Nina Dobrev reportedly dissed her ex, Ian Somerhalder, for lecturing fans in Paris while "The Vampire Diaries" reportedly issued a half-apology for the incident.
According to Celebrity Dirty Laundry, Nina Dobrev apparently reminded Ian Somerhalder on how to behave around fans.
"On May 31 on her Instagram account looking like an idiot (shot at Ian!) behind a cup on which is printed in bold 'WAKE UP - KICK ASS - BE KIND - REPEAT.' Was this a message to unkind Ian?" it said.
The 30-second video was posted on Twitter by a fan of Ian Somerhalder showing "The Vampire Diaries" star leaving a building and mobbed by fans. That apparently ticked him off.
He told the fans, "Hey guys, listen. Everybody stop. No no, listen. I love you guys, but I'm not taking a single photo today. It's my day. Don't follow us please. I love you guys. You're so good to us, but don't follow us. It's too much."
One of the fans pleaded with the actor to take just one selfie, but Ian Somerhalder was insistent, "No, that's not just one."
According to Gossip Cop, the girl started crying at one point.
"But you guys, don't follow us, please. I love you guys. Do not follow us. Okay? It's too much," he reiterated to the group.
Celebuzz said that Ian Somerhalder issued an apology that is not quite an apology when he addressed the 30-second video on his Instagram.
He wrote, "Looking at the world through my eyes and always trying to see it through yours. I see you. I see all of you and find great beauty in each set of eyes. Anyone who knows me understands that I spend a great deal of my life with our fans. Our audience."
"The people that make this show and ISF happen- all with hearts, minds bodies and souls. It blows my mind that a man who tried to love so much, a man asking for one day, just one day to have a quiet walk down the street is so upsetting to people. So much love to you all... Goodnight and thank you."
"So a further explanation, but no apology to the girl that he made cry? Such is the world of Ian Somerhalder," Celebuzz said.
CDL added, "Does Nina Dobrev's ex think people are stupid? Is this two-faced hypocrisy what the sole surviving star of The Vampire Diaries thinks fans will accept? At least have the respect not to tell people you 'love' them while you are slapping them in the face."
