Nina’s glad she doesn’t do nude scenes on Vampire Diaries

Nina Dobrev has admitted that she is relieved she does not have to star in nude scenes in The Vampire Diaries.

The actress, who plays Elena, explained that she would feel uncomfortable if she appeared in the more explicit series True Blood.

According to The Mirror, Dobrev said: “I’m very content with not being nude on national television. I enjoy True Blood myself and I watch the show, but I’m happy that bra and underwear is as stripped down as I can get for the show.”

Dobrev also dismissed the idea of a competition between The Vampire Diaries, True Blood and Twilight.

“I don’t think that we’re necessarily competitors,” she explained. “We’re all kind of in the same genre – there are vampires within all the series – but they are all very different. It’s like apples and oranges. True Blood is racier and a little bit older, Twilight is on the big screen, whereas we are in that in-between zone. We’re all very supportive of each other.”

I think it’s cool that so many people are excited about dark fantasy and inspired to pick up books within the genre. But hey, you like peanut butter and jelly and I like grilled cheese, you know? Still, if there’s any show that has my attention these days, it’s The Vampire Diaries. The reason?

A few weeks back, as she was winding up her work on The Vampire Diaries‘ first season, I had the opportunity to speak with Dobrev about her sudden success, about the experience of playing two distinct characters on one show, and about where she’d like to see Elena go in the second season. Hit the jump for our full conversation.
