Here is an excerpt from the interview:

Dobrev added, “And the thing about my character specifically is that she was depicted in the books as kind of an insensitive bitch, when you think about it. She was the queen bee of the high school. In order for the audience to even want to root for her, they have to like her. So they made specific changes to address that. They wanted Elena to be nicer and more sympathetic. And the physical aspect, I’m not blond or blue-eyed by any means. I guess that just wasn’t that important to them. There was no discussion about me dyeing my hair or wearing contact lenses.”
