Penn Badgley Gets Wet

Here's another cute Gossip Girl photo for you.

Co-stars and on-set siblings Taylor Momsen and Penn Badgley got back in the swing of summer during a photo shoot Thursday at a New York playground. Wonder what the heck this scene is about ...

Taylor Momsen Lands Modeling Contract

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.

Momsen the Model

Taylor Momsen on the set of Gossip Girl this week.

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!

Blake Lively, Taylor Momsen and Friends

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.

Josh Schwartz: No Gossip Girl Spin-Off Yet

Despite massive amounts of Gossip Girl gossip suggesting as much, Jenny Humphrey is not going anywhere yet.

After the Hollywood Reporter posted about a possible Gossip Girl spin-off starring Taylor Momsen (Jenny) executive producer Josh Schwartz told E! Online that the rumors are just... gossip.

"Not sure how this story got out there, but no plans for spinoff at this moment," Schwartz, the show's creator and head honcho, said.

Calling Gossip Girl spin-off talk premature, he said, "The books have a spin-off, but we have nothing in the works now other than making sure Season 2 gets off to a great start."

At least for now, Taylor Momsen will remain on the cast of Gossip Girl, and no spin-off of the teen drama is in the works - for now.

Producers Considering Gossip Girl Spin-Off

Brace yourselves for this piece of Gossip Girl news.

The producers of Gossip Girl are considering a possible spin-off set at the girls' boarding school - basing the new series either on Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen), and/or on a new character.

The new character, if that route is chosen, would be introduced after the original Gossip Girl returns for Season 2 this fall.

In either case, the spinoff is likely to focus on the storyline of Taylor Momsen's character, Jenny, from the book series.

Jenny Up Close

Jenny Humphrey is a self-esteem challenged outsider who, in the books and to an extent on the TV version of Gossip Girl as well, faces a series of humiliating, public embarrassments.

As a result, Jenny H. has to either repeat ninth grade or find herself a new school. She decides to enter a different boarding school and reinvents her image as the popular "it" girl.

It is unknown if a spinoff would go to the CW or another network.

What do you think? Would you watch a Gossip Girl spin-off? Do you think Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) can carry her own show?

Spotted All Over NYC: Taylor Momsen!

Gossip Girl is everywhere.

Well, at least Taylor Momsen is.

The blonde who plays Jenny Humphrey on the hit show was spotted outside a Starbucks this week - and in Herald Square, in the West Village, on an Upper West Side bus, even at the Meadowlands!

Here are the accounts from various spies:

  • "Saw Jenny Momsen from Gossip Girl walking out of starbucks on 49th and 8th this morning around 815am, looked normal was definitely her... white wife beater, jean shorts and a Chanel bag." — Today!
  • "Just saw Taylor Momsen from Gossip Girl @ 14th and 8th Avenue. She was asking someone for directions. Girl is very skinny and cute but doesn't look a day past 12" — June 9th
  • "Saw Taylor Momsen (aka Jenny Humphrey) at 34th and Broadway at 11:00 AM Saturday morning. Looked really skinny with silver stiletto heels and giant black sunglasses." — May 18th
  • "Spotted Taylor Momsen, aka "Litttle Jenny" from Gossip Girl on a cross-town 72nd St bus with another shaggy looking kid who was embarrassingly kissing her until she was able to push him off to fix her make-up. Got off at CPW." — May 16th

Gossip Girl Cast on People's Most Beautiful List

The Gossip Girl cast - Jessica Szohr, Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick, Blake Lively, Chace Crawford, Taylor Momsen and Leighton Meester - collectively made People magazine's Most Beautiful list. No argument here!

Most Beautiful

The beautiful and talented cast of Gossip Girl.

On-screen, they are gorgeous, scheming, back-stabbing high schoolers. Off-screen... oh who are we kidding, they are still gorgeous. But fortunately, they're somewhat kinder to one another.

"I assure you," Badgley says, "we are all fun and charming as hell."

An Interview with Taylor Momsen

At 14, Taylor Momsen is the baby of the Gossip Girl cast.

But her character, Jenny Humphrey, has been growing up fast.

When the show returns Monday, J is poised to take on Blair Waldorf (played by Leighton Meester), the school's dethroned social queen who's not likely to go down without a fight.

Taylor Momsen talked to People about being a famous freshman, handling the press and getting proposed to by a Gossip Girl fan...

People: What did you do during the strike?
Taylor Momsen: I went to school, stayed in New York, learned the city a little bit better. I know the subways now. Now I can do the A, C, E , N and R [subway lines]. I figured out express trains too. That was cool.

People: What did you miss while you weren't working?
Taylor Momsen: The rice pudding! No, I missed the scripts, reading about what was going to happen. I missed all the people, the costumes, everything about it.

People: You mentioned the rice pudding. Is the food on set better than your cafeteria at school?
Taylor Momsen: We don't have a cafeteria at my school. We go out to lunch. This is more like school than my real school.

Taylor as Jenny

People: Do your friends ask you about the show?
Taylor Momsen
: To be honest, they don't really ask questions about the show. Not really. They might ask what's gong to happen next. A lot of times I don't even know. I don't get the scripts until later.

People: Do you have a favorite subject in school?
Taylor Momsen: I like humanities — I like creative writing a lot.

People: Is it hard being the youngest in the cast?
Taylor Momsen: I'm always the youngest. I'm the baby in my class. All my friends are older.

People: Are the guys protective?
Taylor Momsen: Penn Badgley is a little bit. He's adapted to the brother role. He'll say, "Those shoes are really too tall for you."
