Jan. 9 (UPI) -- "It's a good thing it's not awkward," Nina Dobrev said with a faux-awkward glance at her onscreen lover and real-life ex-boyfriend Ian Somerhalder at the People's Choice Award on Wednesday.
The two had stepped onstage to pick up their much-deserved award for "Best Chemistry," which they managed to maintain for months onscreen after their breakup last May.
