‘Vampire Diaries’ Star Nina Dobrev Says Elena’s On An ‘Indefinite’ Vacation

Portraying both good and evil on the same television series is difficult enough, but when that good and evil are in one body, that means a serious challenge for an actor.

star Nina Dobrev plays both Elena Gilbert and her 500-year-old doppelganger Katherine Pierce, and now that Katherine has hijacked Elena's body on the show, Nina is taking her acting abilities to a whole new level.

"Elena is kind of gone, Katherine took over her body, so she's MIA and nobody knows, it's kind of like going missing, like, getting kidnapped and the kidnapper leaving a note and saying that you're on vacation for indefinitely and, welp, nobody is going to look for you because they don't know you're gone," She told MTV News at the DIRECTV Celebrity Beach Bowl over the weekend. "It's kind of a scary thing for her and it'll be interesting to see how long Katherine can get away with it."

While the cast has become accustomed to several body-switching situations, Nina is the only one to have played the part of Katherine. In a recent episode, however, that all could have changed, when we learned Katherine's "Traveler" blood allowed her to inhabit the body of anyone. While her character chose to take over Elena, Nina thinks another one of her castmates could have done the infamous Katherine Pierce justice.

"I think Candice [Accola, who regularly plays Caroline Forbes] would do a really good job," Nina laughed. "Katherine Caroline. That would be cool."

With so many twists and turns over the last 100-plus episodes, Nina says she can't pick ...

Kanye, The Neptunes, The-Dream: Pusha T Working With The Best On ‘King Push’

That Clipse reunion album isn't arriving as soon as fans would like, but the production for Pusha T's next solo album, King Push, is already underway thanks to The Neptunes.

Pusha T hit the studio with his old partners in crime, Pharrell and Chad Hugo, at the beginning of January and during a visit to on Wednesday, he revealed that they hadn't lost a beat since their early sessions for Clipse projects.

"It was so good just to be back in the studio with them. I haven't been back in the studio with both of them in forever," Push explained. "We were [in Miami] for like three weeks and it's safe to say that we've got a hard direction cemented, going into the new King Push album."

"We're still in the early stages, but it was just so good to be back in that creative space and creative energy with those two guys, playing things that I like, showing them what I'm into these days, and them showing me what they into and revisiting our aspirations coming up."

Last year Pusha told MTV News that while he was recording My Name Is My Name under The-Dream's guidance, he pushed himself to re-write and tweak songs more than ever before. That mentality is sticking with him this time around.

"That comes along with the super producer," he said. "When I'm in the studio with The Neptunes or The-Dream or Kanye West or Swizz, those guys will give you a beat but they already have a direction for what they want the record ...

Seems like Miley Cyrus' Bangerz tour is going to take fans for a wild ride ... on a hot dog.

With just a little over a week until her tour kicks off on February 14 in Vancouver, Cyrus decided to give her Smilers a little taste of what they can expect, and by the looks of it, it's going to be delicious. The "Adore You" singer shared a photo on Twitter that shows her in a crop top, sucking her thumb and laying across a giant hot dog that's suspended in the air.

Cyrus promised she'd have on tour, posted another photo as she danced in the mirror as someone dressed in a giant blue dog head is behind her.

In between rehearsals and posing topless for W magazineand Vogue Germany, Miley has also been teasing fans with photos of some Bangerz Tour merchandise, fit with underwear and "Marry me Miley" T-shirts.

Cyrus, who may have given fans a preview of what's to come during her recent performance, has teamed up with "Ren & Stimpy" creator John Kricfalusi, to make sure they "really tell a story" with this tour.

"It's a lot how a play would be and we've got kind of these intermissions to keep people really involved and what I wanted is for people to see a show that they would least expect," Cyrus explained to MTV News. "It is fun for people to walk out and be like 'Oh my god did she just do that?' but there's so much that ...

Three Amazing Things Chris Pratt Told Us About The Next ‘Jurassic Park’ Movie

Chris Pratt is pretty much living the dreaming right now. "The LEGO Movie," his first starring role, opens in theaters this week. This summer, his second headlining part — in a Marvel movie no less — hits theaters. The summer after that, he'll lead the new "Jurassic Park" movie.

"Jurassic World," as it's being called, has fans of the original eager to see if Steven Spielberg and writer-director Colin Trevorrow can breathe new life in the dormant dinosaur series, and thanks to our recent talk with Pratt, we know that the leading man thinks they can pull it off.

Pratt couldn't tell us too much about "Jurassic World," but what we did get out of him should be enough to get fans excited.

There is a simple question at the heart of the story.
After three movies about dinosaurs that are essentially trapped on a secluded island. Why the hell would anyone go back there? Pratt explained that not only does "Jurassic World" address that question, but the answer to it was one of the reasons he joined the movie in the first place.

"What I liked about it was it answers the question, 'Why would you do that?' How do you suspend disbelief to be like 'Oh, yes, let's make this mistake again'? 'We haven't learned our lesson about dinosaurs. We should definitely live with them to see how that works out after three tries at it,' " Pratt said. "[Trevorrow] answers the question really well through the script. Colin did a great job of writing it and justifying it, in his ...

Here’s Why Miley Cyrus Should Be On The Cover American <i>Vogue</i> Instead

Miley Cyrus, deep in Marilyn Monroe mode, is on the cover of Germany's Vogue this March. With a curly, short 'do, see-through halter and cherry red lips, Miley's never looked happier. But it reminds fans of her not-so-gleeful past with Vogue — the rumors that editor-in-chief Anna Wintour had barred her from the American cover after her scandalous VMAs performance in August.

But that didn't stop the "Wrecking Ball" singer from taking her Vogue desires across the pond. And Cyrus' German Vogue spread stands out, well, because of her fully exposed chest. Sure, we've seen Miley side boob, Miley deep V, Miley everything-but nipples and even Miley camel toe (and yeah, I know you just clicked every single one of those links), but as MTV Style pointed out earlier today, full-on Miley boob was inevitable. And there's no reason why that couldn't happen at U.S. Vogue. Hello, when has high fashion ever been afraid of nudity?

Here are the reasons why Miley should land herself a shoot with the U.S. Fashion Bible:

It's Pretty Much The Only Magazine She Needs
Gotta catch 'em all! Miley's been on pretty much every magazine cover on the planet. Cosmo, Marie Claire, Glamour, Notion, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Billboard, Rolling Stone and way more. Multiple times. Help her finish her collection, Anna!

The VMAs Aren't An Excuse
Her twerk-tastic show at the 2013 awards could've brought her down with all the backlash that followed, but Miley has ...

Demi Lovato Admits Her Tour Is ’90 Percent’ Nick Jonas

BURBANK, California — With only a few more days to go, the countdown is officially on for Demi Lovato's much anticipated Neon Lights tour.

With the promise to Lovato is pulling out all the stops for the tour, which kicks off Sunday in Vancouver, including friend Nick Jonas who has signed on to be the creative and musical director behind the tour.

On Wednesday (February 5) MTV News stopped by Lovato's tour rehearsal in Burbank, California where she took a break, along with Jonas, to reveal just how their latest collaboration came together.

"Phil [Demi's manager] and I were going through ideas for the tour and I always want his [Nick's] opinion on stuff cause he knows exactly what he's talking about," Lovato said. "And he had visions for this tour and he threw out some ideas and they were really good and we just thought 'Why don't you just do the whole tour, please?' so it's turned out amazing and like 90 percent is his work."

Jonas said he is marking this time in his life as a "season of transition" as he says goodbye to the Jonas Brothers, who split in October, and begins the next phase of his career, which includes his own music and acting. However, he decided to side-step that for the moment for this exciting opportunity.

"I love my relationship with Demi and our friendship," Jonas said. "The fact that she asked me to come in and sort of help take her visions and her dreams and turn them into a reality onstage was ...
