Chuck Bass One Year Older, No Wiser

In honor of Chuck Bass' birthday on Friday, we stayed up for 36 hours and then took two flight attendants home. Just kidding! But On Location Tours' Chuck Bass Birthday Bash took advantage of an unlikely patch of sunlight Friday to raise Magnolia Bakery cupcakes to their hero and hold an impromptu Michael Jackson dance party on the steps of the Met.

Blair didn't send over a bottle of bubbly, but a Serena lookalike won the costume contest, which must have been very disappointing to the sole scarf-wearing swain on the tour. (Call us, mystery man!)

The real Chuck Bass (er, Ed Westwick) might be hanging around Gramercy today if reports of filming in the posh neighborhood are true. But Westwick himself has been in town for a while—he just celebrated his 22nd birthday "privately" with onscreen costar/offscreen girlfriend Jessica Szohr at Lucky Strike Lanes in New York (624-660 W. 42nd). And that's how we know he's not his character; Chuck Bass would never stoop to bowling despite the potential awesomeness of the shoes.
