  • Blake Lively (Serena, Gossip Girl) is one of the stars on the cover of the March 13th issue of Entertainment Weekly.  Inside there is a picture of Blair (Leighton Meester) and Chuck (Ed Westwick), as well as blurb previewing the rest of the GG and 90210 seasons.
  • Josh Schwartz says the Gossip Girl spin-off is NOT titled Lily.  In fact, no name has been chosen.
  • Mark Schwahn (creator, One Tree Hill) always gives good interviews and this one is no exception.  Lots of great stuff revealed!
  • There’s a really short but super cute video of Hilarie Burton (Peyton, One Tree Hill) and Austin Nichols (Julian, One Tree Hill) on the Southern Gothic Productions blog.
  • Bevin Prince (Bevin, One Tree Hill) says she wouldn’t mind seeing where her character’s gone since high school.

  • Michael Steger (Navid, 90210) says he’ll get more air time as Adrianna’s (Jessica Lowndes) pregnany progresses but he doesn’t what his other storylines, if any, will be.
  • Kellan Lutz (George, 90210) says he doesn’t know if AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi, 90210) will be joining him in the Twilight sequel, New Moon.
  • Blake Lively (Serena, Gossip Girl) says she’s “the happiest I’ve ever been” and won’t follow Britney Spears in her (now over?) downward spiral.
  • Matt Barr (Psycho Derek, One Tree Hill) has been added to the cast of the Gossip Girl spin-off.  Since his character’s last name is van der Woodsen, he could be Lily’s future husband and Serena and Eric’s dad.  Or they could be trying to throw us.  Maybe she ends up marrying his brother or cousin or something?  And where does Rufus play a role in this if he’s supposedly the great love of her younger life??
  • Kate Voegle (Mia, One Tree Hill) is working on a new album in addition to filming OTH episodes.
  • Madchen Amick (Catherine, Gossip Girl; Nicole, Dawson’s Creek) has been cast in an ABC pilot.
  • SoapNet has acquired all the seasons of Gilmore Girls but no word yet when it will air or if this will break up the daily and weekend blocks of One Tree Hill, The O.C., and Beverly Hills 90210.
