OMG! Are Serena van der Woodsen and Dan Humphrey going to get back together in Season 2? Or are the actors who portray them, Penn Badgley and Blake Lively, just madly in love with one another in real life?

Who knows! But we do know that they must be the hottest young celebrity couple on TV. We absolutely adore Blively. You can just see the chemistry and how they can't keep their hands off one another.

Follow the jump for another sizzling photo of on-and-off-screen loves Blake and Penn, all over each other on the Gossip Girl set ...

In a scene from a future episode of Gossip Girl, Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) is just chilling in the Hamptons on Long Island - but a shirtless, hunky lifeguard seems to have his eye on her!

What will transpire between these two, if anything?

We'd check out Serena van der Woodsen if we saw her on a beach too - but what's to come of her romantic life in Season 2 of Gossip Girl?

The UK Metro has a funny interview with 22-year-old Gossip Girl hunk Chace Crawford. Here are some excerpts for you ...

Q: Chace. That's an unusual name.
Chace Crawford: Yes. I'm OK with it.

Q: Why didn't your parents spell Chase properly?
Chace Crawford: I blame my dad. He wanted all Cs.

Q: Have you been in a love triangle like the one on Gossip Girl?
Chace Crawford: No, not one in which I'm suddenly cut into a montage of me having sex on a bar stool. I've gone from girlfriend to girlfriend in the past, but I've never been in a seedy love triangle.

Q: Are you worried you'll end up typecast like the actors on Beverly Hills 90210?
Chace Crawford: No. Gossip Girl isn't massive like 90210, it isn't iconic like 90210 and it's not going to last a decade. The crossover between TV and film has changed. Actors can do both now. They couldn't 15 years ago.

Q: What's the best thing about coming from Texas?
Chace Crawford: I've got a great family and Texas is a very family-orientated place. It's great to come from a community like that.

It's a little belated - he turned 21 on Friday - but Gossip Girl Insider would like to deliver birthday wishes to the young man who delivered the famous Gossip Girl quote, "I'm Chuck Bass."

Happy birthday, Ed Westwick!

Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick may be a snarling rocker on stage, but after the show, he's a proper English gentleman!

Especially when his parents are in the house!

The actor and musician, who plays Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl, shared a smile with his biggest fans Tuesday following a performance by his rock band, The Filthy Youth, at a New York nightclub.

Gossip Girl stars - and real-life couple - Blake Lively and Penn Badgley went on a date to Japanese restaurant Kobu in New York City. So cute.

Penn Badgley may be handsome, but Blake Lively is more photogenic. Still, this Gossip Girl couple is just about the cutest thing around.

Taylor Momsen of Gossip Girl has signed with IMG models.

This makes her one of the youngest on the roster, as Taylor is 14 - 14!

There's no denying that Taylor Momsen has model looks and model height, at 5-foot-10, but it's interesting to note IMG's scooping her up so quickly, since she's yet to score any big campaigns or covers.

The girl who plays Jenny Humphrey on Gossip Girl is sure to see some big modeling gigs roll in whilst repped by this agency.

Expect a big Teen Vogue spread soon, and also some sort of Neutrogena / Clinique / Lip Smackers partnership, unless she sails straight past the Dooney and Bourke market and scores Gap ads, that is.

Congrats to Taylor Momsen on her modeling contract!

Gossip Girl stars Blake Lively and Taylor Momsen were shooting scenes for the second season of the hit show Monday afternoon - and apparently little dogs are playing a major role in Season 2.

Okay, maybe not. Blake Lively and Taylor Momsen probably just adore their pets and like a little on-set companionship. Here are the two Gossip Girl starlets (ages 20 and 14) with their precious cargo.

You're welcome. Ed Westwick continues rocking his suave, summer style with a white suit on the set of Gossip Girl in New York Monday. Here's the handsome young British actor who plays Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl ...
