Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Chuck Bass

Ed Westwick makes the perfect Chuck Bass. Brooding, Gorgeous and the perfect antagonist, we begin to see the softer side of Chuck Bass this season, but only for a few moments.

He has been with Blair, He has been with Serena, He tried to get with Jenny – nothing tells us more about Chuck Bass than this. He obsesses about sex, money and parties… nothing is more important to Chuck Bass than these things, until this season, when he realizes that he is in love with Blair Waldorf. If only Gossip Girl could see this side of Chuck Bass. I only hope to see a more sensitive side to Chuck this season.

Serena is lucky to have a hottie for a stepbrother – In the future, I see them growing closer and Chuck becoming closer into the circle of Serena, Blair, and Nate. Chuck is a good guy (very deep down) and we are going to see more of this in the future.

Interestingly enough, I fell in love with Chuck in the books, where he is portrayed as gay. I couldn’t see anything farther from the Chuck Bass that we have come to known and love/hate. In the books it seems as if he is friendless, but on the television show - personally, I love having a face to go with the names, and Gossip Girl has a new number one fan!
