Hey, does one of those models look familiar? "The Serena Also Rises" at our Gossip Girl Map.

Previously: Blair found out her boyfriend was sleeping with his stepmom; Queen Serena re-ascended thanks to a little behind-the-scenes work from her stepbrother. Man, stepfamilies! Paying off since 2008!

It's fashion week on "Gossip Girl" and it's got some ladies in a lather. Eleanor Waldorf is showing downtown and Jenny hasn't been to school in two weeks because she's been working on the show. But Blair hates having her around, so she arranges for Rufus to find out--right before the big day. Oh no! Who will line up the models? And how will Eleanor get any attention when the Marc Jacobs show is being held at the same time?]]> egw 2008-09-30T09:20:37-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2008/9/23/83556/9736

Open up "The Ex-Files" with our Gossip Girl Map.

Previously: Nate became a gigolo for his family and Vanessa wanted out; Blair challenged Marcus to put up or shut up, and Serena and Dan broke up again. (How did Gossip Girl get that picture from inside the elevator? Man, she is creepy.)

Senior year! So who wants to go back less: Serena and Dan, fresh from their breakup? Jenny, who knows she'll be the victim of Blair's posse, because every girl is either a project or a victim? Or Erik, whose problems everyone seems to have forgotten about?

But it's the kid who doesn't go to school who ultimately has the worst day ever. When Catherine the Duchess tries to buy off Vanessa, she goes to her house (located at 613 E. 71st Street, comfortably in the East River) and gets an eyeful:]]> egw 2008-09-23T09:30:32-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2008/7/28/23115/2454

Did we attend the "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York solely to catch a glimpse of Blake Lively and Penn Badgley? Well, we were hopeful! Their on-screen romance as Serena and Dan may be over, but Lively and Badgley are rumored to be more in love than ever when they're out of character. Lacking a "Gossip Girl" shooting schedule, we figured any boyfriend worth his salt would catch his girlfriend starring as the sporty one out of four best friends.

We were not disappointed! As Lively came up the aisle just before the movie started, Badgley stood in the middle of the orchestra section and watched her approach. He gallantly crawled over a whole row of seats clutching his popcorn to give her a kiss. The cheap seats squealed. And far be it from us to be homewreckers, but may we just say: The cheekbones are real, and they are spectacular!

We didn't see much of the red-carpet trawling, but Lively's costars Leighton Meester, Chace Crawford, Matthew Settle and Ed Westwick all showed up for the flick, whose prequel was made when "Gossip Girl" was still a book series and which was shot the July before the series premiere. Badgley was missing from the red-carpet photos, though, which suggests he snuck in to save Lively a good seat instead.

"Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" opens August 6, and if you liked the first one, you'll like this one.

We spotted E getting cozy with his TV mom and Little J at the ballet, and now The CW Source reports the "Gossip Girl" cast is taking on more movie projects than their characters take expensive vacations.

Blake Lively has been filming in Connecticut with Robin Wright Penn, but on screen she's in Greece with her three best friends in "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" (out in August).

Matthew Settle, who plays her ex's dad, Rufus, is in Austin, Texas playing a bad ex-boyfriend to Joey Lauren Adams in the comedy "The Ex-Terminators."

And mysterious Chuck (Ed Westwick) is filming the dreaded sequel to "Donnie Darko," "S. Darko," in an undisclosed location. Hey, let's go look for him in our seersucker blimp! Martinis for everyone!

They may be so over as of this week's "Gossip Girl," but co-stars Penn Badgley and Blake Lively are nothing like bitter exes in real life--they recently took a vacation together to the Paraiso de la Bonita on the Riviera Maya, where they smooched in the pool like Dan and Georgina in Queens.

The much-bandied-about fact that Badgley and Lively were once home-schooled together is not the only thing that makes this photo creepy.

If you're worried about going into "Gossip Girl" withdrawal after next week's season finale, mark August 8 on your calendar and catch Lively in "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2," a flick about four best friends in the 'burbs whose preceding film she made long before the CW got her. It also costars former Gilmore Girl Alexis Bledel, Amber "Joan of Arcadia" Tamblyn and America Ferrera of "Ugly Betty"--a veritable television Who's Who.
