Malese Jow to Play a Love Interest on The Vampire Diaries

Malese Jow has landed a role on The Vampire Diaries.

The actress, who has appeared on Hannah Montana and The Secret Life of the American Teenager, will play Anna; she's described by producer Kevin Williamson as "Jeremy's smart, new friend."

Following Vicki's death last week, we're pretty sure Jeremy needs more than a mere friend.

“We’ll see how it goes,” Williamson told TV Guide Magazine. “Jeremy certainly turns her head. She gets a crush. It starts in one place and maybe ends someplace else.”

That sounds like The Vampire Diaries we know and love!
