For all five of our readers who follow Gossip Girl, Details magazine shot a beautiful cover of the show's leading men, along with an in-depth interview with each. To make a long story short: Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford totally love each other in a not-gay-bromance kind of way (maybe), Penn Badgley is kind of an ass and thinks he's better than you, and all the boys love Christian Bale. We knew we loved these guys for a reason.
But the part of the story that really pulls at our heartstrings is when Chace details how he has to overcome tough obstacles: "Perez Hilton says I have 'gayface.' So on top of everything else, I have to overcome gayface." Stay strong, Chace. You are a true inspiration to all Americans.

When I received my invitation to Gotham magazine's issue release party in honor of cover girl (and Gossip Girl) Leighton Meester, I squealed a bit: I've been addicted to the show since the first episode, and I simply adore Leighton's character, Blair Waldorf. But there's always been something about Meester that seems a bit off, and the party — held at NYC's Marquee — didn't do much to change my perception of her. CONTINUED »

Drew Barrymore has gone where every Upper East Side tween would empty out their trust funds to go: The actress reportedly made out with both Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford in a matter of days.
Although sources shot down rumors that Drew and Chace were making out at a Kings of Leon concert, there is photographic evidence of the other Gossip boy shoving his tongue down Barrymore's throat. The two also displayed their affections at an SNL after-party this past weekend. Ah, romance.

Julia Roberts and Dave Matthews hosted a Stand Up for a Cure concert last night at Madison Square Garden. The sold-out show, which hosted celebrities ranging from Lindsay Lohan to, erm, Dina Lohan, benefited lung cancer research.

When Miley Cyrus was chosen to host the Teen Choice Awards, which was filmed last night and will air tonight, we're unsure whether or not the producers expected her to hog the spotlight as much as she obviously did. Judging from the pictures, she treated the entire awards show like one of her infamous YouTube videos, including her BFF Mandy in most of her bits and ruining a perfectly good LL Cool J performance.
In other news, Dwight graced the show with his presence, Mariah continued to use a glitter microphone, Arcuhleta's dad still won't go away — and when did Chace Crawford become so good-looking?

Remember when the gossip columns were filled with plants about Chace Crawford — the Gossip Girl star whose publicist wasn't pleased that he was being labeled a big 'mo — and his female relations?
Then rumors started that Crawford and co-star/roommate Ed Westwick shared more than just scripts?
Enter this obvious plotline:

Gossip Girl costars and roommates Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford can’t get enough of one another’s company:
The twosome showed up at a recent show by Brit popsters The Ting Tings, and a spy says “they were never more than a foot apart. It was freaky.

Vitaminwater got in on the MLB All-Star Week parties last night and felt the best way to promote the brand was by inviting the classiest of celebrities, which included Aubrey O'Day and the Naked Cowboy. The event also attracted some leftover guests from the Batman premiere who just wanted to be photographed. If that's not getting more people to drink the beverage, we don't know what will.

Are Gossip Girl cast mates - and real life roomies - Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick secret gay lovers? That’s the alleged word:

Carrie Underwood, explaining what Chace Crawford probably saw in her:
I don't consider myself sexy … I'm kind of a nervous person in general. I'm socially awkward. I'm not tall and sensuous. I usually wear sweats everywhere I go. Oh, and I burp a lot.

This picture is neither necessarily gay nor necessarily straight. It is what it is: Chace Crawford, of Gossip Girl, performing fellatio on a long neck Bud. You can draw your own conclusions.

Tyra Banks and some of her top models attempted to show off how to smile with your eyes at the CW Network 2008 Upfronts last night in NYC. It's safe to say Tyra is still the only one who has mastered that concept, but we applaud Anya (second from right) for making a solid attempt. The rest seem to have just given up hope.

Scarlett Johansson wasted no time in debuting her engagement ring from fiancé Ryan Reynolds at last night's Costume Institute Gala at NYC's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Pretty much every celebrity you can imagine was in attendance (except for Reynolds), and 95 percent of the wardrobe choices made our heart cry.

DOWNGRADE "Blogger Emily Brill spotted Gossip Girl’s Chase Crawford and celebridaughter Rumer Willis out partying together Thursday night (they were also seen flirting at a GQ party last December). … Is Bruce and Demi's edgy spawn just the rebound Chace needs to get over wholesome ex-girlfriend Carrie Underwood?"

What's up with the inappropriate Gossip Girl promotion? Between the steamy OMFG sex scene ads and this stripped-down cover of the latest issue of New York magazine, we have a hard time believing any parents will be happy letting their school-age children watch the show tonight when it comes back from hiatus.
