Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester will be featured on the February 2009 cover of Teen Vogue magazine. As you would expect, she looks absolutely beautiful ...
The 22-year-old continues to shine more with each passing episode as Blair Waldorf. In her interview, the Gossip Girl actress opens up about ...
... Her parents’ prison past: “I wouldn’t have volunteered that information, but I’ve never kept it a secret either. It’s just not my past; it’s not my story to tell.”
... Her childhood: “I wasn’t born in jail; I was born in a hospital. I lived with my mother for a few months in a halfway house, and then I went to stay with my grandmother for a few more before my mom got out. But I had a normal life.”
... Her co-star Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass): “He’s my favorite actor to work with. We have really good chemistry.”
... Her debut album she hopes to release this spring: “The music is very fun. It’s edgy, like electropop rather than bubblegum and you can dance to it.”
She rocks. Here are some cool behind-the-scenes photos of Leighton Meester from the Teen Vogue photo shoot in New York City. Click to enlarge!

I don't really think this photo does her justice. She's a beautiful girl, but this picture is really just so-so.

Hey I just seen this old interview of the cast at the Paley Center. Does anybody have any recent interviews with Leighton and Ed? Notice how Ed sits up and the things he says during this interview. They are so adorable! Ed and Leighton!

i think i know that interview.. and have u seen the intrview w/entertainment magazine? the way leighton looks at ed was like so cute. i hope they can be off cam couples as weel like blake and penn.. just love her..., she's smart, witty, simple and such a role model. though she portrays as the bad ass in GG, off the set she has activities and campaigns that she leads that are all admirable..and the fact she is not embarassed about her past, or that she in denial abt it. she doesnt talk abt it that much (i presume bec its private and she's rather not talk abt it, w/c is understandable), but when asked, she answers directly w/o hesitations. I salute her, its seldome that we'd have such a young star; like her; who's not blinded by the lime-light..

@kathy: ooh i love that part in the paley interview. ed was so cute and a little bit shy when he said "well just look at her"
i think she is beautiful no matter one. i will definitely buy the mag just to see her interview. the photos spread will be amazing. i love her answers. i am so thrilled that ed is her favorite actor to work. (leighton, everyone can tell that you and ed have AMAZING chemistry. anyone with half a brain can see it and feel it on ALL of your scenes together. i love chair and e/l) i just love leighton! her blair is absolutely adorable!
