Look, I have a lot of love for Nina Dobrev. Yes, because she’s Canadian but also because she’s fiercely Canadian, meaning she hasn’t forgotten, like so many of them do. Etalk has been with Nina from the beginning of her career. Now she’s the star of a big hit U.S. TV show and when we see her at events, she still always stops for us, and not only that, but remembers the names of all our camera guys and all our producers. She is the best. Avril Lavigne for example on the other hand - not the best.

So now you know when I have to say I don’t like what Nina is wearing it hurts a lot. Duana actually enjoys this dress and I tried very hard to, but in the end couldn’t get there. Just think she could do so much better. The real problem though is the shoes. I like to call this knock off nude even though this is probably super designer that shade is like when high street shops try to imitate luxury brands. Really cheap looking.

But then here’s how Nina bounces back: check her out with boyfriend Ian Somerhalder rushing through LAX right after receiving her People’s Choice Award, still wearing her dress having had no time to change.  That’s Nina. She just rolls with it, right back to work, totally not precious about being a glamorous celebrity with special needs and requests.
