. There’s a line where Alaric comes to the Salvatore house, and Andie’s sort of leaving after the walk of shame, and she’s obviously got a little scarf around her neck because Damon’s been munching on her. Alaric is sort of blown away, and Damon goes, ‘Andie Star, Action News.'”

You heard right. There’s a reason for the scarf in that photo he tweeted. If it reminds you of the scarf Caroline (Candice Accola) wore to cheer practice in Season 1, it’s for good reason. Damon’s relationship with Andie will echo his relationship with Caroline, in that really, he’s compelling her through the whole thing — and using her as a blood source.  Read the rest at Zap2it
