Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev in Hot Pursuit of 3 Million Followers

Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev are both nearing 3 million followers on their respective Twitter accounts. "The Vampire Diaries" stars have almost always been close in numbers, but Nina is pulling ahead slightly and she's already asking her followers to help her reach the 3 million mark.

"3 is my moms (@paintaworld) favorite number! I've got 2.8M followers, Help me get to the 3 million mark (sic)," Nina tweeted on October 21. With Ian not far behind her at 2.7 million, the two could find themselves hitting 3 million around the same time and likely before the end of the year. Tons of Nina's fans retweeted her message, and she's already nearing the 2.9 million mark.

Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev both reached 2 million Twitter followers around the same time. It seems as though they are both equally popular and the number of followers that they have on Twitter proves that in many ways. At this rate, it does seem like Nina is going to hit 3 million before Ian, but you never know.

Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev Mix Business and Pleasure

Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev are both back to work on The Vampire Diaries but they most certainly find time to relax now and then. While their schedules have them working long, hard hours, they make sure to use their spare time wisely. "Shark week mania!! Timing couldn't be better.. I'm going through Olympic withdrawals (sic)," Nina tweeted on Monday. "Settling down after long day/night of #tvd Good night beautiful world—stay cool (sic)," Ian tweeted on Wednesday. It sounds like Ian and Nina both like to just stay in and kick back when they have a late night—or an early morning.

Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev are more than likely spending these nights in front of the television together. They have been dating for a couple of years now and while they are careful not to reveal too much about their private lives, fans believe that they spend a ton of time together—even if it's just at home hanging out.

Ian Somerhalder & Nina Dobrev: Paris Lovers

Life definitely isn't imitating art for Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder. Though she chose to be with his brother on their hit CW show, The Vampire Diaries, there is no other option for the smitten starlet. The beautiful couple appeared to be more in love than ever as they shared a tender moment in Paris yesterday.

Ian, 33, paused during a nighttime stroll to hold his girlfriend close and tenderly tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

He wrapped his arms around Nina, 23, as they stood on the French city street. The look of love in their eyes was only something that's typically seen on the big screen (or, as it were for these adorable TV stars, on the small screen).

Both wore matching dark ensembles: he in dark denim, a black polo shirt and a trilby hat, she in a black jacket, paisley top and heels. After their romantic time together, the two intend to celebrate Diaries producer Julie Plec's birthday. He tweeted earlier today: 'Amazing day here in Paris...Wow. Can't wait to see @julieplec and party down in the City of Lights.' It is just another stop on the loved-up couple's globetrotting trip.
