We caught up with Diaries executive producer Julie Plec at the PaleyFest Fall TV Preview on Monday in LA, where she told us that the girls weren’t flashing passing motorists while on a bridge as police alleged, but “It was a photo shoot. They are four great, smart, respectful girls" who did nothing wrong.
“Oops,” said the creator and executive producer of the show Kevin Williamson. “They shouldn’t have been there, I guess.”
