‘The Vampire Diaries’ season 5: Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, and more voting news

It’s summer, and that means a few things in the TV world: Lots of repeats, and then also many opportunities for fans of the medium to vote on a variety of different things. This is especially true when it comes to “The Vampire Diaries.”

The first obvious one is the Teen Choice Awards, which recently announced their batch of nominations for the ceremony later this summer. The CW show was of course one of the leading recipients of love, with Paul Wesley joining Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev on the acting front with a nod.

Paul has celebrated his nomination with a post on Twitter, where he shared the following in gratitude for getting the attention in the first place:

“Thanks yet again! Flattered! @teenchoicenews @TeenChoiceGirl”

Here is one other thing to get excited about in the end that you are a big fan of the show, or just the Damon / Elena relationship: The pair are nominated for an MTVU Award for “Ship of the Year.” You can submit an entry here, and Delena are up against a couple from “The Hunger Games,” and ironically three same-sex TV ships in John Watson / Sherlock, Castiel / Dean (from “Supernatural”), and Stiles / Derek (“Teen Wolf”). We certainly know that every single one of these has a dedicated following, so it will be interesting to see what happens here as a result.

For those of you who are looking for more proper news when it comes to “The Vampire Diaries,” the season premieres at some point in October. Also, we’ll have much more news as it is announced.
