Leighton Marissa Meester

Buzznet caught up with Leighton Meester in honor of the release of her new danceable single ‘Somebody To Love’, a collab with singer/songwriter Robin Thicke. The Gossip Girl’s previous foray into music, you probably remember, was guest vocals for Cobra Starship’s radio hit ‘Good Girls Go Bad’. Teaming up was fun, but the TV actress has been in and out of the studio, writing and recording her own stuff.

Find out what Leighton has to say about boys and love, Behind Closed Doors. It’s no suprise that she believes in “undeniable chemistry”–how else would she nail the part of Queen B and Chuck Bass’ lover on the CW’s best show? Read more…

Leighton Meester is back with a new song “Your Love’s a Drug”, which is rumored to be the 2nd single from her upcoming debut album, also titled Your Love’s a Drug.

While Leighton Meester doesn’t appear to be nothing in real-life like the wealthy, entitled character she portrays on Gossip Girl, it’s easy to imagine Blair Waldorf’s “money fixes everything” attitude seeping into the making of this album. Read more…

We have another brief listen at a Leighton song, “Your Lies Are The Truth”. I am really liking this!

“I think it’s still sophisticated, which is special to me, and it’s you know, definitely my style of the lyrics and it definitely has a lot to do with my experiences in life. But it’s… you know… I don’t think [Blair] would be mad at it.”

When you think of Aly & AJ, one of the last names that might come to mind is Alfred Hitchcock. And when you think of Leighton Meester and Minka Kelly, blood and gore isn’t exactly the order of the day. But next September, all these diverse forces will come together for The Roomate, a movie a Single White Female storyline and hopes to terrify a new generation with a classic scene revolving around two key words: bloody bellybutton.

“I think it’s exciting to be able to continue to do our music, but at the same time branch out into our own acting careers,” explained Aly Michalka recently, proud of not only her and AJ’s new band name (78violet), but also movie careers that recently had Aly shoot Roommate with Leighton, Minka and Cam Gigandet. ‘Roommate was super cool to shoot with Leighton and Minka. They were sweet girls, and I had a fun time doing my crazy shower scene.”

Leighton was interviewed on the set of her new music video “Somebody to Love” with MTV. Check it out below! Can’t wait to see this one, her look is very interesting.

Gossip Girl is about to step up its love game on Monday (October 19), when Ed Westwick’s Chuck Bass will start playing for the other team and kiss a boy on the show. There’s no word on how much he’ll like it, but his onscreen girlfriend, Leighton Meester, divulges that her character, Blair Waldorf, just may be the mastermind behind the show’s much-hyped gay kiss.

Production Weekly wrote on their official twitter page that Leighton Meester and Amber Heard will topline Jess Manafort’s Cowgirl Bandits with Paul Schiff producing. The movie is being dubed a a young version of Thelma & Louise.

Manafort worked with Meester and Heard on the 2007 film Remember the Daze. The movie, which Manafort also wrote, revolved around the relationship dynamics of a group of suburban teens on the last day of school in 1999.

We’ll continue to keep you posted on this news! Definitely sounds interesting, I adored Manafort’s Daze and both Leighton and Amber in it. Not to mention Thelma & Louise is one of my all time favorites.

Apologies for the lack of updates. I have been working extremely hard behind the scenes on the new version of this site, which will have tons of new features so that’s been consuming most of my time working on Just Leighton. That will hopefully be available very soon and I can continue catching up on the latest pictures and Gossip Girl caps. But for now, enjoy pictures of Leighton’s latest event in Paris Fashion Week.
