Follow the jump for a second video, in which Ed, Chace and Leighton Meester make their way to the set of the show we love so much. Is it September yet?
As we posted yesterday, members of the Gossip Girl cast are officially back to work and filming the third season of the show we love. The premiere is September 14. Summer vacation is clearly a lot longer for us than it is for the cast members themselves!
Here's Chace Crawford and Leighton Meester on the set ...

Oh yeah, it's so on. The cast of Gossip Girl is back in New York and has officially started filming episodes for the third season, which debuts September 14!
While that's a long time away, the New York City setting allows for a lot of quality pictures from the show's set to make their way to us, and then on to you.
Did we mention we are excited for Season Three?
What does Ed Westwick's Chuck Bass have in store for us this year?

Gossip Girl bad boy Ed Westwick celebrated his 22nd birthday with a few rounds of bowling at Lucky Strike Lanes in New York City on Saturday. Sounds like fun!
Ed was accompanied by friends including girlfriend (and co-star) Jessica Szohr. Check out this photo of them arriving and Ed looking like ... well, only Ed can.

Edward William Westwick was born 22 years ago on this day in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England. He trained at the National Youth Theatre in London, earned roles in several TV series and films, tried out for Gossip Girl, and the rest is history.
What a joy it has been to watch him as Chuck Bass these past two seasons. No matter who your favorite couple is, it's tough to dispute Ed's awesomeness.
Here's a little photo tribute we put together - featuring the actor in character as Chuck and in real life - in honor of Ed's 22nd birthday on this 27th of June.
Happy birthday from all of us at Gossip Girl Insider, Ed!

Handsome. Brooding. Manly. Hunky. The list of adjectives goes on and on.
Just please, don't call Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick pretty, whatever you do.
Asked about Chace Crawford's comment in this week's People magazine, which named him the hottest Bachelor of '09, about his "Velcro patch of chest-hair," Westwick delivered a snarky retort of his own for his friend and fellow Gossip Girl co-star:
"I'm just not a pretty little boy, now am I?"
The hordes of young women gathered at Bloomingdale's K-Swiss Classic Remastered dance-off party Thursday in Manhattan might take issue with that.
Wherever Ed Westwick goes, fans automatically congregate.
Gossip, too, has a way of attaching itself to the British actor – be it false rumors of a more-than-friends relationship with Crawford or about his expanding waistline.
Westwick, however, isn't about to let that any of that get him down: "I'm over everything that's been in the past, and everything right now is fantastic, man," he says.
Speaking of fantastic, just how does Westwick manage to look so good? "I've never been a real gym guy," he admits. "I always got my fitness through playing soccer."
Ed Westwick hosted a dance-off in celebration of the new K-Swiss classic sneakers in New York on Friday. Earlier this year, the Gossip Girl star became the new face (feet?) of the footwear brand. Needless to say, he's a good choice, don't you think?
Here are a couple of Ed Westwick photos, showing our man in action ...
On the first-ever episode of Gossip Girl, Ed Westwick’s character, Chuck Bass, bookended a pair of date-rape scenes with a weed reference and the memorable zinger delivered to the show’s principal, Serena van der Woodsen:
“Your life is over, slut!”
“Villain is such a harsh word,” Westwick tells GQ from a hotel in Washington, D.C., where he has just attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
It’s hard to imagine what Westwick, a recently minted 22-year-old TV antagonist from England, was doing pressing the flesh with Beltway muckrackers.
But Ed, who looks like Jude Law crossed with a pre-meltdown Joaquin Phoenix, assures, in his assured British way, that “everyone who is anyone was there.”
If that makes Ed sound like a bit of a dick, surrender now - it’s part of his appeal. Just ask Gossip Girl’s freakishly wide-ranging demographic of religious watchers.
Many fans are as riveted by the incestuous nature of the cast as the show itself. Ed Westwick dates co-star Jessica Szohr and is roommates with Chace Crawford.
When pushed to dish, Westwick minimizes the thin line between work and play, and fair enough. You’d date a co-worker if she looked like Jessica Szohr.
In the magazine's preview of the fashion that will help you weather the fall months ahead (odd as that may seem now, in June), Ed Westwick reaches for some classic pieces that embrace timeless style and construction.

People magazine has the following report about the ongoing romance between Gossip Girl stars Jessica Szohr and Ed Westwick (Vanessa Abrams and Chuck Bass):
The two enjoyed a romantic dinner date at Koi in West Hollywood. The couple entertained pals from their corner patio booth, and got especially cozy with each other.
For dinner? Sushi, of course! And the two got a sweet start to their day, stopping at Sunset Plaza’s Buttercake Bakery for coffee and chocolate and vanilla cupcakes.
Sounds yummy ... much like Jed in general!
Ed Westwick and Jessica Szohr as a couple: Hot or not?
Zap2it's Korbi Ghosh hit The Young Hollywood Awards over the weekend and was lucky enough to accost a few of our favorite stars - well, at least Ed Westwick.
In his brief interview, in which every word sounds awesome in his British accent, Ed said he likes Chuck and Blair together, and would like to see them actually "give it a go."
The 21-year-old actor also revealed that he has seven (!) tattoos.
