USA Today Goes Behind the Scenes of Gossip Girl, Writes Inane Commentary to Pictures

Behind the Scenes of Gossip Girl

The CW'S Gossip Girl takes over-the-top teen drama to the next level. USA TODAY is on set for a behind-the-scenes look at the sex-filled, fashion-forward drama.

I believe these are the follow-up/companion to this article I posted yesterday.




Real Life Friends: For Leighton Meester, left, and Blake Lively and other stars, it's like college, "plus a lot of cameras and beautiful designer clothes," Lively says.


What's with the dish? Serena (Lively), Chuck (Ed Westwick) and the rest of the gang get the scoop from Gossip Girl's blog. What do you mean "what is with the dish?" I THINK YOU MEAN "WHAT'S THE DISH" if you are implying Chuck cares what Serena is reading. Which he doesn't.


Blair's flair for fashion: Meester, centre, hangs out on the Long Island City set. To create a style for Meester's character, costume designer Eric Daman studied how Upper East Side private school girls "trick out" uniforms with the latest bags and shoes. LOL at "'tricked out'". What is this, Pimp My Ride? Also, Blair and Chuck are totally matching on purpose. Look at those orange footless tights!


"A weird parallel: Lively is a target for rumors off-screen, too. One links her to co-star Penn Badgley. IDK who they are attributing that quote to, or why the quotations were needed.


Home, sweet home: The interior of the Humphrey's apartment, where siblings Dan and Jenny Humphrey (Penn Badgley and Taylor Momsen) reside, has all the trappings of a real abode--minus the ceiling. And the bathroom. Don't forget the bathroom. Or the asbestos


Can you hear me now? Lively gets some talk time, and down time while she hangs out with a crew member. That comma was unnecessary, and isn't there anything else people can write when someone's on the phone besides CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? Lazy.


All about the accessories: Westwick has the preppy schoolboy look down with his punchy orange coat, striped tie, and sleek bag. Apparently they used up their comma quota with that extra comma in the previous blurb, so I put in the Oxford comma they were missing after "tie" for them. You're welcome, USA TODAY.

IAWTC. I didn't know it was an SS08 colour, though Ralph Lauren did do some HIDEOUS fluorescent yellow (I think nylon) pieces for his SS08 collection.

Too much orange :((( My eyes are burning.

SO EXCITED.

And I love it when magazines/newspapers like to stay on top of the current lingo. Word of advice: don't market for the youth generation, they'll eventually come to you.

oh, god. Even with Ed/Chuck dressed like an orange tootsie roll pop and Leighton/Blair's Dick Tracy For Schoolgirls getup, they're still so pretty/sexy/awesome.

I'm am so jealous--there are just no words. And I'm afraid that I would have been knocking people over to get a chance to ~accidentally~ grope molest brush up against him.

I wish I had Blair's and Serena's entire wardrobe.
[info]leelah 18th-Apr-2008 05:56 pm (UTC)
it tooks me like 5 seconds to figure out that was a purse on that table...
[info]balcarin 18th-Apr-2008 05:57 pm (UTC)
Yeah me too. I thought that at first it was some sort of crockery because the title was "What's with the dish" and I was like IS THAT A DISH???
[info]soolegit 18th-Apr-2008 06:19 pm (UTC)
Haha, same
[info]chaotic_whim 19th-Apr-2008 12:55 am (UTC)
Yeah, it's Burberry's new Metal Studs Warrior bag and it's ugly as shit. It'd be pretty effective against rapists, I guess, since it's studded and all. XD
[info]morninwoodyy 18th-Apr-2008 05:56 pm (UTC)
