Lady Gaga Told Gossip Girl Writers What to Do


In what can only be the ultimate fusion of music, drama, and fashion, Lady Gaga is set to appear on Gossip Girl. While the rest of the cast haven’t let any info slip about the anticipated episode, Gaga herself decided to fill us in on what to expect, as well as divulging how she told the writers how she wanted the story to pan out.

“I am the narrator behind what is going on with the characters and make the song part of the moment,” the “Paparazzi” singer explained, noting that she didn’t want to be on a stage, as many musicians awkwardly and randomly appear on television shows often do (also because she stressed that she doesn’t lip-sync).

Gossip Girl Threesome Stirs More Controversy

Gossip Girl ads from Season 2Hit teenage drama show Gossip Girl continues to anger parents everywhere after news of a threesome scene on Monday’s show leaked. Nothing new there, eh?

The Parents Television Council has their knickers in a bunch, deeming the scene “reckless and irresponsible” and attempting to get the network to not air the episode.

“Will you now be complicit in establishing a precedent and expectation that teenagers should engage in behaviors heretofore associated primarily with adult films? CW has been defending graphic content on Gossip Girl by asserting that they don’t target teenagers. Such a claim doesn’t even pass the ‘laugh test,’” said Parents Television Council President Tim Winter in a statement released yesterday.

I mean, this is the same show that heralded seemingly-negative reviews (“Every parent’s nightmare,” “Mind-blowingly inappropriate,” and “A nasty piece of work”) by slapping them on top of provocative, sexual pictures of the show’s characters for their season two ad campaign. They also garnered hype for the much anticipated gay kiss.

My point?

Monday Ratings: Jay Leno Tanks Against Repeat

Could it really get any worse than this? Although the program faced a CBS repeat, The Jay Leno Show did the unthinkable last night: it went down. The talk show went so far down, it hit a season low in the demos. ABC, in the meantime, took advantage of the decreased competition and scored wins in both the viewers and the demos this Monday.

(Make sure to check out TV Envy’s Programming Schedule.)

MONDAY (10/26)

  • Heroes (NBC, 8pm):  “Claire and Gretchen go through hazing, but they’ve got other problems facing them.” They could just be blackballed from the entire network.
  • Trauma (NBC, 9pm):  “Tyler and Boone are called to a Halloween party that has gone haywire.” Every year, someone takes “Dead Man’s Party” literally.
  • Gossip Girl (CW, 9pm):  “Elsewhere, Dan is rattled when he watches one of Olivia’s on-screen sex scenes.” No one wants to think about Lizzie Maguire having sex.

Blake Lively on the Gossip Girl set

Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, and Ed Westwick were snapped up by the paparazzi on the set of Gossip Girl recently, donning some appropriate attire for the cold weather—both on and off set.

In one picture (seen after the jump), Meester is actually caught red-handed wearing Ugg boots! A Gossip Girl star wearing UGG BOOTS?! What on Earth was she (or her stylist) thinking? She ought to be fined.

Lively, on the other hand, rivals Emma Watson with her Burberry wear. Also, did Westwick and Lively cutely plan the motorcycle jackets together?

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Spoilers

Victoria BeckhamThe CW is pulling out all the stops to keep from falling to the ratings wayside. Now, Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice) will be putting in a guest appearance.

Gossip has it that Blake Lively spoke with Beckham during the recent launch of her fashion collection. Apparently, the Brit is a fan of the show. According to an unnamed source, “Victoria isn’t an actress, and wanted her role to be very tongue-in-cheek.” Sounds interesting…if you like .

If this doesn’t pull GG out of its slump, who knows what the show will do next?

Hilary Duff Fails to Score for Gossip Girl

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Ratings, Video


Despite having Hilary Duff on the roster for a night, failed to deliver for the CW. The network has been getting low ratings for all its banner shows, a bad sign for the entire fall line-up. GG is one of the shows which helped drag the CW out of obscurity, but now it might be vanishing into the background.

This week’s episode brought in only 2.1 million viewers. This matches brought in by Melrose Place, the highly-touted and newly-revamped series that premiered just this season. The CW has already pulled the trigger on it’s brand-new The Beautiful Life, which was pulled from the schedule after only two episodes.

NBC needs some help, stat! Yesterday’s series premiere of Trauma did nothing for the Peacock network’s health on Mondays. The medical drama pulled in numbers smaller than last fall’s stinker, My Own Worst Enemy. By night’s end, ABC was on top with the viewers while FOX was 1st in the demos.
