Zap2it On the Scene

'The Vampire Diaries': Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, Kat Graham, and more share behind the scenes fun

tvd-paul-bts-vid.jpgWith a cast as fun as "The Vampire Diaries" regulars are, there's no end to the silly behind-the-scenes stories. We were on set with Zap2it's good friend Catalina Walsh as she got the backstage scoop from all your favorite stars.

Paul Wesley, who was happy to do interviews despite having to come to work on crutches due to a badly sprained ankle, laughs, "It'll be interesting to see a Season 2 gag reel. On this set, we have fun, but we also take it really seriously, too. It's been so intense and we want to make it good so I can't think of any moments off the top of my head that are hilarious. We're always playing pranks on each other. That's incessant."

Sara Canning, whose character Jenna met the wrong end of a knife this season, dished on working with special effects blood. "When I shot my scene where Jenna stabs herself, we only did two takes, and the first one he rigged up the tube inside my dress so that the blood would start spurting out of my stomach, and it was like a lake of blood," she laughs. "There's a science to it. Someone was lying behind the counter using a hand pump to pump the blood."

Kat Graham spilled some secrets about Steven R. McQueen's suave romantic moves during a key scene between Bonnie and Jeremy, too.

"When Jeremy almost kisses me," she says, "that wasn't in the script. He wasn't supposed to do that! That was a funny moment. I was kind of like, oh, okay! This is good. This will work."

For more from McQueen and dish from everyone's favorite bad boy, Ian Somerhalder, check out the video below.

Poor Paul! I hope he feels better and heals fast. I can't wait to see the gag reel for season 2.

As for Boremy, just ugh. That was not suave, but just painfully awkward. Bonnie and Jeremy are a mismatch. They have forced tension but they don't have any real chemistry and the romance just feels ill-suited for their
personalities. Bonnie needs a more mature and complex guy. An older guy. I would NEVER have paired those two romantically. It it is awful to watch, they have such off vibes about them. Boremy was a failure, Forwood was a good choice.

Couldn't have said it better myself Velma, Beremy is the worst, weirdest most forced and rushed couple I've seen on TV! It's disgusts me too think it might happen and the fact that Jeremy had just experienced the death of two women he fell in love with! It would be a bad move if JP and KW make these two endgame.

WTF is up with Steven don't get me wrong he's great but why would he do that, unless the writers told him too, I have no idea!
