Thanks to Philomina for the heads up.
1.When you were cast for "The Vampire Diaries" were you reminded of your time on the cult TV show "Buffy"? What is different in working on a vampire show now from what it was then?
No, I wasn't reminded of "Buffy", actually. Probably because, tonally, they feel like such different shows to me. VD feels a little more serious, where as "Buffy" was more humorous and tongue n cheek, I think. Plus, the characters are just so different. Emily is very internal and still , with like a un-graspable water quality. Where Kendra was very physical, emotionally inexperienced and solid. But I suppose an answer to the question could be where special affects and social media is right now vs. then... there really wasn't a huge difference for me in the vampire genre aspect, though.
2. Is it true you were originally cast for Cordelia Chase? Did you watch the show and sometimes wondered how your Cordelia would have been different?
Yes, but I was committed to another show at the time. And, no I didn't think about how my Cordelia would have been different because Charisma's portrayal was wonderful. She was the perfect Cordelia. And, might I add - was lovely to work with.
3. Emily Bennett on "The Vampire Diaries" is a powerful witch. Which of her powers do you find the most dangerous and / or beguiling: the mind control, telekinesis, precognition...?
Well, I think that all of her powers are awesome, beguiling and dangerous. But "most" - mind control.
4. Your "Pretty Little Liars" character Maya died last season, but we've been seeing you in a few flash backs and video sequences since. Is there more to come?
The last video will be in the season 3 finale.

I almost forgot she was in Buffy.Funny she still plays a teen so many years after that...
ReplyDeleteWe want Maya back and shes NOT DEAD.
ReplyDeleteBianca Lawson is truly a flawless person.
ReplyDeleteWe love Bianca Lawson as Maya on Pretty Little Liars, and we all hope
ReplyDeletethat she will return because Maya & Emily are beautiful, sexy,
Brown skin girls with long Black hair, who are the perfect Lesbian
couple with unbelievable chemistry as well as eye sex; they are truly
Soul-Mates who belong together.
When they are together
in any scene, you can feel the electricity between them. Emily is like a
kid in a Candy Store when she is around Maya, and Maya is the same
around Emily.
Emily being with Paige or Samara is
totally wrong, and there is zero chemistry with Paige and it comes
across clearly on the screen.
I am totally with you! Maya is not dead, and they have done nothing to prove it.
ReplyDeleteIf anything, most of the evidence seems to point to Paige being the person who caused all of the trouble between Emily & Maya out of jealousy, since we know that Paige is psychotic and crazy.
Everything also seems to point to the fact that Maya is still alive, and that she should return to be with Emily.
