College begins for the characters of Gossip Girl! Remember what it was like to be an incoming freshman? I do!

Here's the thing about GG: The first season was the best and that's that, but I still watch for one reason only... Blair Waldorf! She's good when she succeeds, but she's even better when she fails. Whaddya think of her being roomies with Georgina Sparks, arguably the other most interesting character on the series?

I dunno if Queen B will ever be queen at college - it's quite a different world than high school! But watching her having to deal with Georgina on a daily basis? Priceless.

Serena, Georgina and Olivia (that's Duff's character) left the upper-east side for fashion week at Bryant Park in mid-town this weekend.

And although Hil, who carried a chic Goyard clutch, and Michelle look like they're trying too hard in grown-up dresses that don't exactly flatter their normal-girl figures, could Blake have tried a little harder? At least she threw that sequined jacket over the jeans, tank and Louboutins, but she IS supposed to be a CW fashion icon!

Speaking of CW fashion icons...

On the one hand, I love it! Especially from the front. And I love the color on her. (The umbrella kinda makes her skin glow, but in a nice way!) From the back, however, I'm not so sure. Michelle Trachtenberg kinda has a Mischa Barton thing going on with her thighs, doesn't she?

Not that I'm one to judge! Check out all the sexiness on the Gossip Girl set in the gallery below...

Our favorite bad girl (well, only on tv), Michelle Trachtenberg is back in LA after filming several episodes of Gossip Girl in New York.

The cutie turned the cameras on the photogs while out shopping at Milk in Los Angeles.

She may be an LA girl, but we cannot wait to see what kind of trouble she gets into in New York next season!

We love seeing people we already love come together! Gossip Girl's (loves it) Michelle Trachtenberg and She's The Man's (loves it more!) Amanda Bynes were spotted hanging out at Fashion Week in NYC together. Think Michelle swapped "Blake Lively took soooo long combing her hair in the dressing room" stories for Amanda's Doug Reinhardt dating deets?

And by b*tch, we of course mean Michelle Trachtenberg!

Gossip Girl fans rejoice - Georgina is returning to the Upper East Side "for multiple episodes," a source confirms to Entertainment Weekly. Last time we saw Serena's maniacally manipulative rival, Blair was sending her off to a place "where she can do no harm."

This is TOTALLY the best news of 2009 so far! Georgina was kinda my fave character on GG... aside from Blair, of course!

XOXO.

Is it bad that she was kinda our fave character on the first season of Gossip Girl?

Mischa Barton was kinda sorta offered the part first and, while she might've looked more appropriate for the role, Michelle Trachtenberg was brillz! Here she is out and about town last night with the boyfriend. Cute couple!

The stars came out to shine at the Catherine Malandrino Maison Grand Opening and 10 Year Anniversary - hosted by singer Mary J Blige and Catherine herself!

Also in attendance? Dita Von Teese in a nude (ha ha ha) dress and the voluptuous Rosario Dawson...

Then there's Michelle Trachtenberg, who we LOVED on Gossip Girl, but, er, she's lookin' a little pasty here. Not to mention those cankles!

You've seen the morning after, now check out the night of the big bash!

In addition to HSM co-stars Vanessa, Monique Coleman, Ashley Tisdale with boyfriend Jared Murillo, the guest list reads like a veritable who's who of the new, young hot Hollywood.

Michelle Trachtenberg attended with her man, Amanda Bynes showed up with a pal, and Brittany Snow and pop star sisters Aly and AJ also headed to Pace, where Zac rang in his 21st.

Michelle Trachtenberg and her cute boyfriend (whom we hear is named Scott, and works at the Steven Alan boutique on Robertson), looking all matchy-matchy in checked shirts and jeans, took his new Dodge out for a spin in Malibu yesterday.

I guess we'll reconcile the fact that we're not going to see her as the evil Georgie on Gossip Girl this season with the knowledge that she'll be appearing with Zac Efron in Seventeen Again next spring!

Rachel Bilson and Michelle Trachtenberg both attended the annual Whitney Contemporaries' Art Party and Auction at Skylight Studios in NYC this week... but who looked better?

Love the bag, love the shoes, love the dress... hey, we love Rachel!

But that hair? Uh, no. This isn't the Palace of Versailles!

Dare we say that Michelle actually looks, like, hot? You're rockin' that dress, girl!

Monday nights is one of our favorite nights on television - because of GG and The Hills!

Last night's Gossip Girl wasn't quite as scandalous as we had hoped -- but it did feature some classic Josh Schwartz moments, probably some of the best all season, particularly where the old gang got back together for the sake of Serena, and everyone confessed their sins out in the open. And -- we totes love Michelle Trachtenberg as the evil Georgina!

As for The Hills, it's turning out to be quite a Lo vs. Audrina smackdown, and sorry Lo, but our loyalties lie with Audrina! There's just something so insincere about Lo - maybe it's just that she's not as good an actress as the rest?

Speaking of acting, the series finale saw Heidi, the "feminist hero" choosing between her job and Spencer. No surprise, since it's a fake job anyway, that she chose Spencer. But duh, didn't she see season one where Lauren chose Jason over Paris and regretted it? That's sooo 2006, Heidi!

We wholeheartedly love and support GG and The Hills and are totally addicted to both -- we couldn't possibly pick sides, but can you?

Which show is your favorite?

It's Gossip Girls and boys, y'all!

Chace Crawford - who is NOT dating JC Chasez - Blake Lively and Michelle Trachtenberg shot scenes in rainy New York for their hit CW show. Looks like the wind wasn't blowing as much as last week, though!

Is Chace Crawford the new Zac Efron? Maybe his ex Carrie Underwood and Vanessa Hudgens need to have a 'lil chat!

Looks crazy windy in NYC right now!

That's Gossip Girl beauty Blake Lively - love that name - with her new co-star Michelle Trachtenberg (who's taking over the role Mischa turned down) on the set of their WB show. Think these two will work well together? Is Chace Crawford really not dating JC Chasez?

Those are secrets I'll never tell.

XOXO

Numerous lovely ladies showed up for the 2007 Crystal/Lucy Awards, celebrating women in film and television, this past Thursday at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Actress Renee Zellweger - whose curves are slowly returning! - received the Crystal Award for excellence in film and The Devil Wears Prada's Emily Blunt was presented with the MaxMara "Face of the Future" Award. Smokin' outfit, Em!

Check out more red carpet pix inside!

There was some major lovin' and fightin' goin on in Hollywood! Paris greeted her adoring public outside her house, Lindsay pulled an almost all-nighter @ Les Deux (she left at 3:30 am), Justin tried to protect himself from the flashbulbs by wearing a red hoodie pulled tight around his head when he left Parc but Ashlee wasn’t quite so concerned when she entered and left the club with a girlfriend. Michelle Trachtenberg, Eva Mendes, Josh Henderson, Woody Harrelson and Keyshia Cole navigated through the crowds at Parc, and Kate and Owen (in the Porsche) were seen leaving Teddy’s together! On the fighting side, there was a sidewalk scuffle that came close to hitting Paris' limo outside of Parc, and the boys in blue showed up to take someone down outside of Teddy's! Whew!

Here's part two of our coverage of Patrick Whitesell's big Oscar bash! We not only had our camera outisde the party to catch everyone's comings and goings, but we also had a source inside the party to give us the inside scoop: Vince Vaughn showed up "drunk as a skunk". Paris was "wasted", getting into a verbal argument first with some girl, then with Stavros, who kept trying to escape. In fact, you can see Stavros flirting with some blonde girl at the end of the video, is that what Paris was so pissed about??? Sean Penn hung with Kid Rock the whole night (kind of an odd couple, but ok). Martin Scorsese (who was mobbed by fans and photogs when he left) and Forest Whitaker showed off their Oscars, Jamie Foxx rolled in a white Bentley, Naomi Campbell partied with Kimora Lee Simmons, and Rosario Dawson, Ali Larter, Zhang Ziyi and Michelle Trachtenberg all looked gorgeous!
