Three of the cast members of Gossip Girl, namely Chace Crawford, Leighton Meester, and Ed Westwick overshowered their fellow coworkes with sappy compliments for TV Guide.

“Chace can appeal to pretty much anybody because he’s so sweet and cultured. He has this kind of moral [center] - I think it’s because he’s from the South. He’s a gentleman and he’s also very fashionable. And he’s fun to work with. Chace is really good at making different voices and quoting movies. He loves talking about football, but I could care less. He knows he’s hot, but he’s smart about it. He doesn’t let it get to his head and I think that’s really attractive.” - Leighton Meester

“What makes Leighton so attractive is that she’s very confident. She’s comfortable in her own skin and she’s not trying to win anyone’s approval, which is sexy. She’s also really intelligent and has a great sense of humor. I feel like I have an odd sense of humor and she does, too. We’re both kind of weirdos. When you’re hanging out with her, you’re free to do anything. She doesn’t judge. Leighton was born in the wrong generation. She should have been born in the 70’s because she’s very free spirited. If people would be shocked by anything about her, it’s how nice she is, how personable. And obviously, she’s gorgeous.” - Chace Crawford

“Ed is just incredible. He’s got that kind of bad boy edge to him, but he has a real soft side. I find him to be the most down to earth, cool and sweet guy. He gets into these funny moods where he’s really silly. Ed’s also in a band and he’s great on stage. They played the other night, and I was yelling! He’s really artistic and an amazing singer and dancer. He loves good rock, alternative music. He’s introduced me to a lot of stuff that I really love now, like the Libertines and Babyshambles. Girls just follow him. I have a feeling Ed would do OK even if he wasn’t on a TV Show.” - Leighton Meester

It is the latest must-see teen drama that has taken America by storm, and it has now hit British TV screens.

Gossip Girl, created by the producers of The OC and based on the best-selling novels by Cecily von Ziegesar, is set in the debauched world of over-privileged teenagers from New York’s Upper East Side.

One of its central characters is Chuck Bass, the hard-drinking, playboy son of a billionaire, who has become a pinup for millions of teenage girls and the subject of feverish discussion on fansites.

Yet despite his convincing American accent, the actor who plays him in the ITV2 series is an unknown 20-yearold from Stevenage.

Unlike Chuck, who lives with his super-rich father in the New York Palace Hotel and attends a private school, Ed Westwick was brought up in a modest home in Hertfordshire and went to the local comprehensive.

He is the youngest of three brothers but, in contrast to Chuck, insists he was the “nice one” in his family.

“My brother Will was more of a devil,” he says. “Though I was easily led astray.”

To keep Ed out of mischief, his father Peter, a university lecturer, and mother Carole, an educational psychologist, sent him to Saturday morning drama school.

“It started when I was very young,” said Ed. “Mum’s not one of those stage mums. I think she sent me because I enjoyed pantomimes.”

Although he chose to study A-levels in business, law and communication, a two-week summer course at the National Youth Theatre gave him a new ambition.

And then the National Youth Theatre sent him to an audition for the film Breaking And Entering, starring Jude Law.

Despite having no professional experience, he landed the role of the teenage burglar Zoran, a Bosnian immigrant.

Ed says that working with the British director Anthony Minghella, on what turned out to be his final cinema release, was an immense privilege.
