    Spotted!
    BL and LM hosting Nylon's Young Hollywood bash at Amalia. CC spent most of the night being mobbed by fangirls, while BL and PB found a quiet corner to hang out... not as friends, apparently. KR gave them her blessing, which means both of Bladgely's fictional parents approve. BL, PB, CC, MT, and JS out at D'or. Blahdgely were reportedly bored and aloof. MT passing out at her own Sunglasses Hut party before being spotted again later that night at 1OAK. Georgina much? CP helpfully informing People that he plans to spend the weekend helping his girlfriend who is a girl shop for her prom dress. We get it, C! No need to flaunt your heterosexuality! It's not like the media's had any trouble separating fiction from reality where Gossip Girl is concerned.

    Spotted!
    PB and BL making out on the beach... not as friends! SHOCKING. Here's hoping Plake don't turn into the next Chad and Sofia! MS not getting involved in Blenn by... getting involved in Plively. He thinks they're cute, and we agree! BL, LM, CC, JS, TM, and MT partying the night away at EW's post-upfronts bash at Bowery. MT actually at 1OAK, how's that for meta? LM at the Christian Dior Resort Collection. Yawn! Now that Bladgely have stolen all the headlines, the rest of the cast is going to have to work twice as hard at staying relevant. We can't wait to see what they come up with.

    Spotted!
    Finally! A nasty behind-the-scenes rumor that isn't about the ladies! Is PB jealous of CC's rising star? "Penn was supposed to be the show's break-out star and now it is obviously Chace, and Penn doesn't like it," says a snitch. Considering PB's recent zen-like introspection about the trials and tribulations of fame, we're not sure what to think. And would CC receiving all the TomKat kudos really be enough to put him in a snit? On our scale of jealousy-inducing slights, that's like a negative five. (Maybe PB is just a Surpressive Person?) At least PB has BL's shoulder to cry on... as friends! Feud or no feud, PB was definitely spotted at CC's Southern Hospitality blow-out bash to celebrate the season's wrap, along with LM and MT.
