Top 10 Real-Life Relationships Pt. 5
26 04 2009Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
The countdown concludes today with one seemingly very happy couple and the saddest love story to come out of the teen drama world.
2. Blake Lively (Serena, Gossip Girl) and Penn Badgley (Dan, Gossip Girl)

Though they knew each other already, Lively and Bagdley didn’t began dating until season one of Gossip Girl. When I interviewed Bagdley last year he wouldn’t confirm or deny the relationship,but the two have slowly opened up about it to the media. From a Details magazine article: “Penn, who was home-schooled with Blake a decade ago, when both were child actors, calls the relationship ‘wonderful and also something to grapple with’ in terms of mixing work and pleasure. But he won’t say more. ‘You have to draw the line somewhere. I’m fine talking about my family and personal history, because it humanizes you. But I have to save some shit for me.'”
1. Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) and Sophia Bush (Brooke, One Tree Hill)

Murray and Bush hold the honor of being the only teen drama couple to be married–and divorced. The two met on One Tree Hill in 2003 and married in 2005. But the wedded bliss was short-lived: Bush asked for an annulment just 5 months later. Though neither have ever explicitly said the cause of the separation, rumors persist that Murray cheated on her. But since the end of their relationship, the two have shared many love scenes on the show, which I give them both a lot of credit for. I cannot imagine having to pretend to be in love and kiss the person that broke your heart. Murray said in an interview last year that “It’s one of those things where you grow up a lot faster. You’re put in a situation where you’re gonna deal with things right in your face. But I think [Sophia and I] are both professional and mature enough to get through it. And now it’s just easy. We’re just friends. And she’s got James, and James and I are friends. It’s just a little tight group in Wilmington.” Murray got engaged again not long after ending things with Bush, this time to Kenzie Dalton, a sometimes-extra on the show.

Top 10 Real-Life Relationships Pt. 3
24 04 2009Part three of my countdown focuses on a fairly new couple and one that still leaves me feeling heartbroken.
6. Sophia Bush (Brooke, One Tree Hill) and James Lafferty (Nathan, One Tree Hill)

Reports that these two are currently dating started circulating in late 2007 and continue still to this day, though neither has commented publicly about it.
5. Rachel Bilson (Summer, The O.C.) and Adam Brody (Seth, The O.C.)

Bilson and Brody began dating not long after The O.C. debuted in 2003. Their characters had an on-off relationship throughout the series, and the couple themselves broke up towards the end of 2006 (though fans were strongly rooting for them!). During their relationship, they lived together and co-owned two dogs. From a New York Post article: “They say, ‘Don’t date your co-star,’ but that’s who you’re around,” says Rachel. “If you’re in an office, and you see someone every day and you click well, you’ll start dating. It’s the same thing.” The two lived together, and after their breakup in December 2006, they divided belongings and dogs—Adam took pit bull Penny Lane, and Rachel walked away with Thurmen. “Oh yeah, during the divorce, that was a given.”

News Roundup: Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, 90210 and More
17 03 2009- Newsday called Gossip Girl “one of the smartest shows on television” and rated this season an A.
- Last night’s Gossip Girl was based on the film/book, The Age of Innocence. The New York Post provides a side-by-side comparison.
- Sebastian Stan (Carter, Gossip Girl) has one of the lead roles on Kings, a new series airing on NBC.
- EW.com is asking readers why you love Gossip Girl and 90210. One staffer just doesn’t see the appeal.
- BuddyTV ranked the different parts of last night’s One Tree Hill.
- Mark Schwahn previews next week’s episode in this video.
- You can customize your iGoogle homepage with a One Tree Hill header.
- Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) gives one-word plot twists in a new video interview: dog, baby, heart, cash, hospital and love. Also, did you know he’s is a painter in his spare time?! Who knew?!

- Tori Spelling’s (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) new book, Mommywood, will no longer go head-to-head with her mother Candy’s memoir. I’ll still be buying both!
- SoapNet is airing commercials with Spelling talking about different Donna moments. Really just promos to get you to watch the repeats. Would be cool if they did this with all the characters!
- Ryan Eggold (Ryan, 9021o) said he didn’t watch the original show growing up, choosing ninjas and Saved by the Bell instead.
- Love this “open letter” praising Josh Schwartz.
- The New York Times compares Schwartz’s Rockville CA to The O.C. and Gossip Girl.

My Autographed OTH Backpack!
11 03 2009Every year my school, Northwestern University, holds a huge charity event called Dance Marathon. Aside from dancing for 30 hours straight to raise awareness about a specific cause (this year it was for Project Kindle), there are other events such as a silent auction.
On Saturday I was stunned into bliss when I saw one particular item up for bid: an autographed One Tree Hill backpack, donated courtesy of one Hilarie Burton!
There was only one bid at that time–a measley $20–and I wasn’t going to let anyone stop me from winning it! Fifty bucks later, this piece of memorabilia was all mine!
No idea how they got Hilarie to donate it, or why all the main characters signed except Sophia Bush, but I couldn’t be happier!
Check it out for yourself…
