Ian Somerhalder can write perfect penmanship with his feet

Turns out Ian Somerhalder is multi-talented.

In his recent Cosmo interview, Mr Somerhalder talked about his show ‘Vampire Diaries’ , girls, and hidden talent.

What’s the hardest part about playing a vampire?

Night shoots. We’re all up working until 7 a.m., then we sleep all day and go back to work at night. It kicks our asses.

How do you impress a girl?

I cook for her. They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. It’s the same way with women…or at least the ones I want to be with. And I once flew to Paris to see someone for a matter of hours — just to have lunch.

What’s a dating deal breaker for you?

Someone who hates animals. I work with the Humane Society a lot and have three rescue cats. I don’t care how hot a girl is — if she doesn’t like animals, it would be a major, major problem.

Describe the most fearless thing you’ve ever done.

Shark diving in South Africa. Being in an 8-by-8-foot cage suspended over 3,000 feet of water with huge sharks swimming around is intense.

Do you have any hidden talents?

I can write with absolutely perfect penmanship with my feet. If I broke both my arms, I could still write a girl a love letter using just my toes.

He’s 32.
