Plecverse III: Return of The Plecverse

[ophy]

Okay, isadora is still on vaca, so I'm going to open a new thread even though she hasn't has a chance to close the old one.


Just pretend I torched Plecverse II.







Viva Plecverse III!

So! Nina has been out and about a whole bunch lately (and she's in Austin TX with friends at a music festival right now), and she's announced a new film project, released new mag shoots, appeared on tv a bunch, etc. Can't lay all that out right now, but wanted to post a few notable things . . .

Dobwell's red carpet debut was in NYC at Austin's movie (Bridge of Spies) premiere.

Nina wore Versace:







Calling her boy over:









I like the whole look, including her (male) accessory.

Nina was nearly unrecognizable in her TWO new photoshoots:








2nd shoot:










I like the first one way better.


. . . . and one of the former victims of the 2014 Boy Buffet spoke out about Nina's Unicorn Magicks today:











Amazeballs, right? Poor Bastian Baker. He posted this on both Twitter and Facebook, apparently. (And Nina still follows him on Twitter, so . . . how fun for her.)






Well! Despite Ian's truly weirdo plea . . .








. . . TVD's ratings were NOT GREAT for the premiere:










But for reals, I haven't even seen the TVD ep yet, and I still know this would have been a better storyline than whatever they ended up with:







Maybe Julie needs to put all her eggs in the Containment basket, because the TVD/TO-verse ain't looking great right now.



Speaking of, ONB and his co-stars were at NYCC this wkend:












Someone is looking hella broad, gotta say.










Anyhoodles, ending with Westonkin, okay.









So yeah, Westonkin keeps Westonkining.



A whole post accomplished with no embedded insta pics! I'm hoping that will keep this new thread easier and cleaner.

Nina's skin is glorious, but that dress is a doily.

[Velvetkiss]

I agree not feeling Nina's grammy look, it makes her looked to dull. ONB looks very happy and they are super cute in the picture! I agree what does soon mean, ONB????

[dada_teacher]

I actually like Nina's dress. And both Melissa and ONB look so cute in those pics.

[vanessa]

Thanks for the roundups, O. I don’t much are for Nina’s Grammy look, but good for her getting the gig.

ONB looks happy.

[ophy]

Nina's new dude GM actually IS a sccreenwriter/director! Ooops, mea culpa. He was at the Mammoth Film Fest yesterday b/c he had a short film premiering there:







I thought maybe IMDB didn't list short films, but I just checked ONB and the short film he wrote and directed which premiered at the Vancouver Film Festival a couple of weeks ago is listed, so I don't know what is up with that. Wouldn't it be hilars if Grant and ONB became short film festival circuit buddies? Ha.


Nina stayed in LA . . . to present at the Grammys (which is a pretty good excuse really):




















I do not love this. It's Dior, but really boring? Man, if I had Nina's amazing coloring, I'd never wear nude or beige or anything blah ever ever. Nothing really works here for me.

This is also hilars and totally tangential. David Anders posted the below . . . you may remember him from such things as playing Elena's daddy uncle, when he is only like 7 yrs older than Nina in real life:

Papa Can You Hear Me?
Papa We We’re Both Born In The Eighties.
Papa How Can That Be!?
I Dunno Ask K-Dubs & JP.#TVD pic.twitter.com/T1ulQ4FQB9

— David Anders (@QuestionAnders) February 10, 2019

. . . but then of course, Sara Canning, her 'aunt', is only two yrs older than Nina, and SMQ who played Elena's 'baby brother' is six months OLDER than Nina, so it's all just one fucked up Gilbert clan.



Anyhoo, somebody please remind ONB that the next time he takes a gig he needs to make sure he's not stepping into any tinhatting nightmares again, because those supercorpers/melties (Melissa/Katie tinhatters) are being total dicks about his wedding. A Meltie Meltdown if you will.

In this symbolic photograph, one can assume that the camera angle used to highlight the man’s beard and the ring on the woman’s left hand, was intentional in order to highlight the relationship of beard and closeted dyke.

I see what is obvious. Taylor does the least to make sure her (straight) fans are happy. Melissa is a hot mess who dresses gayer than your biggest dyke, mixed in with looking miserable with her jump off.

They’re closeted. What about this do you not get?

I’ve said it before, but I’m of the opinion that Mel is a hyper sexual not-straight woman. She’s unfortunately from a conservative part of the country.

IN 2019 WE’RE ALL BI FAKING AND GETTING ENGAGED TO DEMON MALES

Can't wait for Mel to publicly cheat on Chris once they get married it's just an elaborate way to meltie endgame

my lesbian ass looks at him and feels my pussy instantly dry over. sad!

lmfaoo this engagement bullshit is sending me... shall we start placing bets on how long this is gonna last now or after the wedding? If there really is a megamind jr on the way I'm going to give it 5 years but she cheats on him for at least 3 1/2 of those years. If there's no baby forehead coming I give it 6 months before she finally gets tired of not having orgasms.. this shit honestly so funny. Like heterosexuals are wild lmfao

not to be a conspiracy theorist but melissa benoist is the karlie kloss to katie mcgrath’s taylor swift

NOT TO BE A CONSPIRACY THEORIST HA HA HA HA HA THAT'S FUNNY.

. . . and they've already done this, because of course they have:












I'm really not blaming him for not signing on for another season of Supergirl because yiiiiikes what assholes.

[ophy]

I'm choosing to believe that this only happened because Chris has now officially lost his ONE TRU LOVE Paul to Ines. Ha!


























(WHAT DOES 'SOON' MEAN IN THIS CONTEXT???)




From their jeweler:












No for reals, that is so adorable and it's a very nice ring and I think this is really awesome and I hope hope hope we get lots of TVDers at the wedding (since Paul DENIED us a TVD wedding).




Side note, those supercorper tinhats who think Mel is actually in love with Katie McGrath and who overlap with the Kaylor tinhats who are mad at Karlie for marrying Josh are really having a baaaaad time right now. (The Venn diagram of Supercorpers and Kaylors is practically a circle, just sayin'.)

[dada_teacher]

Paul's wife is really cute. I loved this update.

[ophy]

To make up for that terrible pic the outlets are using to announce the SEKRIT MARRIEDS news, here are some better ones of Paul and Ines:

















There's not a lot out there about her, but I did see this on FF:

She was a retail coordinator for a jewelry store when she met Paul. She quit the job and went back to school and is almost certified to become a health coach.

Health coach works well for Paul's vegan lifestyle, I assume! And because she's a civilian, they will probs stay married forever and ever. It increases their chances by like a billion.



So . . . congrats! Y'all are cute, and this whole thing is perfectly fine and acceptable.










Before all of this news, the Dobsley fans were having a bit of a renaissance, with hopes a'stirring after several Nina/Paul interactions lately.


A few weeks ago, Paul watched Nina shoot Fam and totally surprised her onset during the curtain call:

STOP EVERYTHING, PAUL SURPRISED NINA ON SET OF HER NEW SHOW AND THEY HUGGED I CAN’T pic.twitter.com/EbtgTvChY8

— ً (@dcbrevs) September 13, 2018

I mean, how ADORABLE was that? She literally screamed when she saw him. And the hug! Dobsely hopes were SOARING.




And Nina said this in an interview recently:











Which is saying something considering she goes on vaca with Trevino and Kayla Ewell, like, all the time.




And you can see the Dobsely influence on her insta as well:

Duno. What character would you guys like to see him play? I’ll pitch it to him! https://t.co/PHJm5VAP07

— Nina Dobrev (@ninadobrev) January 25, 2019

We BFFs https://t.co/w92cTVvjcM

— Nina Dobrev (@ninadobrev) January 25, 2019

All of this Dobseyness culminated in late Jan, when Paul actually posted from inside Nina's house:












So yes! There were some peeps (lightly) mourning when E! announced Paul and neens were both otherwise taken.

. . . but TRUE FANS won't give up!

Oh Im sorry if you call yourself dobsley stan and you’ve saying “dobsley is dead”. I have to say. I saw wesvitto happening, nian, weskin, etc. And I NEVER GIVE UP ON THEM! So, if you are a trly stan, just shut up and keep going! Love&kisses.

— Drama Queen (@drix_xx) February 10, 2019

I don't think anyone is going to be more than just mildly heartbroken by it, though.




Side note! this was a wackadilly moment during a Paul and Ian panel at a con yesterday in Nashville (YES THEY ARE STILL DOING CONS TOGETHER CAN YOU BELIEEEEEVE IT):

paul and ian on guest starring in nina’s show “fam” #tvdnash #tv dnashville pic.twitter.com/vr8UfkF5Sz

— isabella (@timberswesley) February 10, 2019

Someone in the audience asks if either of them would consider guesting on Nina's show, and Ian fumbles around with it (i mean, the answer was obviously just NOT A CHANCE IN HELLLL MY WIFE WOULD KILLLL ME, but he couldn't quite come out with it) and Paul interjects that he and Nina have discussed it and that he (Paul) might actually do it, and Ian mock angrily says "Yo homie, you been talking to my ex-girlfriend? what the-?" like he was joking but it was still just WEIRD.









You'd think that after doing LITERALLY a gajillion jillion of these dumb panels Ian would be much better prepared for when Nina, his co-star of like, seven YEARS is brought up, but he still seems to be flummoxed that people would bring her up to his face. AT A TVD PANEL WHERE PEOPLE ASK ABOUT TVD AND TVD RELATED THINGS.










And since I'm here talking about Ian anyway, he and Nikki made it! . . . onto a list of couples who don't realize that they are no longer relevant.

Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder are stuck in the past

Since the final installment of The Twilight Saga in 2012, Nikki Reed has appeared in a handful of episodes of the since-canceled Sleepy Hollow, a Hanson music video, and a few projects with seemingly very limited releases. She attempted a music career when she was married to American Idol loser Paul McDonald from 2011 to 2015, but that didn't do well — perhaps, in part, because their duet music video for the single "Now That I've Found You" frustratingly kept cutting off their faces. In fact, they separated before the project was released.

Ian Somerhalder, who Reed married in 2015 not long after her divorce from McDonald was finalized, hasn't done much since The Vampire Diaries ended in 2017, though he's slated to star in TV series V-Wars in 2019 — yet another vampire-themed show. Maybe next time they'll consider their own relevance before refusing to take photos for fans, the way the Daily Mail reported that Somerhalder did to a group in Paris in May 2015.

They were sandwiched in between Nick Lachey/Vanessa, and Jenny McCarthy/Donnie Walhberg (I didn't even know they were a thing!)





Anyhoo, Paul is not the only member of Westonkin that Nina has been reuniting with . . .












They were both in Aspen a few days ago for a Frame event. They used to be Fashion Week buds, but you never see them hanging out anymore. I had just assumed that Paul got custody of Neens in the Westonkin split, so this was nice to see.




And of course, Nina just can't emerge from the slopes unscathed:










Speaking of TVD reunions, Nina and GM went to Tijuana with Trevino as part of a charity that helps families that were split up at the border:












You can really see how tall he is there, wow.


And Mellobrev went to the SuperBowl in ATL with Kayla and her husband:









(that's GM's eyebrow. Artfully cropped! ha.)



Nina was all fancified b/c she presented at that honors thingy like she does most years. I'm way digging that red dress:












The fact that they were spotted making out at the Super Bowl and the rumors made it to US weekly is probs why she and Grant went public afterwards:


https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity...-bowl-parties/



Her rep totally denied she was dating anyone, but then the E! confirmation came out just hours later. So yeah, don't think it was planned far in advance. Interesting that US W doesn't get the couples exclusives anymore, but E! does.



It's been a really 'Busy' week for Nina!








If ya'll decide to throw me into a pit for that pun, I will totally understand, just let me pack some snacks first, thanks.


Okay! That was all I gots on the main peeps.



But I thought y'all would appreciate ONB's sign at the women's march:










But not everyone did!

[Velvetkiss]

RIP Westonkin, you will be missed. So now that makes me wonder than, what happened with Phoebe. I mean it always seemed like she was ready to be married and he wasnt. Seems fast, but I hope he is happy.

[ophy]

So now that Nina/Mellon is publicized, I give it no more than 3 months.

He's 6 ft 4, so I give it four more months.










Ugh, I just wanna post things but mr.o is making me watch British people murder other British people right now.

[vanessa]

So now that Nina/Mellon is publicized, I give it no more than 3 months.

[Laura]

Aw, RIP Westonkin, you were a good ship while you lasted. Congrats to PDubs and the new missus.

PDUBS GOT SEKRIT MARRIEDS!!!!!!

Surprise! The Vampire Diaries' Paul Wesley Is Married

Paul Wesley is officially off the market!

E! News has exclusively learned that The Vampire Diaries star and Ines de Ramon are married.

Speculation about the couple's relationship status was sparked earlier this week when photos surfaced of the pair wearing matching rings on that all-important finger.
As it turns out, the duo was able to take a big step in their relationship without anyone knowing—until now!

The pair has yet to walk a red carpet together. And if you think you're going to see the pair all over Instagram, you may be out of luck. Ines' profile is private.

Literally no other deets??? FAIL.

LOL at the pic E! used for the announcement, though:



















fuzzy ring enhancement:











Yep, marrieds.




. . . and on this EXACT SAME day, E! also breaks the SHOCKING! news that Nina is dating Grant Mellon:


https://www.eonline.com/news/1013112...d-grant-mellon

Inside Nina Dobrev's Relationship With New Boyfriend Grant Mellon

Nina Dobrev has a new man in her life!

The Vampire Diaries actress is dating screenwriter and director Grant Mellon, but is keeping things low-key between her and the hunk. A source tells E! News, "Even though the relationship is still hush-hush, Nina refers to Grant as her boyfriend among her inner circle of friends."

The insider says that in the short time that Nina's friends and Grant have spent together, like at her 30th birthday party, they have started to "really like Grant."

And Grant has even gotten her bestie's seal of approval! "The two have spent time as a couple with Nina's best friend Julianne Hough and her husband Brooks Laich," the insider shares.

While he is well-liked by all of Nina's friends, the Fam star is keen on keeping things private. The source says, "Nina and Grant have been intentionally keeping their relationship as low-key as possible."

It's early days, but the source shares that Nina is "really happy" with her new beau.

Before dating Grant, Nina was linked to Scream Queens star Glenn Powell for some time. Glenn was frequently Nina's date to big events like her birthday party and best friend Julianne's wedding in Idaho.

However, after only months of dating, the pair drifted apart due to their demanding schedules. "There hasn't been an official 'split' but Nina and Glen have been taking time apart," a source previously shared with us. "Nina just wrapped on a project and is about to start another and her schedule has been a huge part of it. They haven't been spending much time together since the end of the summer."

But, in the words of Ariana Grande: "Thank U, Next."

The pic they use for Dobrellon/Mellobrev/Ninant? (Mellobrev is probs best) is also pretty lol:











. . . well, Nina has a track record of dating guys who wear dumb hats so okay.



. . . . and uh . . . if Grant is a screenwriter/director, IMBD doesn't seem to know about it.












I have some bits and pieces Imma post later, but just wanted to run here with the PDubian matrimonial news while it was still fresh.



Goodby Westonkin FOREVAH.

[Velvetkiss]

Isadora I am with you on that I thought Roswell was okay. I did not think Carina did a good job with writing, casting or trying to make it political. If she wanted to do a political drama, then why not just pass on Roswell and go find that project, because Roswell was not meant to be political. Liz is legal because she was born in the USA, but her parents are illegal, I believe. I also think Carina did not do a good job with casting some of the characters.
