Thanks for coming out and reading what we have to say, contributing, and sharing your love of GG! I think it's totally boss that we can all have a connection that way! A little piece of me...I am geek to the core, a small town girl trying to make it in the big bad city, but so far life has been groovy. I dig Gossip Girl because I find it to be completely original, it pushes all the limits it can for a show of it's kind. If you haven't read the books, I suggest you do. xoxo, ShorStarPosts by ShorStar:
Major Disappointment!
ok ok ok….what in the hell is going on with GG?
I have to say I was not impressed. I missed it when it aired originally, and attempted to watch it online…I could not do it. I got as far as Chuck kicking Dan out of the car and I turned it off and waited for today.
Again, what in the hell is going on? This episode jumped way ahead of where the last one left off! I mean yes, ok, Blair and Serena are head-to-head for the Queen B position and OH SURPRISE Serena wins. No, not a surprise, a given, c’mon!
Where is this Amanda chick? She was a simple ploy to lure everyone in, to expect some crazy woman who will spread havoc among the elite. Instead she lasted one episode to grab ratings, to totally make this week seem like little-to-no sense.
We did however see more into Jenny’s story which is getting pretty interesting! She is a brave little lady, and her father is wayyy too easy going. She has grown up alot too, she almost looks like should could knock Blair out. Anyone noticed as well that she has one mean “glare”. It truly is amazing how many times these girls scheme, knive, lie, and decieve each other, all in a 45 minute epsiode! The storyline that continues to develop with Jenny and Blair, I really enjoy. If they became friends…it could be dangerous. *Fingers Crossed*
Guess Who Made the Cover?
Hey everyone!!
So I was hitting up some stores on the way home tonight and came across the October 6th issue of Us Weekly and guess who has the cover story? Leighton Meester!!!
I was the first to blog about Leighton’s scandalous story of being born to a drug smuggler mom in prison…and now Us Weekly has a 6-page spread in the mag telling her story! I know, I know tabloids are fabricated and full of BS butttt I think it’s groovy she has almost all of the cover!!!
I haven’t read the article yet, I was too excited not to go ahead and tell you all. I have peaked through the article and it looks decent. It’s not a bashing article it is actually enlightening and supports her so far as I can tell. There are also some old school pics of Leighton in it too! SO GO GET YOURS!!!
I have to say I have not bought a trashy tabloid in a long time but I am not ashamed that the first one I get suckered into again is one with Ms. Meester gracing the cover! I mean really, who would pass by that on a newsstand and not pick it up? It is obviously GREAT press for Leighton but definitely does the show all sorts of favours as well! It’s the old saying that all press is good press!
Let’s gossip about the gossip!
enjoy!

I waited because…
Hello again!
I had to let the latest episode digest. It has taken me almost 4 days now to think about the latest episode before I actually put my thoughts into typing…
I don’t know what to think or how to feel. I like Blair being the Queen B. Serena seems like a whole “other” type of Queen B and I rather have Blair being the beeatch any day! There was something sacred and dare I say ’serene’ (lol) about Serena. She was innocent but still a part of the clique, and now from the looks of things she IS the clique! I dig her attitude, don’t get me wrong! She has every right to be fuming with anger from Dan and he deserved the bitter ending to the episode that he received…however I still say that Serena going back her “old ways” or just acting like a heinous beeatch (as previously mentioned) doesn’t know how to sit with me. Did I dislike the episode? hell no, it got better and better by the second.
Ed, and Chace, and Drew? Oh My!
Greetings all! It has been a lonnnnng time for me (life gets in the way of blogging some how)
Butt here I am and with some fun gossip as always!
It has been rumoured that 33 year old Drew Barrymore, and 23 year old Chace Crawford have been dating! it started with them being spotted together at a Kings of Leon concert in NYC and then hitting up the Saturday Night Live After Party together. At both events the insider could only claim that they “were not hiding their relationship”.
You think thats juicy and crazy?
Us Weekly reported soon after that Drew was making out with Ed Westwick instead?
Regardless…Barrymore is getting down with one of the two hotties! woot woot! go Drew!
you know you love me

Holy Crap!
Ahh, it has been so long! Hello!!!
Excuse the title of this blog…I honestly can’t think of anything better because the first thought I had after episode three was…”Holy Crap”. Sooooo much unfolded in this episode and most definitely set the path for whats to come this season. As also, juicy and scandalous…lets dig deeper, shall we?
I know I mentioned in a previous blog that I was against the reuniting of Dan and Serena…I still stand by that, however it was painful to see them break up (again) the way they did. It was really powerful (as cheeseball as that may sound). *sigh*
The Chuck, Blair, Lord scenario is utterly fantastic! The love triangle ordeal is just so bizarre, it is obviously difficult to see Chuck so dramatic and *ahem* down over Blair…when usually he is all over anything that moves, swooning over anything looking remotely female, but…yikes. It’s hard to deny the fact that Blair and Chuck have some really steamy chemistry. Not only that but the choice of lighting and the actual thought put into the sets for each scene really increase the intensity of the moment with Blair and Chuck. I dig it!
The lord is sweet and all but are any of you really buying into this whole ‘thing..with the lord’. Blair and Chuck need to stop being silly and just “do it”
Finally…Nate, Catherine, and Vanessa. So much heartbreak in one episode! I don’t know what killed me more, Serena and Dan, or Vanessa telling Dan about that INSANE dutchess and her feelings for Nate. I have never been a huge fan of Vanessa, but she touched my heart in this episode! On to Catherine…she is truly a nutbar! What is up with her creepy ‘I want to be with the under age kid and I am blackmailing him for sex’…eeek! This lady is going to keep the devious behaviour going for some pretty scandalous episodes!
I apologize if this sort of turned into a recap. Truth be told, I am still processing it all. I am so amped for the next epsiode…this show is genius!
I leave you with this,
love may fade with the season, but some friendships are year round
like you and me, you know you love me

I Like Surprises!
hello to all once again!
I have to start off by saying that I completely take back my comment in the blog I wrote about the first episode. The juiciness that is Nate and “The Duchess” is nothing like a “Pacey and Ms. Jacobs” scenario! It is getting more and more fantastic as the stories unfold, and perhaps more excitingly..intertwine in the most malicious ways possible!
Something feels fresh about this season, almost like its the calm before the storm for all the characters and the vicious fantasy land they live in, their reality. I am loving it all so far…except one thing
I am not at all for S and D being together. There is something about D that has put me off this season, I feel he is a little evil 
I can’t fully explain why. Maybe it is his “look”, or perhaps I am crazy. S and D immediately getting back together (possibly) must mean a backfire is soon approaching.
I can’t wait!
A new school year is going to bring the best of the best.
Scandal, love, hate, sex, friends, enemies, scheming, lying, cheating, disaster, perfection.
I for one am counting the days until episode 3!

Update on Leighton’s Scandalousness!
Hey Gang ShorStar here with an update on my past blog about Leighton Meester’s Born Behind Bars story…
The article can be found here, but in a nutshell the current “gossip” is that Leighton’s momma, Connie has been writing a script for the past 3 or 4 years about her child being born “behind bars”. However with the sudden release of this juicy gossip, Connie is in talks with her manager (ya…crazy lady has a manager of her own) has decided to change that “script” into a “memoir”.
IE: let me bank some money off of my daughters fame…
What a class act this woman is! She and Lynne Spears should have a Hollywood dinner stat…they would be a powerhouse if they play their cards right…
Be honest….what are your thoughts on this? all PR is good PR right?
either way…you know you love it

All The Cool Kids Are Doing It!
Hey all…I have been MIA for a couple of days…no excuse, the weather is gloomy and makes me lazy…
However I wasn’t too lazy to create a Facebook page dedicated to all of us and the website! hooray!
There are not a ton of people added yet and there is not a whole lot going on so we must take control and get involved to spread the word about us, Gossip Girl and all that is fantastic like that 
I know Facebook can be a bit annoying anymore but it is truly a great way to spread the word about the site and all the greatness it holds!
I will have an updated blog later today but this was my quick note for now…
PS- I LOVE MONDAYS woot woot, new GG!

Scandalous… the REAL Gossip
I am sure by now that most of you have seen the crap o’la that Perez has served up about Leighton Meester (Blair Waldorf of Gossip Girl). If not then consider the following…
“Star magazine is reporting that the fabulous Leighton Meester of Gossip Girl was born behind bars!
Apparently, the starlet was born while her mother was serving a federal prison sentence in Texas. Her mom was allowed to stay in a halfway house for the birth but had to return to prison on the day Leighton turned three months.
Leighton was raised by a relative while her momma did time for her role in a major drug-running ring! Leighton’s mom isn’t the only member of her family who’s done time. Her dad, granddad and aunt were all jailed for drug dealing.
We respect the up-and-comer for achieving all that she has, despite the craziness in her life. See, y’all, doesn’t matter where you come from! It’s what you make yourself to be!
Who would’ve guessed that a kid of drug dealers could pull off Park Avenue princess so well?!”
Any thoughts on this one gang? Lets remember that the main sources are Star and Perez, which to be quite frank are not legit and are all based around infamous he-say/she-say routines! It’s the old saying that any press is good press and I believe that to be true for Leighton! Besides whats in the past can stay in the past right?
In other GG news that is sure to impress…
The ratings for last nigthts premiere were apparently fantastic for the CW. As a Canadian I could care less how the ratings are for the CW but lets go through the details shall we?
After a really bad summer for the network, the second season premiere of Gossip Girl on Monday night got the show’s highest ratings ever for them in all key demographics.
GG was able to return with a 6% increase in adult viewers since its premiere last yer. And it was also up 10% among the network’s key demographics, people between 18-34.
If anything last nights Season 2 premiere only helped the CW actually get viewers to tune into One Tree Hill.
CONGRATS GG!
Catch you back here again, the gossip on gossip can’t be over yet!

“Damn that MothaChucker!”
Well hello all, we meet again to dish the dirt on the start of a brand new Gossip Girl season!
From the season 1 montage to the opening scene of Nate getting down and dirty…I had goosebumps down my spine from the get-go! I know Rob posted about some of the tunes played in the first episode but does anyone know what the song was that was played during the Season 1 montage in the beginning of the new episode? I am dying to find out…
I was loving every minute immediately and I barely have anything to complain about. I think it is truly fantastic that Eric is getting a larger role this season…or at least hopefully. He seems to be playing a role of more importance, but if I were him I would tell little Jenny to take a hike…there is something about Jenny that doesn’t sit well with me, her and Dan both came off as far too pathetic for me this episode…hopefully that does not stay true all season. I can’t totally buy into Dan being a “ladies man” or him having that confrontation with the two chicks from the white party…though it was classic to see two brightly coloured martinis get spilled all over him…I still couldn’t buy it.
