‘Vampire Diaries' Cast: Where Are They Now? Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev and More
The Vampire Diaries' 2009 premiere introduced fans to one of the most memorable vampire-themed series to date. The CW show, which ran for eight seasons until 2017, took place in the fictional town of Mystic Falls, Virginia, home to mythical creatures and humans alike. In addition to tales of people becoming vampires, or finding out they have powers — which was the case with Bonnie Bennett (Kat Graham) — the series brought to life one of the most memorable TV love triangles. After teenager Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) fell for vampire Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley) and later his bad boy brother, Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder), fans were forced to decide which of the two heartthrobs they'd want to romance. Although Elena did choose one over the other by season 8, many of the show's fanbase are divided between Team Stefan and Team Damon. Offscreen, the cast — which also included Candice Accola, Michael Trevino, Joseph Morgan and many more — formed a lifelong bond, which has remained strong partially due to a group text. Scroll down to see what TVD cast has been up to since it premiered.

Kat Graham Launches Groundbreaking AI App Leveraging Google Cloud
ATLANTA, GEORGIA / / May 14, 2025 / Acclaimed actress, music artist, and humanitarian Kat Graham is diving into the world of artificial intelligence with the launch of her new app, KatAI. A multilingual leader recognized in TIME100's Next Generation, Graham has collaborated with Cloname to create an innovative platform using Google's Gemini 2.0 flash model and Google Chirp Text to Speech where fans can engage with KatAI by asking questions and receiving responses in Graham's own voice. What sets this app apart is its ability to not only communicate in Graham's likeness, but also to provide exclusive insights about her upcoming appearances and personal details that remain private from the public eye. Fans will have the unique opportunity to connect with the star through exclusive meet-and-greets, merchandise, giveaways, and the unveiling of new music and projects that will not be available elsewhere. "My relationship with AI has never really fit inside the box." shared Graham. "I know a lot of artists are hesitant - and I get it. But for me, innovation has always been part of the story. Whether it was releasing Toro Gato as the first exclusive NFT album or pushing boundaries in music and tech, I've often had to walk that path alone. I remember watching the music industry scramble during the rise of Napster and streaming. I kept wondering why the major labels didn't take the reins - why they didn't build their own platforms, their own libraries, the way Apple, Amazon, and Disney eventually did to compete with Netflix. Fear and resistance to change cost the industry so much. I might be an outlier, but I've never been afraid of evolution. I don't believe that tech will ever fully replace what makes us human. No algorithm can replicate the feeling of standing on a stage and connecting soul-to-soul with an audience. Art is emotional. It's messy. It's human. At the same time, I've always dreamed of being able to share my message - my love for humanity, my advocacy for refugees, my fight for justice-in more places than I could physically be. Not just through posts, but through something more meaningful. I've looked up to mentors like Deepak Chopra, who embraced the future with open arms when he created Digital Deepak. I don't believe AI is here to destroy us. I believe it can amplify what already lives inside of us - if we guide it with intention. So today, I'm trusting this technology. And I'm trusting you with a version of me that's built from my lived experience - from the heartbreaks, the sets, the stages, the missions, the prayers. My AI isn't perfect. Neither am I. But together, maybe we can redefine what it means to be an artist in this new era." she concluded.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 23, 2025-- Last night, BORROWED SPOTLIGHT, a powerful new portrait series book and exhibition, debuted at Detour Gallery in NYC. The event brought together Holocaust survivors and some of today's most recognizable figures including Kat Graham, Gregg Sulkin, Remi Bader, and RHONJ stars Margaret Josephs, Melissa Gorga, and Lexi Barbuto to honor survivor stories and ensure their testimonies reach the next generation. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: Row 1 (L to R): Kat Graham, Gregg Sulkin; Row 2 (L to R): Remi Bader, Margaret Josephs, Melissa Gorga, Lexi Barbuto. (Photos by Sabrina Steck) Shot by highly-acclaimed fashion photographer Bryce Thompson, the exhibition features powerful large-scale portraits and survivor testimonies designed to spark reflection and discussion. Coffee table books are also available for purchase and the exhibit will be open to the public on the following dates and times: Guests in attendance experienced the moving displays before gathering for remarks from producer and journalist Daniella Greenbaum, photographer Bryce Thompson, and actress Kat Graham, who spoke about the project's impact. Other VIP attendees included: Ellie Zeiler, Eitan Bernath, Daniela Braga, Daphne Groeneveld, David Carmi, Moti Ankari, Arielle Nir, Justin Livingston, Anthony Urbano, Kate Li, Levi Lomey, Jonathan Cohen, Chaz Langley, Igee Okafor, Matthew Gasda, Freya Walton, Chané Husselmann, and Arielle Schwartz, among others.

At a time when Holocaust knowledge is rapidly diminishing – with 20% of people worldwide having never heard of the Holocaust, less than half recognizing its historical accuracy, and over 60% not knowing that six million Jews were murdered – BORROWED SPOTLIGHT aims to serve as both an educational tool and a call to action. About Borrowed Spotlight BORROWED SPOTLIGHT is a powerful portrait series and exhibition created to combat rising antisemitism and preserve Holocaust history. Captured by renowned photographer Bryce Thompson, the project pairs Holocaust survivors with today's most recognizable figures – including Cindy Crawford, Jennifer Garner, Billy Porter, David Schwimmer, and many more – using their public platforms to amplify the survivors' stories. Debuting at Detour Gallery in New York City ahead of Yom HaShoah, the exhibition will feature large-scale portraits and survivor testimonies aimed at educating the public and inspiring reflection. The project, which will also be commemorated in a coffee table book, seeks to preserve the memory of the Holocaust, while educating and inspiring action against hate.
