The CW’s “Vampire Diaries” makes it’s series debut Thursday, September 10th and co-stars up and coming Brown Sista, Katerina Graham. The Swiss born Graham may be best known as the voice behind will.i.am’s single “I Got It From My Mama”, but the talented singer, dancer and model says she is now ready to flex her acting muscle full time. After landing plum roles in “CSI: Las Vegas, “The OC”, and “Hannah Montana”, the actress soon found herself in high demand and being offered roles beside some of Hollywood’s most sought after bachelors. Graham was seen in the film “17 Again,” with Zac Efron and Matthew Perry. Her upcoming film projects also include “Our First Christmas” and “Bleachers,” the remake of “The Breakfast Club.” She can also be seen in “Chicago Pulaski Jones,” directed by Cedric the Entertainer. She recently completed filming the movie “Boogie Town,” with Marques Houston, Brenda Song, and Vanessa Simmons, as well as the upcoming thriller “The Roommate,” with Leighton Meester of “Gossip Girl.”
Check out Katerina and the rest of the cast in the extended trailer for The Vampire Diaries below.
im watching this because true blood is about to be over
lol CO-SIGN Voice.
Let’s see what will happen with her career. Hopefully she doesn’t turn into the token black chick in this generation’s white teen movies/TV shows (the position formerly held by Gabrielle Union in the 90s).
So…..this is just Twilight for TV, yes? Alrighty then.
I am probably the only woman in America who’s never thought that pale, pasty bloodsuckers are sexy.
I am so over the one token brotha or sista thing. Plus the CW gets no love from me after the way they did The Game.
One token black girl who’s tripping over the white vampire guy? Where are the brotha’s in this flick? They should at least make one for the sista girl to date in this. Why cant we put out shows like this for US and have a few tokens? Not the stereotypes that we always seem to put out, but maybe something like this….ya know? damn.
Lol @ ys’ll the token black kills me in most of these always shows…it’s almost insulting it’s like damn you should’ve just let it be an all white show but w/e I guess. BUT I will check it out …. they could’ve thrown in a black guy or 2 also like in True Blood lol.
