At the Gossip Girl party in the Hamptons over the weekend, Blake Lively dished on what's next for Serena -- and it sounds juicy (older pals, possibly revisiting things with Dan)!
Then Penn Badgley told us that Dan will be getting in touch with his "dark side" (wait, Dan has a dark side?) this season:
There's more to come from the rest of the cast!
Eonline reports that Gossip Girl received a whopping 14 Teen Choice nominations, including Best Drama, Best Breakout Show, and Choice TV Actor/Actress.
It's true that GG is everywhere on the list of nominations. All three female leads (Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, and Taylor Momsen) are up for Best Breakout Female Star, and we were especially excited to see Ed Westwick's Chuck Bass nominated for Choice TV Villain along with Smallville's Michael Rosenbaum. But One Tree Hill also earned its fair share of nominations, including Choice TV Drama, Hilarie Burton and Sophia Bush for Choice TV Actress and Chad Michael Murray for Choice TV Actor. Our complaint: where are James Lafferty and Bethany Joy Galeotti? They deserve some noms, too!
Other shows represented include America's Next Top Model (Cycle 10 winner Whitney is up for Choice TV Female Reality Star, Tyra is up for Choice TV Personality, and the show itself is in the running for Choice TV: Reality Beauty and Makeover), Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious (for Reality Music Competition), and Smallville (Choice TV Show Action/Adventure, Choice TV Actor/Actress Action/Adventure for Tom Welling and Kristin Kreuk). Even Beauty and The Geek made the list with a nomination for Choice TV: Reality Beauty & Makeover.
Notably absent from the list: Supernatural and Reaper. And what about Everybody Hates Chris, Aliens in America, Girlfriends, and The Game? We think these shows were seriously overlooked -- do you agree?
Let us know what you think of the nominations in the comments!

Xoxo,
Gossip Girl
Okay, Gossip Girl didn't really write that about Blake Lively and Penn Badgley... but she could have! We're hearing that all the heat Serena and Dan generate on Gossip Girl might not just be good acting -- The New York Daily News reports that the two are quietly dating. Squee! These two are already so adorable on the show, and they have so many lovey-dovey scenes, it's not hard to believe that their onscreen romance turned into a real one.
It wouldn't be the first time -- think of all the other teen drama couples that hooked up after their characters did. Offscreen romances are practically a requirement! Just think of Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray on One Tree Hill, Rachel Bilson and Adam Brody on The O.C., Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson on Dawson's Creek-- and that's just for starters (the fact that none of these couples lasted is something we'll just ignore for now).
We'd like to think this gossip is true, but The NY Daily News isn't exactly Gossip Girl. We need her to confirm this juicy rumor! What do you guys think -- are Penn and Blake for real? And if so, are you a fan of this new relationship? Tell us in the comments and vote in the poll!
Well, Penn Badgley and Blake Lively were on The View for about four minutes last hour. Who saw it? Even though it was really short, we were impressed -- they're pretty well-spoken, especially Blake. Of course, The View ladies didn't exactly ask anything we hadn't heard before. What do they think of gossip (It can be bad, especially when it's about you)? Is the show too racy for teens (It's heightened reality, but it still comes from the behavior of real teenagers)? Come on, Whoopi and Sherri -- ask 'em something we don't know already!
One thing they did touch on that we hadn't heard before was the fact that Penn and Blake go way back -- like eight or nine years back! But before Blake could elaborate, Whoopi was on to the next question, so we'll have to figure out that connection on our own.
Penn's mom was in the audience, which was cute (and she was refreshingly normal and momlike). But poor Penn! His mom had brought some truly embarrassing cheesecake pre-Gossip Girl pics of him to share, including one that said "XOXO Penn" (eerily prophetic, given that it's Gossip Girl's tagline!) on it as he stared dreamily into the camera. Penn didn't look too happy about this, and he blushed noticeably.
As for their outfits? Blake was all grown-up ladylike in golden waves, diamond earrings, and a metallic strapless dress, while Penn dressed down for the occasion in jeans, a button-down, and a skinny black tie.
And that's about it! Hopefully these two will get more screentime next time they swing by The View.
The Gossip Girl cast continues to impress us with their down-to-earth nature. Next up? The adorably charming Penn Badgley (yes, we're gushing. We can't help it!). Penn talks about how Dan dresses better than he does, what it's like being single in New York, and his spare-time music hobby. Will he collaborate with castmate and musician Ed Westwick?
