Blake Lively Penn Badgley Split!

Blake Lively and Penn Badgley, the Gossip Girl lovers who are both 23, have broken up after three years of romance!

Blake and Penn, who began dating after meeting on the set of Gossip Girl in 2007, have called it quits in mid-September, a rep for the co-stars has confirmed that.

“They’re professionals. They’re still good friends and hang out on the set. They kept this news to themselves for a while. Nobody on set had any idea. They’re really just private,” a source close to the twosome told Us Weekly.

Last week, the former couple was spotted shopping together at Henry Bendel in New York.

Blake Lively is Green Lantern Leading Lady

It's 2010 and Blake Lively is getting good breaks. She's no longer just Serena Van der Woodsen of the famous TV show Gossip Girl but she's up for an exciting role in the big screen. Blake Lively is no less than the leading lady in the Green Lantern film where Ryan Reynolds is slated to wear the green suit.

It's now confirmed that she will portray Carol Ferris who's a pilot and love interest of Green Lantern. That sounds more than a meaty role for her to join the ranks of Hollywood's top leading ladies. We're just too happy for Blake and surely we'll watch this film which is slated to be released on June 17 2010.

Gossip Girl Season 3 Episode 2: The Freshman

Gossip Girl Season 3 Episode 2 will be shown on Monday, September 21. Of course, the fans of this hugely popular CW TV show are now excited to know what's going to happen when the gang is now jump-starting their college years. For starters, Blai Waldorf (Leighton Meester) is now a freshman at NYU. It would not be all dandy for Queen B as she has to face a very serious matter -- her roommate is her old enemy Georgina (Michelle Trachtenberg). I can just laugh my arse off seeing the look on Blair's face as Georgina beamed that they are "going to be roommates". Classic!

Joining Blair at NYU are Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) and Dan (Penn Badgley), who are two of the people that's not very supportive of Queen B's desire to reign supreme at their new campus. With Georgina on the side, Blair's going to have a fine time there doing her antics as she will make hell freeze over in order to stop Georgina into transforming her as an NYU social outcast.

 

On the other hand, Blair's BFF Serena (Blake Lively) is also on her way to Brown University. In Season 3, Serena and Chuck (Ed Westwick) will be at odds (again?) with each other. Serena is due to connive with Chuck's sworn enemy Carter so that she can get him to stop bugging her. Oh well, for those of you who can't wait for Monday, here's a sneak peek of Gossip Girl Season 3 Episode 2 entitled "Freshman":
