Just because we we're itching to get The Vampire Diaries spoilers scoop from the show's star Nina Dobrev at today's CW Upfronts, doesn't mean we overlooked her major hair change.

The actress debuted a new blond ombré hair color at the New York City event on Thursday, telling E! News' Kristin Dos Santos the makeover was for an upcoming role in The Final Girls. This is a huge change for the 25-year-old, who up until now has always stayed loyal to her signature long brunette locks. And while everyone knows ombré is the gateway to going all the way Goldilocks, we probably won't see the star become a blond bombshell. She dished that she will be dyeing it back as soon as she can.

On the red carpet Dobrev opted for an embellished Alberta Ferretti jacket with matching black skirt. Her golden Christian Louboutin pumps matched the ends of her newly dyed locks.

Although The Vampire Diaries wraps up it's fifth season tonight, we'll be seeing a lot more of Nina in the coming months as she promotes her summer comedy Let's Be Cops with Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr.
