'Vampire Diaries' Star Candice Accola Says Caroline Is Manipulating Klaus

Posted 3/14/12 5:04 pm EST by in TV News


by Ryan Downey

To hear Candice Accola tell it, Klaus has saved Caroline Forbes from a life of wine coolers and cheerleading.

Hollywood Crush caught up with "The Vampire Diaries" star and her cast mates at a PaleyFest screening of this week's episode, "1912," in L.A. While Klaus doesn't show-up in the flashback-driven episode (which focuses on the Salvatores' shared past), the recent steamy tension between everybody's favorite bad-boy Original vampire and the former Miss Mystic Falls has filled us fans with plenty of questions about where that may be headed.

"There has been a development between Caroline and Klaus," Candice acknowledged, speaking to us on the red carpet before the premiere. "But I feel it's been more a tool of manipulation on Caroline's part. Everything has been more or less part of a master plan."

New 'Carrie Diaries' Entry: Chloe Bridges Signs On

Posted 3/14/12 1:23 pm EST by in Casting News, Page Turners, TV News


Chloe Bridgesby Elizabeth Lancaster

A teenage Carrie Bradshaw is a bit hard to imagine. Was her quirky-chic style understood in her youth? Did she always have three besties and a boyfriend? When did she discover her passion for writing? These are the questions that will be answered in the upcoming "Sex and the City" spin-off, "The Carrie Diaries," and thanks to the latest bit of casting scoop from Deadline, we're getting even more insight into The CW series and our plucky protagonist.

"Camp Rock 2" star Chloe Bridges is joining the cast as Carrie's high school nemesis, Donna Ladonna, described as popular and confident, though boasting a bit more than meets the eye. In a show revolving around relationships (romantic and otherwise), it will be interesting to see what Donna Ladonna will bring to the show as not a friend, or even a frenemy, but as an enemy.

Lucy Hale Talks Ezria's Future On 'Pretty Little Liars'

Posted 3/13/12 4:05 pm EST by in TV News, Videos


Things got pretty sexy on last night's "Pretty Little Liars." Sure, Ezra might be unemployed thanks to Professor Montgomery’s constant need to meddle parent, but that doesn’t mean Ezra and his lady love Aria are willing to give up on one another (or give up on hooking up with one another as evidenced by that clothes-free make-out session).

And, as Lucy Hale told MTV News recently, she feels that no matter how many obstacles come in between Aria and Ezra, "I feel like it’s never over for them."

Posted 3/13/12 3:15 pm EST by in TV News


William MoseleyBecause no dystopian romantic drama would be complete without a love triangle in the mix, we've been eagerly awaiting the news of who would play forbidden crush object Aspen in the upcoming TV adaptation of Kiera Cass' "The Selection"... and now, the object has landed.

Deadline reports that William Moseley is officially on board for the role of America Singer's (Aimee Teegarden) impoverished blond paramour, making him a nice contrast to the brooding, brunette aristocrat Prince Maxon (played by Ethan Peck).

'Girls' Lena Dunham On 'Interesting, Damaging' Friends With Benefits Relationships

Posted 3/13/12 1:08 pm EST by in TV News


It didn't take much for us to be interested in HBO's new comedy "Girls." First, it's a half-hour comedy that revolves around single women in their 20s living in New York City, which reminds us of another show that HBO did really well that we liked a lot. Second, the trailer is awesome.

With the show's April premiere date quickly approaching, the network sent creator/executive producer/writer/star Lena Dunham to Austin, Texas, to screen a couple episodes in front of the receptive SXSW crowds. MTV News was all over the event, where we spoke with Lena about the inspiration for the show and the very awkward sexual situations her character finds herself in during the first episode.

"Definitely a lot is true to life," Lena said of her source material. "It definitely is a lot of experiences that I, my friends, my writing staff have had, and then taking some of that experience to their more dramatic conclusions. It's always nice when you can give a real-life experience a movie ending and tie up some loose ends you weren't able to in the moment."

Are you ready to step into a nice, warm bloodbath? Tonight's the night, bitchez! "My Super Psycho Sweet 16 Part 3" premieres at 10 p.m. ET on MTV, bringing the final chapter of Skye Rotter's horror story to a close (and probably offing a dozen more of her pals in the bargain).

Are you ready? Set? PSYCHED? Good! ...But if you're not, we've also got this exclusive clip from tonight's gory festivities to whet your appetite for some homestyle killin'.

This spooky cut from the film is seriously creeptastic, as the cast turns to discover their friend Brynn lurking silently in the hallway and covered head to toe in... well, something gross. And the way she's spookily swaying on her feet? That can only mean one thing: narcolepsy.

Oh, or murder. (So, y'know, two things.)

Jillian Rose Reed: We're Obsessing Over The 'My Super Psycho Sweet 16' Star In This Week's Girl Crush

Posted 3/12/12 5:55 pm EST by in Girl Crush, TV News, Videos


Jillian Rose Reed fast-talked her way into our hearts as Jenna's feisty best friend, Tamara, on MTV's "Awkward," but tomorrow night she's swapping one BFF for another, as she tackles the role of Sienna in "My Super Psycho Sweet 16 Part 3." Sienna is Skye's new roommate, and she has no clue about the survivor's dark past. So in honor of Jillian's MTV twofer, we're awarding her this week's Girl Crush title.

An achievement which, it turns out, fulfilled one of Jillian's life goals. "You don't understand. Like, ever since I was little, I've dreamed about being MTV's crush, and now I've made it," she enthused. "I'm done now. I don't have to do anything more for the rest of my career. I've hit my peak."

'Vampire Diaries' Star Ian Somerhalder Teases Spicy Sage

Posted 3/12/12 5:21 pm EST by in Eye Candy, Hot Stuff, TV News, Videos


Flashback fans, rejoice! When "The Vampire Diaries" returns Thursday night after an all-too-long hiatus, we'll get a peek at what some of our favorite Mystic Falls immortals were doing a century ago, in the semi-"Downton Abbey"-inspired episode "1912."

When Hollywood Crush caught up with star Ian Somerhalder over the weekend during PaleyFest, we just had to ask what to expect from the episode, which introduces us to the pivotal character Sage, played by "Smallville" actress Cassidy Freeman.

"Here's the cool thing: As much as Stefan had Lexi, Damon had this woman Sage, and she was sort of this hot temptress, sultress, bad-ass chick," Ian explained. "She revived him and showed him the way to live and enjoy yourself—realize life is short even for a vampire. Enjoy it. Literally, carpe diem—not to sound trite. I think that was a huge turning point for Damon, and no one's seen it."

'Pretty Little Liars' Star Tyler Blackburn Talks Caleb's Return, Shanking Skills

Posted 3/12/12 2:34 pm EST by in TV News


Tyler BlackburnIf we were to voice one complaint about ABC Family's soapy hit "Pretty Little Liars," it'd be that Rosewood's resident hunks just can't seem to stay in town. I mean, Caleb Rivers goes on more cross-country treks than a JetBlue flight attendant. (We'd date him purely for the frequent flier miles.) But, thankfully, the cutie's returning for season two's penultimate episode airing tonight—and just in time to get Hanna out of hot water.

"Well, once again, Caleb is helping his lady love," Tyler told Hollywood Crush in anticipation of "If These Dolls Could Talk." "He kind of steps up to the plate and helps her to sort of figure out some mysteries revolving around A. And he's kind of put in a really uncomfortable situation. One he doesn't want to do, but he's doing it for Hanna. To fans, it's both funny and also gut-wrenching. We'll just leave it there."

Oh, Tyler. That's nearly as ominous as one of A's trademark texts! Will Caleb's mysterious plan incite more retaliation from A? (You'll recall a few episodes back, he was set up to take the fall for hacking school records.)
