Blake Lively is known for wearing ridiculously sexy outfits on the set of Gossip Girl, but the 21-year-old star doesn’t do anything special to look good in them.
How much do you hate her right now, ladies?
“I do panic before I have to wear a really skimpy outfit, but I don’t have enough willpower,” she says of dieting in the August issue of UK Glamour Magazine.
“I had to do a scene in a bra and shorts for the first time in two years … On the day of the shoot, I ate a pork burrito, chips and a coke. Afterwards, I thought, ‘I probably shouldn’t have done that.’ But hey, whatever.”
So maybe she doesn’t eat right, but she exercises, right?
“I have never worked out, but I know you always feel better when you do,” the blonde Burbank, Calif., native says, “so I’m planning on getting a trainer.”
Lively says despite all the cattiness that exists in Gossip Girl, on and off the set, she gets along very well with her costars: “We hang out after filming, and actually look forward to spending time together outside of work.”
That includes her real-life leading man Penn Badgley, although she admits it wasn’t always the case – she was unhappy when he was cast on the series at first.
“At first I was so upset that they hired him,” she says.
“I actually poisoned the whole cast against him. But then they noticed that he was not a jerk and was actually a really nice, charming person. Almost immediately I realized that too, but it took me about a week to admit it.”
