“It’s important for me to let the fans know that they have truly helped to keep Lexi alive,” the friendly Kebbel tells Zap2it. “I love the character deeply, and [executive producer] Julie Plec loves the character, and we are doing the best we can to continue keeping her alive.
“The exciting thing about Lexi is that you never know when she’s going to pop up … but she absolutely can. And most likely will. We’ve had some talk [about Lexi possibly appearing on the upcoming spinoff 'The Originals'], but that’s uncharted territory, so they’re still figuring out how they want to handle that.”
Hosting “The Vampire Diaries Rehash” has helped Kebbel land her summer job for The CW, a network she’s worked for a lot, also given the time she spent on “90210,” “Life Unexpected” and (during the pre-CW era of the WB Network) “Gilmore Girls.”
She presides over the dating show “Perfect Score,” premiering Tuesday, July 16. Though she’s entering the reality genre as the host who helps guide two friends through choosing their ideal partners — with a $50,000 prize on the line — Kebbel insists she intends to continue acting while establishing herself in the other realm.
“I’m very committed to doing both,” she confirms. “I’m not leaving one for the other. It’s just broadening my horizons, and encompassing all aspects of who I am and what I want to be doing in my career. I did have people in Hollywood saying things like, ‘You can’t do that. It’s confusing to this town.’ Well, what does that even mean?

The Vampire Diaries starts filming its Season 5 July, 8th!
Executive Producer Julie Plec sat down with Hollywoodlife to talk about Damon and Elena’s future and more Season 5 related stuff;
1. Damon & Elena’s ‘New Relationship’
Now that Elena (Nina Dobrev) has officially chosen Damon (Ian Somerhalder), Julie said they’ll start a “new relationship” together, and we’ll get to see them “try to make it work.”Of course, their relationship will be affected by the “villain in their midst they don’t know is a villain at the beginning.”
2. The ‘Mystery’ Of Stefan & Silas
Speaking of that unknown villain, Julie said fans will really enjoy Stefan’s doppelganger story line, which will allow Paul Wesley to flex his acting muscles as two completely different characters.“[There will be] a pretty cool mythology that will carry on in terms of Silas, and the mystery of his past — 1,000 or 2,000 years ago,” she said.
3. There’s Still Hope For ‘Klaroline’
Despite two major obstacles standing in the way of Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Caroline (Candice Accola) getting together — not only are they on separate shows, but Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) is also pregnant with Klaus’ baby — Julie said we shouldn’t consider ‘Klaroline’ to be a thing of the past:Hayley is, by no means, the Cinderella in the Klaus love story. Hayley is a girl who’s pretty tough, fiery, independent … a survivor in her own right who got drunk, had sex and got knocked up. She’s going to have her own journey. She’s not really meant to be a threat to Klaus’ love life.
4. A ‘Freakin’ Pissed’ Human Katherine
Deciding to make Katherine the vampire who took the cure was no easy task for Julie and her writing team — but it’ll certainly be even less easy for Katherine, who will struggle to cope with suddenly being human again.“We were just in the room the other day talking about the first time she catches a cold — just how freakin’ pissed she’s going to be about that,” Julie joked.
5. Jeremy Gilbert: Born Again
Fans were thrilled when Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) returned to the land of the living on the fourth season finale — but don’t expect his return to be a smooth one. Julie said there will be plenty of new obstacles as the hunter-turned-ghost-turned-human heads back to school.“What the hell cover story is that going to be?” she said. “How’s he going to explain that? He had a memorial service! There were flyers!”

Question: What’s in store for Jeremy next season on The Vampire Diaries, now that he’s back among the living? —Chloe
Ausiello: As EP Julie Plec notes, “Nobody knows the truth” about his resurrection — specifically, that Bonnie essentially sacrificed her life for his. As a result, “There’s going to be some explaining to do and it’s not necessarily going to make his return to his old life very easy.”Question: Will Claire Holt (Rebekah) appear in any Vampire Diaries episodes next fall? Or is she going straight to The Originals? —Justine
Ausiello: “We do have the ability to use Rebekah on either show in the beginning,” says Plec. ” We will see when we start writing how much of her we’ll see before she heads off to New Orleans.” One scenario has the new season of TVD picking up at the tail end of Rebekah and Matt’s European vacation. “When we get back, we might see [them] still on their trip,” shares Plec, adding, “When Matt gets back to Mystic Falls, his whole world will have changed. I can’t wait to see what comes out of that adventure and how he re-adapts to life at Mystic Grill.” (For more TVD Season 5 spoilers click here.)
