Ugh, I don’t get why the Gossip Girl writers insist on recycling the Blair and Nate storyline. I know that Chace Crawford is gorgeous but the guy can’t simply act so I don’t sense any chemistry between him and Leighton. Anyway, here’s the latest scoop from Kristin of E! Online and the pictures are courtesy of Spoiler TV:
“It’s true. As we teased in last week’s Spoiler Chat, a core couple is reuniting on Gossip Girl. The just-released location photo above means that hot little kitty is debagged, and my sources confirm what your eyes are seeing: Gossip Girl’s newest (old) hookup is Blair (Leighton Meester) and Nate (Chace Crawford). Gasp!
What does this mean for the epic romance that is Blair and Chuck (Ed Westwick)? And why the frak are Nate and Blair back to nooky anyway? I’ve got the exclusive scoop…
Sources tell me that unlike Blair and Chuck’s deep adversarial passion, the renewed Blair and Nate coupling is about familiarity and comfort.
According to one insider, “Blair and Nate are both at a crossroads. Blair has to accept she isn’t going to Yale. Nate is being sucked into his family’s expectations, and they are both there for each other and enjoy the familiarity. At first it’s platonic, but, of course, that doesn’t last long.”
Blate. Blah.
Still, don’t worry, Bluck fans. Even though Nate and Blair are playing tonsil hockey for the time being, I have it on good authority that Blair and Chuck have not been forgotten. For that matter, Gossip Girl boss Josh Schwartz just told the Chicago Tribune’s wonderful Mo Ryan, “We get that that [relationship] works for people.”
So in the grand tradition of the Derena merry-go-round (“Dan Serena Dan Serena whoo!”), Chuck and Blair’s time will come around again. But can you stand the wait? Will you watch between now and then?”
Sigh…Anyway, in real life, Ed Westwick and Jessica Szohr are dating. They were recently spotted kissing at the New York Knicks vs Los Angeles Lakers game at Madison Square. The pics are from Ed-Westwick.Org:
Here are more pics of the two:

I don’t even want to discuss the disdain that Nate and Blair give me. *takes a shot of whiskey*
… it dulls the stabbing in my heart.
Can I take a shot of your whiskey too Headbandwhore? This really makes me sad. *sniff*
