Chuck Bass I hardly knew you

The new Gossip girl season has begun, and man does it kick ass!! I've just seen the 1st episode and the 2nd one is out tonight. Epic comments and outfits gives hope that this season is even better than the first one! Not surprisingly it's CHUCK BASS who steals the show... who gives a crap about Serena?

Some legendary one-liners:

Blair: "Damn that motherchucker!"

Eric: "He's got the PA on speed dial???" (about Chuck)

Ed Westwick

RANDOM RANDOM RANDOM.

Who could've known that Ed Westwick aka Chuck Bass in "Gossip girl" had a past as a chav??! In a movie, though.... I watched "Breaking and entering" last night, a not very remarkable film, but worth every second to see Chuck as a criminal Bosnian-English chav boy!! Apparently this was the first movie he starred in... The transition he's gone through since those days is pretty incredible... See for yourself:

.... Several years later he's grown up to be a real hunk....

Superboring superheroes...

When I heard the theme of this year's Costume Institute gala (Superheroes!), my mind wandered: Strong Wonder women, nerdy Clark Kent's, Batman masks etc etc. A costume gala with this theme was almost too good to be true! But looking at the pictures now, the turnout proved to be very boring: A typical polished NY ball event, with tiny tanned women in Armani, Michael Kors and Vera Wang, accompanied by old rich men in suits. Anyone can look good in a LBD, why not try something a bit more interesting for once?!

Well some did try at least, but with various results. A few managed to incorporate superhero details into a modern outfit in a subtle way, like Kate Bosworth, Christina Ricci and supermodels Caroline Trentini and Raquel Zimmerman. Others looked...cartoonish, but fun! (Hamish Bowles, Zac Posen) What I don't understand is why no one opted for the Luella Batman look SS08? I mean, it's perfect! I'd happily go in that batman suit!!

On a different note, there were some beauuuuutiful couples... Now I just can't decide if I wanna be Karen Elson or Diane Krüger:


The Gossip girl cast has been called the most beautiful tv-cast ever, I can't say I disagree when looking at these pictures! ("Chuck" looks pretty good, surprisingly...)
