Ed Westwick’s hard partying is beginning to show on his waistline, and that could spell big trouble for the young actor’s contract with the CW’s cult favorite Gossip Girl, In Touch Weekly has revealed.
“Ed has been gaining a lot of weight — not just around the waist, but throughout his whole body,” an on-set source spills in the April 20 edition of the tab. “First, the costume department had to buy him new, bigger pants. Then, his shirts and jackets got way too snug. The costumers even requested that producers talk to Ed — they don’t want Chuck to be fat!”
Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester is trying to break into the world of music with the release of her upcoming debut album, set to drop later this year.
So it’s only fitting that fans get a listen of the star’s techno-esque first single, “Birthday,” which just leaked onto the Web.
Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford has auditioned to “kick off his Sunday shoes” in an upcoming remake of the 1984 film Footloose.
Chace is in line to replace High School Musical star Zac Efron, who had been slated to take over the role first played by Kevin Bacon in the original film, but pulled out earlier this month.
According to E! Online, Chace wowed Paramount Studios bosses with his conviction and fancy footwork during a recent screen test for the lead role in the new Footloose.
The Gossip Girl actor would love to follow in the footsteps of Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, and most recently Christian Bale to star as Batman on the big screen.
Chace, 23, says: “I’d absolutely love to go into movies. ‘Gossip Girl’ is a very good platform for everyone on the show. If I could play anyone it’d probably be Batman.”
The Gossip Girl beauty has left her neighbors in a huff after she banished cigars, cigarettes, and other forms of cancer sticks from all apartments sharing a floor with her posh NYC pad. Leighton has asked neighbors to refrain from lighting up inside their homes because she “develops a sore throat if she’s exposed” to smoke.
“She asked everyone not to smoke because the smell comes under her door,” a Leighton spy tells Star.
Ironically, the young star’s boyfriend, actor Sebastian Stan, and co-star Ed Westwick are both heavy smokers.
Gossip Girl’s Blake Lively appears on the Late Show with David Letterman on Tues., March 24.
“Julia Roberts called me this weekend and she wanted to know if we could take you away to a Polygamist community and marry you,” Blake told the newlywed Letterman. “But I heard that somebody snatched you up. So — the offer is open…”
Dave jokingly responded: “I’ll tell you something off the record, we’re not getting along. There is talk of a legal separation. I’ll be outside on the curb.”
