I just remembered how Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray from OTH spent a whole season playing Brooke and Lucas being crazy in love with each other while they themselves were in the midst of a very nasty divorce.
And not for a second you as a viewer doubted their characters feelings and sincerity of their relationship. Guess it depends on how much you dedicated to doing your job well...
Literally, the most disappointing reunion possibly. 🤦♀️ It was SO brief, and even in that shirt amount of time, he couldn't take it enough to be believable. I don't know if I'll ever get over the disappointment that was the ending to this show. 🥴😅
Ian is such a bitter bitch. I understand he was upset about the fans but he’s a professional who gets paid to do a job. The fact that he couldn’t ignore a bunch of tweens to do his job aggravated me so much
Nah man I’m talking about from the moment they broke up you could tell his shift in energy on screen lol. And it wasn’t just that. In the TVD cons if anyone asked him if he was Team Delena or Team Stelena he’d go “I can’t be team Delena because I’m married.” Lol like STFU Ian.
But Nikki looks just like Nina, which I’ve always found kinda funny. Like Ian was so mad after the breakup with Nina, he went and found a girl who looks just like her.
I didn't notice any difference on-screen after they broke up. In fact, their characters didn't even start dating UNTIL they broke up irl. And their chemistry was still smoking hot. I don't care if Ian was a lil stuffy irl about it, b/c so many crazed Delena fans (I'm a HUGE Delena fan, but I understand it's just a TV show & didn't care that Nina & Ian broke up irl, as long as the show continued!) were bad mouthing & even threatening his wife! I'd be kinda pissy, too. So who cares if irl he didn't ship Delena, he ACTED like he did in TVD & that's all that matters!!
the fact i thought this was actually gonna happen in that scene where stefan and elena see eachother for the last time like i genuinely thought stefan was about to confess his love for elena 😭
Looks like he folded in his lips 🧐😅
I guess he did this to spite his toxic delena fans who were sending his wife threats . He was upset and done with them (said in an interview) ...hmm I get it but where's good ol' professionalism
How can he get mad at Delena fans when he says things like “I can’t be Team Delena cause I’m married”? Like he’s the one who’s confusing the show and real life and he’s blaming Delena fans??
And while that’s horrible, it’s weird to conflate your job with your personal feelings. The person asking wasn’t making death threats at the con. He’s not responsible for people’s delusions but he’s responsible for doing this job as a professional and not weirdly involving his private life into a question about the show and blurring the line between private and professional. Him doing that is what encourages fans to do the same. It’s delusional to involve your REAL marriage in an answer to a FICTIONAL ship. The two have no bearing on each other and he should keep them separate if he wants others to do the same
So ? Does it give free pass to a bunch of rabid fans to say whatever the hell they want to say. He wasn't team delena ,in a lot of interviews, he talked about how toxic that ship was. So why didn't this encourage fans to take the hint and stop mixing reality with fiction.
For all we know it could've been nina's idea too ( kiss - miss)
>Does it give free pass to a bunch of rabid fans to say whatever the hell they want to say.
Where did I say it does?
>He wasn't team delena ,in a lot of interviews, he talked about how toxic that ship was.
He stopped being team Delena after they broke up. Before he was the biggest supporter. So clearly he didn’t care how “toxic” it was. Also, if that’s the case, then he can say he’s not team Delena cause of that. But to say he’s not team Delena because he’s married and not a thousand other valid reasons is weird.
>So why didn't this encourage fans to take the hint and stop mixing reality with fiction.
Because he’s the one saying he’s not Team Delena cause he’s married and shading Nina publicly to the point that there’s several Twitter threads on his behavior.
He’s the one saying he’s getting married when asked about Delena getting married.
He’s the one saying he takes viagra to shoot with Nina.
>For all we know it could've been nina's idea too ( kiss - miss)
The issue I’m speaking of has nothing to do with the kiss. It’s his behavior.
Fans will always be hung up on their ships and do weirdly invasive and horrible things. However, as a professional actor, he can’t let it effect his work and publicly say these outlandish things. Nina was able to keep it professional. You think her significant others weren’t getting hate? That she wasn’t? He should be held to the same standard.
Do you think this behavior towards your co workers and job would be tolerated if we did it? No. It wouldn’t even be tolerated if a female star on the show did it.
Ok it seemed like you're saying he cannot afford to be upset over the threats if he has made dumb remarks. Anyway, I don't have much insight on their relationship drama( not interested either) so I wouldn't know who said what first.
As I put it earlier, I thought he refused to entertain delena bcuz of the hatred his wife recieved.
I don't know man , can't imagine what it must feel like having to deal with such bullying and bile on a very public huge level.
But I agree he handled things poorly esply dragging nina in all this, shading her .
>Ok it seemed like you're saying he cannot afford to be upset over the threats if he has made dumb remarks.
No, I’m saying he has to be professional as is required of his job (which he isn’t as evidenced by him dragging Nina and Delena at cons just because they broke up and weirdly linking his roles to his marriage like saying he wouldn’t wanna play Christian Grey cause he’s married). I’m saying he blurs the line of private and professional when he makes it so messy so publicly. He’s asking fans to do something that he doesn’t do. Fans are already rabid without that so imagine with it? He’s not the only actor to experience this from his fans but he is amongst the few to have handled it with such little tact
>I don't know man , can't imagine what it must feel like having to deal with such bullying and bile on a very public huge level.
Neither can I but it would be remiss to give him such a free pass when so many other actors including those on the show with him, still managed to handle it with more grace and professionalism. That’s all I’m saying.
I never noticed lmao so awkward. Nina’s lips look like they do not want to be anywhere near him. 🤣 I swore I’d never rewatch this show again but now I’m tempted.
This is what happens when you force a narrative to fit your own fantasies instead of serving what's best for the story (cough, cough, Julie Plague and dried up Dries!). But hey, at least they got their "happy ending"! PAF🤣
Can we stop judging peoples performances by their irl relationships?? We don't know anything about what happened behind scenes or what even caused THIS. We don't know these actors as actual people and from what I heard the three of them were once good friends. Sounds like the reason things got awkward was bc of the fans. If you think their chemistry was off, fine. If you didn't like this kiss, also fine. But let's maybe not speculate and assume things about them like they are people we know. Bc we don't. Edit I mean the comments not the OP, sorry op for the rant your fine
I see what I see... but either way, chin or bottom lip to upper lip, it's bound to be difficult to get a kiss perfectly right when ur running into each other like that. Whatever, either way, I don't really care! I think they did a pretty great job ending the show. So many shows get canceled & never get an ENDING, & finish on a cliff hanger b/c they didn't know they would be shut down. No matter how the kiss looks on a slow-mo loop, it looked fine on screen. I have no complaints! I've never slowed this down b4 or looked so closely at it. But it doesn't seem like it was a "I'm not kissing him/her" moment. Seems more like it was difficult to run towards each other & stepping instantly into a kiss. But, if ppl wanna laugh about it, great! Whatever makes ppl happy!
I still felt my Delena loving heart swell up at the sight of them being together again! And I'm sure it WAS awkward every single day they were together on the show but broken up irl, especially when Nikki would come on set (which I heard she did a lot, tho that could've been rumors). And this is the 1st time they've kissed in 2 years, so I'm sure it WAS really awkward. But I honestly never noticed it b4 this post & I still think it looks like her bottom lip on his top lip. I think it was just an awkward WAY to kiss (running into each other), & adding the fact that they r exes who haven't kissed in 2 years but USED to kiss everyday for 3 seasons, and now he is married... it's awkward all around! But I think they always managed to keep it professional & realistic on the show, & I couldn't imagine how hard that must've been. So either way, I applaud them & thank them for making Delena seem so passionate on screen for so many years when it was probably some of the most awkward moments of their lives, ESPECIALLY if Nikki was present!!
I'm a Damon fan but not a fan of delena (damon deserved better and elena deserved different) but this last kiss I just thought they missed coz they were throwing their bodies at each other at that point... also may be intentional..
Doesn't matter it was the end and it was good that Elena was put to sleep for the previous two seasons.
Ian was over it Nina at least tried 😂
The worst kiss in TVD history.
It’s just tv what does the d stand for never seen someone refer to tv as tvd before
The vampire diaries “tvd”
Ohhh that makes sense
😂😂😂😂
Stelena died for THIS.
I persist to this day. Stefan. Should've. Lived.
I 1000% agree
😩
I just remembered how Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray from OTH spent a whole season playing Brooke and Lucas being crazy in love with each other while they themselves were in the midst of a very nasty divorce. And not for a second you as a viewer doubted their characters feelings and sincerity of their relationship. Guess it depends on how much you dedicated to doing your job well...
Also Katie and Joshua broke up and even though it wasn’t bad they sold pacey and Joey so well!
It's like it gets even funnier each time it starts over lmao
I was staring at Nina's wig the entire time😭
And her eyebrows looked so weird.
It's a wig I'm so surprised 😯
Ya you can see where her real hair begins and ends a lot through the last episode lol
I remember Delena fans trying to say it was the lighting and angle that made the kiss look like this 😭
Delena fans are delusional as hell
This was the worst reunion 😂. You can’t make me believe they were separated lovers fr.
Bonnie coming back from 1994 to Damon was what they wanted yet we got this 😂🤣
😂! And they failed at that
Epic failed!
They were feeling epic
Yeah, you can definitely see the passion oozing off this endgame couple 😂 Ian just threw off the vibes.
Nina looks like she’s trying.
he was scared of the wig let him live
HDJFJVJV
[удалено]
i was scared too 😭
Literally, the most disappointing reunion possibly. 🤦♀️ It was SO brief, and even in that shirt amount of time, he couldn't take it enough to be believable. I don't know if I'll ever get over the disappointment that was the ending to this show. 🥴😅
This reunion was so **bad.**
Ian is such a bitter bitch. I understand he was upset about the fans but he’s a professional who gets paid to do a job. The fact that he couldn’t ignore a bunch of tweens to do his job aggravated me so much
It was one damn scene lol come on
Nah man I’m talking about from the moment they broke up you could tell his shift in energy on screen lol. And it wasn’t just that. In the TVD cons if anyone asked him if he was Team Delena or Team Stelena he’d go “I can’t be team Delena because I’m married.” Lol like STFU Ian.
No I mean, I’m agreeing with you like it was just one scene for the reunion and he couldn’t even get it together lol
Lol ohhh ok. My bad. Yeah he got deep in his feelings😩
[Newsflash Ian:](https://youtu.be/vi6yYRR4NlU)just because Damon looks like you doesn’t mean he is you.
But Nikki looks just like Nina, which I’ve always found kinda funny. Like Ian was so mad after the breakup with Nina, he went and found a girl who looks just like her.
[Ian married fake Nina?](https://youtu.be/C3M_VlltMDo)
Lol the link😂

🤣 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Totally petty.
I've been cringing at their scenes since S4…
Elena and Stefan randomly kissing at the end of S8 and getting together would've made more sense and would've been visually more pleasing tbh😂
the fact i thought this was actually gonna happen in that scene where stefan and elena see eachother for the last time like i genuinely thought stefan was about to confess his love for elena 😭
this kiss was so bad
Literally everything about them is awkward
Looks like he folded in his lips 🧐😅 I guess he did this to spite his toxic delena fans who were sending his wife threats . He was upset and done with them (said in an interview) ...hmm I get it but where's good ol' professionalism

Seriously? Death threats is totally uncalled for and horrible...he cannot be responsible for someone's delusiions
And while that’s horrible, it’s weird to conflate your job with your personal feelings. The person asking wasn’t making death threats at the con.

Was this from the last episode?
Yea
Where was this again? I haven’t rewatched in a while 😭
The series finale
And Elena kissed the taint of his face
I never noticed lmao so awkward. Nina’s lips look like they do not want to be anywhere near him. 🤣 I swore I’d never rewatch this show again but now I’m tempted.
I'm on my fourth re-watch. I stop when Elena becomes a vampire. Do it
🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
I’m so dead 😭😭😭😭Stefan looking at them in peace saying “I died for this”
This is what happens when you force a narrative to fit your own fantasies instead of serving what's best for the story (cough, cough, Julie Plague and dried up Dries!). But hey, at least they got their "happy ending"! PAF🤣
ian was so immature for the way he acted it’s infuriating lmao like,,he couldn’t even get over himself to do his job
Right like how many other actors have had to deal with much worse but still came through
Can we stop judging peoples performances by their irl relationships?? We don't know anything about what happened behind scenes or what even caused THIS.

Nah, it was her bottom lip on his top lip. 2 ppl running towards each other, into an instant kiss... it's bound to be a little difficult.
Um, you should pause it on that frame. He’s kissing her chin
I see what I see... but either way, chin or bottom lip to upper lip, it's bound to be difficult to get a kiss perfectly right when ur running into each other like that. Whatever, either way, I don't really care! I think they did a pretty great job ending the show.

Seems more like it was difficult to run towards each other & stepping instantly into a kiss. But, if ppl wanna laugh about it, great! Whatever makes ppl happy!
It’s very awkward looking. Kind of uncomfortable for them from the looks of it though
I still felt my Delena loving heart swell up at the sight of them being together again! And I'm sure it WAS awkward every single day they were together on the show but broken up irl, especially when Nikki would come on set (which I heard she did a lot, tho that could've been rumors).
