AnnaLynne McCord Talks "90210"

What's ahead for your character, Naomi, next season on "90210"?
I wish I knew! [Laughs] That would be great because I'm starting back in a month so it's very funny.
Our showrunner just gave birth to her very first child, a daughter, and she's been very busy with the pregnancy and we have not heard from her. [Laughs]
We don't know what we're doing! We discussed sort of at the end -- obviously with the finale that we had there was a discussion that kind of carried over into third season as far as how the finale was going to be shot and how we were going to deal with this particular issue [Naomi's sexual assault].
It's another issue -- as you can see, I like to be able to speak out about things and use the opportunity to be in the public eye and have notoriety in order to pump my issues, whatever they are.
With Naomi, she was raped in the last scene of the finale and for me it's very important to reach out to my fans and let them know if they experience any kind of physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual harassment, that they need to speak up about it.
I do think, given the conversation with the showrunner before the end of the season, that in the new season we're going to see what happens when you don't deal with it, when you don't speak up about it.
Naomi doesn't feel like she can, she feels like she put herself in a position where she doesn't have a voice.
As AnnaLynne McCord, I really wanted to stress that no matter what situation, no one deserves that to happen and if you can't talk to anyone, find a way to contact me -- not the people impersonating me [Laughs] -- actually contact me and I will do something about it.
I think that you're really going to see throughout season three that she's going to come from a different direction. I think you'll still see the Naomi who's flamboyant and covers her problems because she can't let anyone know that she's in pain or she's hurting.
That's the way Naomi is period, you know? That will still be a part of it, but it's going to be darker, she's going to have to cover more. You're going to see her act out -- we talked about a variety of different scenarios so I don't want to lead you in a direction and it be the wrong one -- but, we talked about her acting out, her being a klepto, we talked about a lot of different things.
I don't really know in what direction we're going to go, but you're going to see her take a darker turn.
