    GALLERY LINKS: We now know what Penn Badgley sees in Zoe Kravitz besides her begin gorgeous and talented. The Gossip Girl guy chatted with Celebuzz editor Amber James exclusively at the Rock & Republic For Kohl’s Fahsion Week show, and opened up about his taste in women and his on and off screen love life. Swoon! When asked about what he finds attractive in the opposite sex, the actor answered: “That is such a hard question to answer… Someone with confidence and command of her sexuality.” Penn has dated two fashionistas in his day, Blake Lively and now Zoe, so we had to ask: What style does he find most attractive on females? He answered candidly, “It’s hard to nail just one down, but if her style is original and unique, it denotes confidence and individually. Honestly, I like it all depending on who it is.” As for his go-to style, “Black jeans, a shirt and a jacket. It’s pretty simple.” Now for the Gossip Girl scoop! Though they haven’t rekindled their romance for quite some time, will we ever see Dan (Penn) and Serena (Blake) together again? The actor joked, “There is probably no hope for those two. (laughs) … Actually, we only get scripts week to week, so I don’t know what’s in store for Dan or the rest of the characters.” Source, thanks to @roughrider92 It’s always difficult figuring out Valentine’s Day plans, and it’s even tougher when your girlfriend is super famous. This is the dilemma Penn Badgley faces dating actress Zoë Kravitz. At the Rock & Republic for Kohl’s runway show this past week, Penn told reporters that his V-Day plans “will be stunning and unique and never seen before, unprecedented.” What are they exactly, though? “I actually don’t know yet,” Penn added laughing. When asked if he actually liked the holiday, he said, “I think it’s a Hallmark holiday; however, I celebrate it.” Because girls make him? “Basically,” he confirmed. His girlfriend, Zoë, had spilled previously to E! News, “No, I won’t be home alone. I don’t know what we’re going to do. We do want to do something kind of romantic: go to dinner or something, but probably just keep it quiet.” When asked if he was a planner, Zoë said, “I guess we’ll find out.” Well, we obviously found out that he’s winging the holiday this year! We hope Penn comes up with something “unprecedented” by the big day. Source, thanks to @roughrider92! |

   GALLERY LINKS: Badgley was feeling it, too. We asked whether playing Jeff Buckley in the upcoming biopic has rubbed off on his style at all. “It’s about the quieter, subtler, harder-to-express parts of that lifestyle,” he said thoughtfully, before adding: “But then at the same time, I’m growing my hair out just for shits and giggles, so maybe.” Source, thanks to @ChandlerDillon! |

    GALLERY LINKS: Happy Gossip Girl Day, everyone! Yes, that exists now. To mark the occasion, made official this morning by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg at a ceremony on the Gossip Girl set in Queens, N.Y., EW caught up with executive producers Stephanie Savage and Josh Safran to get the intel on Monday’s 100th episode of Gossip Girl. Now, much has already been said about the episode. It’s Blair’s wedding day, Georgina’s back, and there are love triangles upon love triangles about to come to a head. But arguably one of the episode’s most important moments, says Safran, has yet to be spoiled. (He checks online!) “You have to see [the last few minutes] to believe them. I really think they will take people’s breath away,” he says. “Someone asked on Twitter, ‘Will we smile or cry at the end of the episode?’ And I said, ‘It will be more like a gasp.’” Elaborating, while still playfully coy, Savage explains that the final moment was something that “had to happen” in the 100th episode. “That’s one of the fun things about having a mature show in season 5, you feel like you can really have some fun. In the first couple of seasons, you feel like you have to keep certain things very guarded and protected because the hope is that you’ll have to make them last a long time,” she says. Safran adds: “What we can say is that why we made that decision will become clear with future episodes because, obviously, you’ll learn more about why that has happened, how that has happened. You see, it was such an easy decision… It wasn’t something we belabored over or had long discussions about. It really wasn’t.” A more contested issue, as Safran has told EW before, was the outcome of the love entanglements (Chuck and Blair, Dan and Serena, Dan and Blair, Blair and Louis…), something fans will get a taste of in Monday’s episode. “Well, obviously [the end] changes things. And what happens in the episode for Blair, Dan, Chuck, and Serena will become a whole new world for them. Obviously, we pushed the 100th episode as a special episode — a huge wedding, a royal wedding — but it’s also the 13th episode of the season. So, the season arc does continue,” says Safran. “The 100th is a turning point, but it’s a turning point connected to everything that was happening before.” While the episode set to air will certainly have big moments for the characters, off screen the showrunner duo found themselves thinking long ago about the turning point that led to their big moment today. Before Gossip Girl had filmed a single frame, the pair recalls being shown a small soundstage in Los Angeles and were told it was where they’d film their show. Looking at the diminutive space, they knew even then that it’d never work. “I don’t know if we would have ended up making the show if we didn’t know we were making something we were proud of,” Savage reflects, “and something that reflected the vision we had from the beginning, which was very much about shooting on location in New York.” Creating iconic Gossip Girl images — say, for example, the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where much of season 1 took place, would have been impossible. “Oh my gosh, we would have have to find something in, like, Toronto,” laughs Safran, as Savage adds, “like the steps of the CN tower!” |
