Gossip Girl prides herself on naming the hot—and the not. So, we take it as a compliment that GG endorsed Ian Somerhalder’s Teen Choice nomination for TV’s “Male Hottie” of the year.
Check out what Gossip Girl has to say about Ian HERE.

Don’t you think Ian deserves the award?
Throughout The Awakening and The Struggle, it is pretty remarkable how well Matt is able to stay away from being the jealous ex-BF type around Elena. In fact, he actually goes out of his way at times to help the love of Elena’s life. (Remember how he took Stefan hours away in his junk box car so Stefan could gather vervain for Elena?)
We noticed that in The Fury, Matt finally gets a tad infuriated about doing favors for Elena. Once Matt realizes Elena is truly back, his first question is “So what do you want?” Ouch. That isn’t a very nice way to welcome back your first love and childhood friend!
It can’t be easy to be around a girl you’re in love with without getting a little bitter though, and Matt might have had a right to feel kind of used. Do you think Matt’s reaction was justified or just mean?

“It was useless to deny it; her body responded to his.” –The Struggle
We’ve looked at this quote before, but it stops us in our tracks every time. The quote sounds like it’s describing the attraction between Stefan and Elena. Think again!
In L.J. Smith’s second novel, The Struggle, there is an undeniable attraction that begins between Elena and Damon (unfortunately for him, it’s also unfulfilled). We know Elena is head over heels for Stefan, but even Elena herself admits that Damon’s almost scary good looks have quite an effect on her.
Elena tells herself that it wasn’t just Damon’s “powers” that were affecting her here. So do you think this attraction between Elena and Damon is something Stefan should worry about?

Bonnie’s powers are a crucial part of both L.J. Smith’s novels and the CW’s TVD TV series, but sometimes having the gift of psychic abilities seems like a downright downer.
In The Struggle, Bonnie accidently ruins a family meal at Elena’s house when she stares into the candle light at the dinner table and says “Death is in this house.” An awkward moment like that makes being a witch …and dinner … seem pretty unappetizing.
Although Bonnie sometimes fears using her powers, she ultimately accepts them and agrees to use them when it’s necessary. If you were Bonnie, would you see it all as a gift or as a curse?

“In grace and beauty and sheer fascination, they were alike. But where Katherine had been a white kitten, Elena was a snow-white tigress.”—The Struggle
After re-reading about the frightening encounter with Katherine in The Fury, we couldn’t help but think back to this quote from The Struggle. You could say that Katherine and Elena’s battle in The Fury was kind of a cat fight (literally) but when Elena first formally meets Katherine, we thought: Wait, who is supposed to be the “white kitten” here? Katherine certainly wasn’t.
If you can’t recall, Katherine makes her entrance in exactly the way Elena was previously described—as a white tigress … a terrifying white tigress. This might just be ANOTHER example of how in The Vampire Diaries “Nobody is what they seem.” What do you think Katherine is really up to?
For more on Katherine and Elena’s epic cat fight, read The Vampire Diaries: The Fury by L.J. Smith.
