Interview with Taylor Kinney
by Nicole Oebel
Taylor Kinney plays Tyler Lockwood's very young and attractive uncle Mason on the "Vampire Diaries". In this interview he talks about his earlier gigs on the telenovela "Fashion House" and the medical drama "Trauma" and reveals some details about working on the "Vampire Diaries" and what makes this show so special.
...3. You play Mason Lockwood on "Vampire Diaries". When Damon killed Mason he said Mason wanted to die rather than live on with the curse. There was a lot of speculation around this comment. Do you think Mason really wanted to die at that point?
I think there was so much going on internally as far as the relationship and betrayal of Katherine, which he had just found out about. It was too much for him to take in so it was less of an admission to Damon and more of the struggle of being hurt by someone he loved. He wasn't afraid of Damon, he just didn't care to live anymore if he had to bear that pain. Under different circumstances Mason would have responded differently. The scene for Mason wasn't about a conflict between Mason and Damon, it was Mason seeing his world go black because of Katherine. She was the only thing on his mind those last moments.
