Candice Accola has a very special reason to be excited right about now. The countdown to The Vampire Diaries Season 7 opener, which airs on Thursday, October 8 at 8/7c? Not quite. The fact that the actress is expecting her first child!!!! The 28-year-old beauty revealed the major life news by sharing a photo of her baby bump on Instagram. The picture also features her husband Joe King, her two step-children and a homemade t-shirt that says “Baby” surrounded by a heart right over her stomach. “Sometimes a Saturday is best spent painting t-shirts and taking an awesome family photo,” Accola wrote as a caption to the heartwarming image, adding: “Happy Monday everybody! #ThatAintNoBurritoinMyBelly Thank you to our friend @softspiritstrong for coming over and snapping this sweet pic.” King is a member of The Fray and, as you can see here, he donned a matching white T-shirt that had “SUPERDAD” written on it. This will be the couple’s first child together. View Slideshow: 19 Fun Celebrity Baby Announcements
Canadian Nina Dobrev…from Vampire Diaries…who cares… Did Shape Magazine…in fitness gear…who cares…. I could probably outline tens of thousands of more important things than some second string actress who probably has a shitty attitude..because that’s what actors have…in some second rate magazine…all for the sake of monetizing their bullshit content no one actually needs but it makes for a nice distraction for life…and really not even that nice of a distraction from life…because I can assume only her friends and family are like “cool she’s in a magazine”…or maybe her PR team she was about to fire because no one cares about Nina Dobrev…pretending this is a big deal because they like their 5,000 dollar a month retainer she pays them….but it’s SELF magazine, this is insignificant…yet for some reason…I am posting it.. I guess what it comes down to is…what’s wrong with me….more on this in the 30,000 or more blog posts I’ve written the last 11 years… The post Nina Dobrev is Athletic for SELF of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepfather .
Is Thursday night television about to deliver another heartbreaking goodbye? A couple weeks ago, it was McDreamy on Grey’s Anatomy . This week, we don’t know how, but we do know that Nina Dobrev will exit The Vampire Diaries as Elena Gilbert. And now, courtesy of ABC, we have a sneak peek at Scandal Season 4 Episode 22 – and it doesn’t offer up much up regarding the future of Olivia and Fitz. Scandal Season Finale Clip – Saying Goodbye The scene depicts these star-crossed lovers on the phone, Liv delivering a note of congratulations to the President for passing his latest bill, wishing him luck on Mellie’s election… and then uttering the two words no Scandal viewer wants to hear: Goodbye, Fitz. No forever we can only hope. Nay, pray! The bulk of the Scandal season finale (titled “You Can’t Take Command”) will focus on Olivia and the Gladiators doing whatever it takes to bring down the former’s father. Will Rowan Pope finally see his time come? There’s a farewell we would not mind saying. Not one bit. Not at all. View Slideshow: Scandal Cast Through the Years
For months now, Kim Kardashian has struggled to get pregnant and shared every freakin’ detail of the process with anyone who will listen. We’ve heard about how Kim and Kanye have sex 500 times a day . We’ve watched her announce the arrival of her period while at brunch. And, of course, we’ve learned more about Kim’s uterus than we know about any organ in our own bodies … but is the big moment here at last? Now, after all that drama and all those reality show ratings it looks like we might possibly, maybe have a happy ending, as a source with zero credibility claims that Kim is 12 weeks pregnant with a baby boy. “She’s pregnant,” an anonymous friend of Kim’s tells the rarely-reliable OK! magazine. “I’ve heard that she’s passed the 12-week point, but that she and Kanye aren’t going to confirm it for at least a few more weeks.” Of course, if this “insider” is real, he or she is soon to meet with an “accident” at the hands of Kris Jenner’s goon squad, so may as well go all the way and reveal the gender, right? “To say that he’s happy that she’s carrying a boy is an understatement,” the source claimed, presumably while clutching a boarding pass with one trembling hand and frantically chain-smoking with the other. “One of each is perfect for them.” The doomed insider adds that Kim underwent $230,000 in IVF treatments and is currently “working out like a demon,” as her primary concern is not looking “like a beached whale” during her pregnancy. Finally, a part of this report we believe! View Slideshow: 40 Totally Adorable North West Photos
Valeria Lukyanova is back. And, she believes, better than ever. The woman known as Human Barbie seemingly wants to go by a different moniker now, as she was attacked in October outside of her home and has therefore made it her mission to get into crazy good shape. According to a handful of new Facebook photos and captions, in fact, she now considers herself to be “Amazon Woman.” “I no longer like my body. It needs some muscle,” Lukyanova wrote on social media along with the above pictures. The scary-looking model’s Instagram page is filled with snapshots of her at the gym, while her latest Facebook gallery features Lukyanova dressed in a denim crop top and shorts so small… you can barely tell they exist. “The spring is late this year, but it has finally come,” she added. “It has inspired me to do a photo shoot with a beautiful and all natural background. Oh, how I love spring!” Not everyone loves Lukyanova, however. Many have taken a look at these Human Barbie photos and determined that the 27-year old has had far too much work done. But Lukyanova doesn’t comprehend the criticism. “Everyone wants a slim figure,” she told GQ last year. “Everyone gets breasts done. Everyone fixes up their face if it’s not ideal, you know? Everyone strives for the golden mean. It’s global now.” Sure, we guess. Many celebrities have undergone plastic surgery , that’s for sure. Valeria Lukyanova is not the first, nor will she be the last. But she is the most extreme. Do you think she takes it too far?

It’s a good thing Nina Dobrev is all good with Ian Somerhalder having married Nikki Reed. Because the newlyweds haven’t exactly been shy about sharing their love. While an earlier report alleged Somerhalder and Reed are having non-step sex while abroad (first in Mexico, then in Brazil), the stars appear to have come up for air. But that doesn’t mean they’ve left each other’s side, as evidenced by a PDA-laden picture just posted online by Somerhalder: The 36-year-old Vampire Diaries actor took to Instagram today to share a sexy shirtless beach shot from his recent travels to South America. “Feet back on US soil aka… New York City,” he wrote as a caption, adding: “Dreaming of the Costa Rica rainforest. Thank you to this beautiful country: it’s land and its people. Thank you to this beautiful woman who makes every day a dream come true. Pura Vida.” AWWW! That’s Ian Somerhalder for you: he doesn’t just look gorgeous. He writes gorgeous prose. Reed and Somerhalder got married on Sunday, April 26 during a ceremony in Santa Monica, much to the surprise of most fans, seeing as the twosome only just got engaged four months ago. Earlier on in their honeymoon, Reed also shared a sweet photo , that time of the pair in Tulum. “Salty…sandy…sticky…sunburned. The best. I love this human. My human,” she wrote of her husband. Seriously, couldn’t you just eat these two adorable celebrities up with a spoon??? View Slideshow: Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed Photos: A Whirlwind Romance
There weren’t really any twists, turns or stunning deaths on The Originals Season 2 Episode 22 . This was the season finale of one of TV’s most suspenseful, consistently-shocking shows… and yet it didn’t even end on a cliffhanger. And yet we loved it! Watch The Originals Season 2 Episode 22 Online “Ashes to Ashes” was a strong, confident outing, one with a solid plot and strong character development that concluded one chapter of The Mikaelson family saga and left the door open for the next one. In short, Klaus’ plan worked, as he and his brothers and sisters brought Esther back to life because she was the witch who truly broke Dahlia’s heart. It was her blood they needed to take their aunt down once and for all. After a confrontation in which Dahlia broke up the white oak stake into actual ashes and nearly killed Elijah, Rebekah and Klaus, Esther stepped in, distracted her sister and took one for the team: Klaus ended up stabbing both his mother and his aunt through the chest with a special dagger. Threat ended. So, where does this leave us heading into The Originals Season 3? View Slideshow: The Originals Cast Before They Were Stars As you’ll note when you watch The Originals online , Klaus is now on permanent daddy duty. He says he’s giving up control of New Orleans to Marcel in order to focus on raising Hope. DAVINA , meanwhile, is regent of the nine covens and she is understandably angry at the Mikaelsons for tricking her into resurrecting Esther instead of Kol. ELIJAH swore to never fight alongside Klaus again due to his actions against Gia and Hayley, but then Hayley (on a full moon, in human form) told Elijah he has to be there for her daughter. REBEKAH was given the choice by Freya of selecting her witch body or her vampire body. We last saw her saying goodbye to Marcel in witch form, carrying her vampire self in a coffin in case she changes her mind. So Klaus is pretty much by himself, with enemies new and old lined up against him. He was rocking Hope to sleep when the finale faded to black. But will Season 3 prove to be his nightmare?
The Vampire Diaries isn’t exactly heading into its Season 6 finale with a great deal of momentum. Does anyone out there really care whether or not Damon takes The Cure? It feels like a contrived storyline because we know Nina Dobrev is leaving , so making her human (as actually did take place on The Vampire Diaries Season 6 Episode 20 ) was the easiest way for the show to go about it Now Elena can either die (which would be awesome, giving Damon quite the guilt complex heading into Season 7) or simply leave Mystic Falls to start a new life elsewhere (by far the most likely scenario). Watch The Vampire Diaries Season 6 Episode 20 Online But Damon? Come on. We know he won’t take The Cure and hearing him constantly express his love for Elena has grown very old. Moreover, this story has been done before. The series itself even acknowledged that fact via flashback tonight. So, no, we can’t say that Damon suffering through some kind of existential crisis is edge-of-your-seat, season-ending suspense type of stuff. Lily Salvatore has been a solid addition, however. Her disdain for Stefan is fascinating to watch, as it both tugs at our heartstrings (poor Stefan) and also makes us scared for what sort of wrath she and her Heretic friends have in store. We all know Kai will somehow lead them out of 1903 (after they finish his delicious breakfast, that is). As for Alaric and Jo, Matt was right even before the latter learned she was having twins who would become the target of his her coven: they have no reason to stick around and every reason to leave. Go someplace far away, Alaric, Protect your family. We’ll see the marriage actually take place on The Vampire Diaries Season 6 Episode 21 (teased below), though whether these two will live happily ever after is anyone’s guess. View Slideshow: 17 Sexy Small Screen Superheroes So, you tell us, TVD fans: do you care about The Cure storyline? Are you excited for Kai’s return? And should Season 7 be it for this show?

Alaric Saltzman is about to say “I Do.” Prior to exchanging vows with his pregnant fiancee, however, our favorite college professor will have a sack thrown over his head and abducted. By whom? We think we have an idea, but check out the following sneak peek from The Vampire Diaries Season 6 Episode 20 and see if you can guess: The Vampire Diaries Clip – Oh, No, Alaric! Considering the official CW synopsis details Alaric and Jo enjoying their respective bachelor and bachelorette parties, we’re calling BS on this clip. We say it’s Damon who kidnaps his friend away for a night of boys and bourbon. Elsewhere on this installment of The Vampire Diaries Season 6 : Elena will turn to Bonnie for advice on the whole should-I-take-The-Cure-and-become-human thing. Enzo will realize that Lily is on a serious downward spiral and ask Stefan to step in. Matt will take out some frustrations on Tyler. Check out the above clip and then watch The Vampire Diaries online in case you need to catch up prior to this episode. View Slideshow: 24 Shocking TV Deaths
We’re not sure what Nina Dobrev’s supporters are going to make of this!, but… News of the actress’ departure from The Vampire Diaries after the end of the current season hit the Web yesterday, causing an outpouring of sadness from the show’s fans. However, it seems not everyone is crying over Dobrev’s announcement . According to Hollywood Life, a source revealed that Reed is relieved Dobrev will be leaving the series : “One person who isn’t sad to see Nina leave is Nikki. She has definitely been persona non grata on the set and it made things uncomfortable with her and Ian.” “It’s a relief that Nikki can now visit her fiance on set and not worry about any awkwardness with his ex and her friends.” Dobrev and Somerhalder broke up after three years of dating, but their onscreen counterparts still remain an item. Reed and Somerhalder got together shortly after and got engaged after only six months of dating. It’s unclear if tension on set may have caused Dobrev to leave. The actress explained on her Instagram: “I always knew I wanted Elena’s story to be a six season adventure, and within those six years I got the journey of a lifetime.” “There’s more to come before we wrap this up, and I promise you’ll get to hear all about my experiences over the next month as we approach the season finale… … But until then I invite you to hop on the roller coaster ride that is Elena Gilbert’s life and join me as I celebrate her and prepare to say goodbye to her – and to my work family – as I move on to the next chapter of my life.” Reed hasn’t exactly been welcomed on TVD set , or by the fans since many of them were heartbroken when Dobrev and Somerhalder split. Although, you can’t exactly blame a girl for being relieved her fiance doesn’t have to make out with his ex-girlfriend anymore! 21 Epic Elena Gilbert GIFs 1. Double the Dobrev!
