Gossip Girl Updates

Gossip Girl star Blake Lively celebrated her 21st birthday with a flapper-themed party at the New York Palace Hotel in NYC on Sept. 6.

“I love to plan parties,” Blake tells Life & Style. “That would be my career if I weren’t an actress.”

Blake’s high school friends and family were among the crowd, along with Gossip Girl co-stars Chace Crawford, Leighton Meester, Jessica Szohr, Ed Westwick, Connor Paolo and Michelle Trachtenberg. And of course, her boyfriend (and co-star) Penn Badgley was there too. James Franco was also on hand, and crooner Michael Bublé even sang “Happy Birthday” to Blake.

There's always a first time for everything, and this is our first time NOT being able to mock anything. Heck, we're even green with envy. The party, the cake, and the cast are gorrrgeous!

But we're not BitchTalkers if not bitchtalking!

Here's what we found in the upcoming episode of Gossip Girl.

Hate to break it to you, but your eyes aren't fooling ya.

That's Chace Crawford aka Nate Archibald shooting a kissing scene with miss cungkring Taylor Momsen aka Jenny Humphrey!

*sigh* The storyline begins to sound more and more like porn.
