I only eat candy on Halloween. No lie.

With all due respect to Taylor Lautner and his 18-pack abs, my werewolf is going to be 100 times cooler!

I'm a full-blooded Mexican. My mother was born in Zacatecas, Mexico, and my father - the son of Mexican immigrants - was born near Fresno, California.

I would love to dive into an indie film based on the streets of East Los Angeles where I grew up. If that doesn't come my way soon, I think I just might have to write it myself.

When our executive producer, Julie Plec, told me I was going to become a hybrid I got really excited. Because theres a lot of responsibility that comes with that, especially in our world of The Vampire Diaries where Tyler is the first successful hybrid thats made.

I've got to bring it 'cause they're going to compare me to that Taylor [Lautner] kid, and if I don't bring it, I'm just going to get crushed.

I don't know if it's a stare or if it's something I do with my eyes when I'm really focused in on someone or something. Apparently it comes out every now and then.

I was brought up bilingual, but there came a point where my mom went back to work and I got a white babysitter, so sadly I lost it. Now I can understand Spanish and put words together, but I don't speak it fluently. I'm ashamed of that.

I love my little sister to death
