StarNews: Sophia Bush talks about how Wilmington, ‘One Tree Hill’ have evolved
After seven years playing fashionista Brooke Davis on the locally filmed TV series “One Tree Hill,” Sophia Bush has become a fixture in the Wilmington area. She can often be spotted hanging with friends in downtown restaurants and clubs, or putting her celebrity to good use at area fundraisers.
“I think people have lost sight of how important it is to give back,” Bush said recently at a fundraiser for the Wilmington Police Recreation Association Officer Down Memorial Wall.
Bush, 27, said her parents always encouraged charity work when she was growing up, and she wants to pass that encouragement on to other young people.
And she certainly can count a lot of young people among her fans. Strong support by young women is the biggest reason “One Tree Hill” has stayed on the air so long. We recently caught up with Bush, who will step behind the camera to direct the Nov. 9 episode, to reflect on seven years of “One Tree Hill.”
Q: So you’ve been in Wilmington seven years now …
A: It’s really my home away from home at this point. Everybody knows my coffee order or what glass of wine I’m going to have before I’ve even sat down. You become part of a larger family living there that long, and it’s been a joy. Those of us who are out there now are incredibly tight.

I thought she once said she was a journalism major, now it’s doctor and she would be doing her residenceLOL, make up your mind.

She should be the next president since she’s apparently better than anyone else in the world.

LOL, her story changes all the time. LULZ. When did pre-med students take up journalism? Medical School acceptance is rigourous and competitive so I doubt she would have ever even made it there but still stop changing your story in every interview. You make yourself look foolish.

Yeah, didn’t she want to do journalism?? WTF?
Ps. This is not a bash, I love Sophia just thought that was weird.

This show tonight was not that great. Come on Haley and Nathan need to quit acting like an old married couple this is ridiculous. Kissing on the forehead come on, they need to have some great scenes. It is getting old that they are not acting like they are in love.
