Nina Dobrev is a Canadian actress and model. She is known for starring on the series The Vampire Diaries, and in the films Dog Days, The Final Girls, and Run This Town.
Nina was born in Sofia, Bulgaria, to Bulgarian parents, Michaela (Radeva) and Konstantin Dobrev. When she was two, her family moved to Toronto, Ontario, Canada, where she was raised. She is fluent in English, French, and Bulgarian.

Nina once stated “I’m a Gypsy, what can I say…” It is not clear if she was referring to being of the Romani ethnic group, or to the term “gypsy” as it is sometimes used to refer to lifestyle habits. It appears that Nina often refers to herself as a “gypsy” in this latter way.
Two of Nina’s grandparents are named Aleksandr and Efi.
i have spent many summers in greece since i was 9 months old and i have met many bulgarian people who came there for vacays as well. anyway i have a bulgarian friend in particular who looks exactly like her, not that beautiful of course lol, but she’s dark features as she does and has no romani blood in her. so i dont get whats wrong with her being and looking perfectly bulgarian.
She defenetly looks Gypsie. In bulgaria their are millions of gypsie’s. Soon it will be a country full of them.
I see a little Gypsy/Roma in her. She doesn’t look typical European I mean she’s far from Swedish. She’s gorgeous though.
nina’s not part gypsy and neither of you have been to bulgaria
her look is typical there
and you’re a fucking idiot for thinking all europeans look swedish
dumb asses galore on this site
lol too funny. like i said b4 ignorance unbelievable!
you think all europeans look swedish?
you are by far the most ignorant poster i have ever encountered on this site
BTW, not all swedish people look “swedish”
How the fuck doesn’t she look European?
Obviously you haven’t seen many Slavic people as many of them have a similar facial structure to Nina Dobrev, and being tanned does not make you a gypsy.
Unless you know what you’re talking about, i suggest you don’t make idiotic comments like that.
Clearly Swedish
Ethnic arent we all *supposed to originally come from Africa* That is what most say on here all the time anyway,Some left and adapted to different climates and surroundings so that would mean we have all been around the same amount of time wouldnt it.You comment is confusing,
Yeah, all homo-sapiens originally come from Africa. Fact.
It is not a fact, it’s a theory. It was disproven months after the Human Genome Project aired on tv.
