VAMPIRE DIARIES IS THE LEADING MAN STEFAN OR DAMON

Ew.com poses the question: Who is the leading man in Vampire Diaries:

Stefan or Damon? Yes, I’m asking you to weigh in on yet another very frivolous question in EW’s fledgling ‘This or That’ series.

I love both Stefan (Paul Wesley, left) and Damon (Ian Somerhalder, right), but for different reasons. Stefan, of course, because he’s that good-guy vampire (a Bill type from True Blood, if you will) who wants to have a normal life and find love. He’s earnest and sweet. And that face, those eyes! He’s too damn cute.

And then there’s Damon, the bad-guy vampire (an Eric type from True Blood, if you will) who steams up the screen when he’s there — not just because he’s hot, but because he’s kinda nasty and mean, too.

Cute vs. hot. Sweet vs. nasty. Stefan vs. Damon.

My personal choice is Stefan but as for the leading man, I think it’s a tie. They’re both integral to the plot. And they both play their parts so damn well. I love them both.

Who is your personal pick? Who is your pick for leading man and why?
