She pronounces it like it rhymes with cobra. See here or here. dissolvetalk 00:38, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So her last name uses the word "Dough" in the beginning? [[  Demon Hunter Rules ]] (talk) 17:03, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's a typical Bulgarian name. Bulgarians pronounce it ['do-bɾev]. The O is short and accented, pronounced much like the o in the English word "only". The E is short, not accented and pronounced like the e in "help". The R is pronounced like in Spanish, Italian, Russian, etc. The V in the end of the name tends to lose a bit of its sound, to the point that it sounds somewhere between V and F (note that Dobrev is the version of the name given to males. Dobreva is the version for females, where the V is fully pronounced, because it gets sounded by the following vowel A).

Repo! The Genetic Opera?

Under Dobrev's filmography, it says she was in Repo! The Genetic Opera in 2006 as a teen Zydrate addict. Repo! came out in 2008 and I haven't found any information to verify that she was in it (it's not on her IMDb page or on the cast list for Repo!). That should be deleted.
