Nina Dobrev recently came out about being bullied at an LGBT event. Afterwards, the actress broke her diet for some In and Out Burger. The TVD actress combined fast food and fashion, when she dined out in her Elie Saab couture gown
Dobrev recently spoke at the LGBT’s Trevor Live benefit for the The Trevor Project hotline. At the event, the Bulgarian beauty revealed that she was bullied as a child:
"I had a couple of awkward stages. Now we have hair and makeup. I pay professionals. But you didn't have professionals when you were grade three."
Dobrev later elaborated on some of the specifics about why she was teased:
"I had a chunky face,I had a phase where I cut my hair like a boy. Kids will find anything to pick on you for whether it's true or not because it makes them feel better and bigger and it isn't until you're the victim that you realize that it's not fun and it's not cool. Until you learn, you can hurt a lot of people."
Dobrev recently defended her pregnant friend, Teresa Palmer, who was being bullied for walking outside without makeup on, tweeting:
"Im sry that ppl r so unhappy W/themselves that they need to be nasty toward others.Congrats-Can't wait 2 meet your little angel! @tez_palmer."
After the event, Dobrev was feeling a bit peckish and decided to treat herself to some In and Out Burger, and she didn’t take the time to change. The 24-year-old actress posted a picture of herself at the fast food resteraunt in her Elie Saab couture gown on her WhoSay page, writing, "I couldn't help it. I had to...Gown or not."
