See Blair's Wedding Dress on Gossip Girl!
Move over, Kate Middleton.
While the Duchess of Cambridge wore Alexander McQueen to her Royal Wedding in April, Gossip Girl's own "people's princess" chose an NYC-based designer for her big day.
The CW has released new photos of Leighton Meester as Blair Waldorf on the hit series, donning a Vera Wang gown as she prepares to wed the Prince of Monaco. See below:
Vera, who appears on the Jan. 16 winter premiere of Gossip Girl, did a fabulous job. No argument there. But whether Blair actually goes through with the wedding is unclear.
Having had problems with Louis this season, and with Chuck Bass, and perhaps Dan Humphrey, waiting in the wings, Queen B's romantic future is still unwritten.
She's running out of time, though: The wedding (which serves as the focal point of the show's milestone 100th episode) is set for January 30. Save the date!
Will she be happy ever after? Or a runaway bride?
Royal Wedding Dress Fashion Face-Off: Kate Middleton vs. Blair Waldorf
Kate Middleton was dubbed the "People's Princess" earlier this year when she became the first commoner to marry an heir to the British throne in centuries.
On Gossip Girl, Blair Waldorf (played by Leighton Meester) is getting ready to do the same on January 30, as she is engaged to Louis, the Prince of Monaco.
Meester was seen on the street filming in her wedding dress ... a runaway bride perhaps? Or filming a dream sequence? Impossible to say for another two months.
What you can say now is whether Gossip Girl fashion compares to the real deal! Whose wedding dress do you like better, Kate's or Blair's? Vote below!
Gossip Girl Fashion Face-Off: Blake Lively vs. Leighton Meester
One hundred episodes of drama, scandal, snark and Gossip Girl fashion.
January 30 marks the 100th installment of the CW hit we know and love, and on Saturday night, the cast celebrated the completion of its filming with a red carpet event at Cipriani Wall Street in New York. It was, as expected, a stylish affair.
In addition to their male co-stars, Blake Lively and Leighton Meester were on hand, albeit a few hours late, leaving the cameras breathlessly awaiting their arrival. Both stars were a bit under-dressed for the cold weather ... but looked fabulous.
Who looked the most fabulous, though? Vote in our Fashion Face-Off!
Gossip Girl Fashion Face-Off: Ed Westwick vs. Chace Crawford vs. Penn Badgley

Celebrating the milestone, which airs in January, the men of the CW hit partied at Cipriani Wall Street in NYC. You could say they were occupying hotness ... or something.
Anyway, whose Gossip Girl fashion do you like the best? Vote below, and try not to deduct points for Penn's hair. This is a style showdown, not a hair affair, people!
Elizabeth Hurley on Gossip Girl: First Look!
Elizabeth Hurley recently joined the cast of Gossip Girl for the upcoming season as Diana Payne, described as “a sexy, smart, self-made media mogul."
A media ogul who may seduce Chace Crawford's Nate!
We're basing that on nothing but this photo from the show's New York set, of course. We have no idea what plot developments the producers have in store.
That said, would it surprise anybody? Blair and Serena both have their own story lines, and sleeping with gorgeous women is one of Nate's strong suits.
Just saying. Anyway, here's Elizabeth and Chace on set ...
Is there a chance Nate will hit it? Is there a chance he won't?
Elizabeth Hurley to Appear on Gossip Girl
She was cast on Wonder Woman, but that never saw the light of a TV screen.
Now, though, Elizabeth Hurley has signed on for a role that has the television world buzzing: Gossip Girl producers Stephanie Savage and Joshua Safran, tell TV Line that the British actress will play a character named Diana Payne. Look for her to appear on multiple season five episodes as a media mogul of some kind.
Sources say Elizabeth Hurley's presence will "change the lives" of all individuals on the show... including Gossip Girl herself!

Taylor Momsen, Jessica Szohr Leaving Gossip Girl
Taylor Momsen and Jessica Szohr will not be back on Gossip Girl next fall.
The two actresses, both of whom have been with the buzzed-about CW hit's cast from the start, will not be returning for the fifth season, a show rep says.
Both Momsen, who has made clear her desire to focus on her rock career, and Szohr have been invited to guest star in the future, so things are amicable.
The remaining Gossip Girl gang, however, is intact, with Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford all planning to return.
Actress Kaylee DeFer is also joining the permanent cast as Charlie Rhodes, cousin to Serena van der Woodsen (Lively) and niece of Lily (Kelly Rutherford).
Momsen, who fronts the Pretty Reckless, began an "indefinite hiatus" from the show last fall amid headlines about her shocking interviews and fashion.
Szohr has always struggled to hit her stride on Gossip Girl, although that's more the fault of the writers than the actress. Hopefully this move is for the best.
Fashion Face-Off: Jessica Szohr vs. Leighton Meester
Jessica Szohr may have no shot in this one. Leighton Meester's a strong competitor, and, well ... she's channeling Gothic Barbie a little too much for our taste.
You be the judge, though. As you can see, she donned oversized shorts and a drapey silk cardigan and platforms at a fashionable Maybelline New York event.
Her Gossip Girl co-star, meanwhile, opted for the high fashion route in a color block Giambattista Valli dress with a draped front at NYC's Cipriani Wall Street.

Just a Typical Night Out For Taylor Momsen
Taylor Momsen must love Halloween. Either that or she hates it, since for one brief period per year, her underage-goth-girl-rocker look isn't edgy or unusual!
The Gossip Girl Corpse Bride herself showed up a party in W. Hollywood last night, with no shortage of leather or lace. Did we mention she's 17 years old?
Hey, at compared to those topless concert pics, this is more or less tame. No word on whether The Pretty Reckless is renaming itself The Zombie Raccoons ...
Taylor Momsen readies for Halloween. Or just any Tuesday evening.
Tim Gunn: Taylor Momsen is a Sad, Pathetic Brat!
Tim Gunn certainly does not mince words, and Tuesday night, the fashionable Project Runway fellow had some choice ones for Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen.
While promoting his new book, Gunn's Golden Rules: Life's Little Lessons for Making It Work, Tim just shot a guest spot on the new season of Gossip Girl.
Let's just say he wasn't impressed with T-Moms.
For one, he says if the actress paid more attention to her lines than her phone, the Pretty Reckless frontwoman woman be much better at her day job.
He says he found Momsen "sad" and pathetic."
"What a diva!" he says of the trouble-causing 17-year-old lightning rod. "She was pathetic, she couldn't remember her lines, and she didn't even have that many. I thought to myself 'why are we all being held hostage by this brat?"
The main problem, he says, was her BlackBerry use.
