Ed Westwick Gossip

Last week, the hype regarding TV's most-hyped show hit unprecedented levels when rumors of a Chuck Bass gay kiss hit the Internet - and were confirmed.

Well, this new sneak peek clip doesn't mention that dalliance, but does hit at other problems for Ed Westwick's Chuck and Leighton Meester's Blair Waldorf.

The gay kiss doesn't take place until later this season, but in the September 14 premiere, Chuck is certainly tempted to kiss someone other than Queen B.

No, it's a regular girl - a cute, blonde girl who looks like a hybrid of Gossip Girl star Blake Lively and guest star Hilary Duff - who attempts to seduce Chuck.

She says he doesn't "do" girlfriends. But will he "do" her? Check out the sexy clip below and follow the link for four more Gossip Girl sneak previews ...

In the upcoming season of Gossip Girl, Ed Westwick's infamous character, Chuck Bass, will be kissing someone other than Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester).

That's not a huge surprise for a character who was once given his own CW promo set to Britney Spears' song "Womanizer." The shocker is who he kisses.

It's actor Neal Bledsoe.

That's right, a guy.

According to insiders, Chuck's gay kiss happens in the sixth episode this fall after he meets Josh Ellis, New York University’s head of freshman affairs.

Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick as Gossip Girl's Blair and Chuck.

Josh is in charge of selecting an incoming NYU student to deliver the freshman class speech. Blair, who got together with Chuck at the end of last season, is wants that position so badly that she pimps out the Basshole to the gay guy in charge.

The catch? All we know right now is that, apparently 1. there is a catch, and 2. we won't believe what Chuck says to Blair following the same sex lip-lock.

FYI, Chuck was gay or at least bi-curious in the Gossip Girl books, so perhaps it was only a matter of time. Still, this comes out of nowhere for TV Chuck.

As if Gossip Girl weren't sexy and intriguing enough! What do you think will happen? Are you excited to see Chuck go gay or is it just a cheap stunt?

While Gossip Girl's two million fans pale in comparison to the Twilight saga and its mobs of obsessives, the palpable chemistry of co-stars Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick reminds us a bit of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Like Robsten, fans desperately long for Leighton and Ed to be together based solely on their smokin' Gossip Girl characters, Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass.

Heck, their only problem with the (now denied) Leighton Meester sex tape was not that it was dirrrrrty, or she was underage, but that Ed was not its co-star!

The fact that both date other people (co-stars on the show, in fact) in real life is neither here nor there. Have you seen how he looks at her? Chair forever!!

This photo from the upcoming issue of Elle, which features Leighton and Ed lookin’ all kinds of HOT (and goth) will only stoke those imaginary flames:

Two Gossip Girl hunks, one fashion face-off. Choose your side!

We've already pitted their wonderful co-star Leighton Meester and Emma Roberts in a fashion battle of their own. But who will prevail when two Gossip Girl cast members square off against one another? There can be no telling.

As you can see, Ed Westwick does not conform to convention. Chuck Bass may dress to the nines 24/7/365, but not the brooding British actor to plays him.

Chace Crawford, meanwhile, looks slightly more pulled together. Slightly. We admit we're a little disappointed at the complete and utter lack of man-bangs.

Who looked hotter?

Ed Westwick of Gossip Girl and Gemma Arterton of Quantum of Solace are rumored to be playing star-crossed lovers in a new movie version of Wuthering Heights.

The young Brits beat out a host of other high-profile names - including Sienna Miller, Michael Fassbender and Natalie Portman - to bag the parts in the adaptation.

The last movie version in 1992 saw Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche in the main roles. Can these two sexy stars make the famously electric, tortured romance between the fictional lovers Heathcliff and Cathy even hotter? We think so.

Westwick, who plays poor little rich boy Chuck Bass in U.S. teen drama we love, reportedly wooed producer Robert Bernstein to play Heathcliff.

"We’ve cast it as written," said Bernstein, whose production company has been developing the film for years. Gemma has just turned 23; Ed is 21.

"Heathcliff’s a teen, and the story takes him into his early 20s. Cathy is just as young," Bernstein said. "It’s radical because usually actors playing these characters are much older. We’re also very proud to have British actors."

No word on whether the film will include any scenes of Gemma Arterton nude. But one can certainly hold out hope of that event taking place.

If you don't watch Gossip Girl ... you're missing out.

Seriously, if you like reading celebrity gossip, you'd love the show. But you don't have to know a thing about it to take part in The Hollywood Gossip's new poll.

Part of the CW teen drama's popularity (a big part) comes from its hot cast. See below - Penn Badgley, Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick on the cover of Details ...

Which Gossip Girl guy is the hottest?

A couple of swingin' singles, Drew Barrymore and Chace Crawford of Gossip Girl fame, are now dating, Perez Hilton is reporting this morning.

"It's early on but they're definitely dating," an insider said.

The pair hit up the Saturday Night Live after-party together this past weekend, and were out and about again on Monday night!

Drew Barrymore and Chace Crawford were at the Kings of Leon concert in New York City and they made no attempt at hiding their relationship.

Multiple eyewitnesses say they were making out in plain view!

Chace's last relationship of note was with Carrie Underwood, but they broke up via text message. Like, OMG. Drew broke up with Justin Long in July.

UPDATE: Now Us Weekly is reporting that she actually made out with Ed Westwick - Chace's BFF and Gossip Girl co-star. Apparently Crawford was there, as they go everywhere together, but Drew was all over Ed. Nice work, Perez. Jackass.
