Character Profile Four: Katherine Pierce
Lucky girl Nina Dobrev getting to play not one, but two characters in the same show! Talk about stretching the acting muscles. And she does so well, I might add. While Elena seems a little meek and mild and in the background somehow, Katherine is anything but and again, is as opposite to Elena as Damon is to Stefan.
Katherine is an exciting character and again, adds fuel to the slow-burning fire surrounding the mysterious and supernatural history of Mystic Falls. She’s mean, but not in an obviously crass way. We learn that she’s a vampire, and the reason for both Stefan and Damon turning into vampires and both falling in love with her.
She’s an articulate manipulator of the highest calibre, masterful at playing the game to win, no matter what the odds. As long as she is in control of the situation, all is well. For Katherine, it’s always about control. And she’s a survivor. In some ways, I do see this one similarity in Elena as well. Strong and willful, it’s just that Katherine shows it openly and doesn’t care about hurting people. I guess when you’ve been a vampire for hundreds of years, caring about humans and feelings doesn’t really come into the equation any more. Good stuff! Another juicy character to get our hands dirty with.
You’ll love to hate Katherine and Nina Dobrev does an excellent job of portraying her. And if you thought the love triangle in Twilight was complicated, you ain’t seen nothing yet boys and girls!

The Vampire Diaries
Character Profile One: Elena Gilbert
At first, I really liked Elena. But as time passed, I started to think she was a tad annoying, she was also kinda dull and really pretty boring. Apart from being gorgeous to look at (as are most of the cast), there was nothing really going on with her.
The diary entries eventually became a little lacklustre. I felt that she was definitely suffering the loss of her parents a little too much which thankfully, kinda ended after she met Stefan Salvatore.
As far as characters go (in the bigger picture), Elena is about as dull as you can get. While I understand that she is kind of the “gel” that keeps the group of “friends” together through all the hard times that befall them living in Mystic Falls, that’s really nothing to write home about.
Elena, I’m sorry, but your doppleganger Katherine is way more interesting. And we’ll leave it at that.
Really, really nice hair though…
