If you didn't know already I love the CW's hit show, Gossip Girl. I love it for the intrigue, the amazing outfits, the teenage drama, but most of all I love it for Leighton Meester's devilishly bitchy femme fatale with a heart, Blair Waldorf. Every time Leighton is on-screen, she steals the shot, whether it's with her far better acting or her amazing wardrobe or her witty comebacks, but she is just far and away the best one in the cast (besides the charming and rakish Ed Westwick). Now I know most of the media circus surrounding the show usually falls on Blake Lively or Chace Crawford, but to me it's all about Leighton. Even her red carpet persona takes the cake. Just look at the dress she sported yesterday to the CW Upfronts...the back is fabulous and somehow she looks 5-foot-10 even though she is a petite 5-foot-4. Talk about knowing how to work it. Plus, my favorite Leighton fact is that to join the GG cast she dyed her naturally blond hair dark brown! Now that's knowing how to get things done. And apparently the brown hair suits her. People Magazine just named her one of their 100 Most Beautiful People in the World. Team Leighton!
