Everyone who lived through the late 2000s and early 2010s knows how big of a star Robert Pattinson was. The absolute craze for Edward Cullen and theTwilightfranchise was nothing short of mesmerizing to witness. The vampire franchise spawned other shows like the most popularVampire Diaries. Ian Somerhalder in that show gained a lot of public adoration due to his role as Damon Salvatore.
Over the years, he dated his co-star Nina Dobrev, who played one of the protagonists, Elena Gilbert, in the show. It also looks like the actor had a specific preference- for brunette actresses who have played Vampire women. After all, his search for women who fit that niche criteria sent him into the arms of Pattinson’s co-star.
