Gossip Girl Behind the Scenes Drama That Led to Full-Blown Wardrobe Wars - Startefacts

A very Gossip Girl-worthy scandal involving Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, and Taylor Momsen broke out prior to the final season.
Full ten years passed since The CW Gossip Girl ended to the dismay of its many fans. Since then, the stars of the teen drama have grown up and become established actors, and the show found its continuation in 2021's HBO Max reboot also titled Gossip Girl.
Apart from the shared universe, both shows are linked by one very important thing, love for fashion. It is safe to say, the original show changed the wardrobes of its viewers forever. Many old-time fans still have Upper East Siders' outfits in their closets.
Besides the obsession with fashion, the show was addictive in the way it portrayed drama. Viewers didn't need much time to get sucked into the drama-filled lives of privileged upper-class adolescents. The cast was gorgeous, the outfits were mind-blowing, the storylines were scandalous, both fictional characters and real-life actors had on-and-off relationships with each other. The off-screen affairs were not the only thing happening behind the cameras.
Gossip Girl Finale Twist Left The Show's Star Disappointed and Confused
While viewers enjoyed beloved characters having on-screen drama week after week, full-blown scandals happened on set. It is not surprising considering how young and ambitious the cast was. Take a bunch of beautiful young actors full of hopes and aspirations, make them famous, and you are bound to get at least some level of behind-the-scenes drama.
One off-screen scandal united two of Gossip Girl's main themes, fashion and drama. There are not many viewers who would resist doing their worst if they could get at least some of the outfits featured in the show. Naturally, the cast couldn't help themselves either. As Hollywood Life reported, three stars, Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, and Taylor Momsen had full-blown wardrobe wars in anticipation of the final sixth season.
Upon learning, Meester's wardrobe budget was increased and she would get some amazing outfits in the final season, Blake Lively and Taylor Momsen lost it. Lively felt that the creators went behind her back when doing such an inconsiderate thing. After all, she had the most success outside the show and deserved to be the main focus of the final season.
This scandal was not just based on jealousy of other stars' beautiful outfits. It was about the balance of power and attention in the popular teen drama show. How very in character for the beloved actresses!

How Not to Gossip During the Holidays - The Gospel Coalition

I always look forward to visiting with my husband’s uncle around the holidays. He tells the best stories. Whether it was an odd encounter on the subway or a recipe gone wrong, his tales get me laughing so hard it hurts.
There’s something about sharing stories that connects us to others. We tell stories to laugh together. We tell stories to help others know us. And we tell stories to preserve history.
But sometimes as we sit around telling stories, we get a little uncomfortable. What started as a lighthearted recounting of experience may turn into a critical review of someone’s motives and actions. What started as laughing together may turn into laughing at the expense of someone not present. There can be a fine line between storytelling and gossip. How do we know when we or someone we’re listening to has crossed it?
What Is Gossip?
Gossip can be hard to neatly define. It takes many forms and relates not only to what we say but also to our motives for saying it. As a starting point, Jeff Robinson explains that gossip involves “telling a story . . . that communicates bad news about another person behind that person’s back.” Gossip usually fits into one of two categories: (1) sharing false information or rumors or (2) sharing true information that paints someone in a negative light.
There can be a fine line between storytelling and gossip.
Ephesians 4:29 exhorts us, “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.”
Gossip may build up the one who shares it, but it tears down another person. And to those who hear it, gossip gives strife and creates division (Prov. 16:28).
Why Am I Gossiping?
Gossip is usually motivated by self-love and self-promotion, Robinson says. So we’re wise to examine our hearts as well as the content of our stories. Even if the bad news is true, why do I want to share it?
- Am I trying to impress others with my insider information?
- Am I trying to make myself look good by comparison?
- Am I harboring resentment or jealousy toward the other person?
- Do I simply find the person annoying?
It can be hard to do a careful examination of your own heart while sitting at a crowded kitchen table. So it’s critical to stay tethered to your quiet times and to keep clinging to what is good (Rom. 12:9).
How Can I Avoid Gossip?
Since our words are the overflow of our hearts (Matt. 12:34), we should begin by coming before the Lord in repentance, asking him to give us hearts that love him and others above ourselves. We can pray for the people we’re tempted to gossip about, that God would bless them and redeem their bad news. We can pray about situations—particular settings or relationships—where we’re most tempted to gossip, asking the Lord to set a guard over our mouths (Ps. 141:3).
I’ve also found a three-tiered filter for my words helpful in avoiding gossip. As we consider stories or information we might want to share this Christmas, or as we reflect on things we hear, we can ask the following questions.
1. Is it true?
If you’ve ever played the telephone game, you know just how significantly information can change when it passes from one person to another. So just because you heard something from a source you consider reliable doesn’t mean the information is true. Before you share a story about someone else, stop and evaluate whether you have confidence that you know the truth of the matter. But even if you witnessed it with your own eyes, we must go on to the second filter.
2. Is it necessary?
Just because something is true, doesn’t mean it needs to be shared. It may be true that your sister’s husband was fired from his job for misconduct, but is it necessary to give your extended family a detailed account of what he did and how his boss found out? Wouldn’t it suffice to say that he lost his job and is seeking new employment? Or maybe it’s not necessary to bring up at all.
Sometimes there may be a good reason to share bad news. Perhaps you’re visiting your hometown for the holidays and before you head to the Christmas Eve service, your mother mentions that your beloved childhood Sunday school teacher was recently divorced. That information might be necessary for you to know so you don’t unknowingly cause this woman pain by asking about her husband. And that leads us to the final question.
3. Is it kind?
As with the divorce situation, it may be kind to share information that allows others to be sensitive as they interact with someone who is suffering or grieving. But this filter not only asks us to consider what we share but how we share it.
Even if something is true and we deem it necessary to say, we should consider how we can share it kindly. This might mean pulling someone aside for a private conversation rather than sharing in front of a large group. It might mean telling a story in a way that presents someone in the best possible light rather than telling it in a way that will get the most laughs. It might mean sharing with an attitude of humility and compassion rather than arrogance and sarcasm.
How Can I Stop Someone Else’s Gossip?
What should we do when we’re in a conversation and realize someone else is gossiping? First, pray and ask the Lord for wisdom. Depending on the situation and your relationship with the person sharing gossip, there may be a range of appropriate responses.
Even if something is true and we deem it necessary to say, we should consider how we can share it kindly.
You might look for an opportunity to gently turn the conversation toward a different, more appropriate topic. Or you might humbly offer a different perspective on the person being gossiped about. I’ve found it helpful in situations where someone is being criticized or made fun of to respond with a story about the person that presents her in a positive light. Or I might directly compliment the person: “I’ve always appreciated how thoughtful Bob is to remember what my kids are interested in and ask them about it.”
If you don’t think those tactics will work, you might choose to discretely step away and join another conversation. You might even lovingly confront the gossiper in private later, especially if you’ve noticed a pattern.
But perhaps the best way to stop gossip is to tell stories of beauty and redemption. My husband and I host a New Year’s Eve feast for six other couples each year, and we ask them to reflect on the year and come to the table prepared to share how they’ve seen God at work, great books they’ve read, new curiosities they’ve explored, and other people who have blessed them. The result is an evening of conversation where we point each other to “whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable” (Phil. 4:8).
If you’re concerned about gossip at holiday gatherings, you don’t necessarily need to agonize over every word you’ll speak or gear yourself up for an awkward confrontation. Consider “if there is anything worthy of praise” (Phil. 4:8)—and talk about that.

Transfer gossip: Chelsea chase Man Utd kid as Kante wants Barcelona answers - Football365

Contracts are expiring all over the place and while Barcelona court N’Golo Kante, Chelsea themselves are looking towards Manchester United.
CHELSEA CHASE MAN UTD TEENAGER
Alejandro Garnacho has been the revelation of the season for Manchester United, scoring the only goal of Europa League victory over Real Sociedad and then coming off the bench to score the winner against Fulham in the Premier League. But the 18-year-old only has a contract that runs until the end of the season at Manchester United so other clubs are circling.
Transfer expert Si Phillips says Chelsea have been in touch with Garnacho’s entourage as they look to continue a youth revolution that has already seen them sign Carney Chukwuemeka and agree a move for Datro Fofana this season. But apparently they were knocked back by Garnacho, who intends to sign a new contract at United. Should he decide to leave, it will be for sunnier climes than west London.
MAN UTD LOOKING FOR AWB SOLUTION
The truth is that unless his confidence is entirely shot, Aaron Wan-Bissaka will make a fine loan signing for a defensive-minded Premier League club this January. And according to Fabrizio Romano, United are ‘trying to find a solution for Wan-Bissaka in order to let him leave’. He names three interested clubs as West Ham, Wolves and Crystal Palace.
The priority for United though is to get actual right-back Diogo Dalot to sign a new contract.
KANTE WANTS BARCELONA ANSWER
Barcelona are being pushed by N’Golo Kante for a decision on whether they want him at the Nou Camp, according to SPORT. They are reluctant to 100% commit to the free transfer of the French midfielder, presumably because he has played only 175 minutes of Premier League football and missed the World Cup with a hamstring injury.
Kante is one of several players available for nothing this summer and Barcelona want most of them, with Jorginho and Youri Tielemans also options. The main problem seems to be that Xavi actually wants Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi but he will cost actual money. Should Kante not get the offer he needs, he will of course turn to Juventus.
MESSI BUSINESS
The word from Spain about Lionel Messi is that ‘PSG and Messi approach positions’, which basically means that PSG are now going to have to throw all the money at the World Cup winner and also all the power in this relationship. If he wants a two-year deal with the unilateral decision about his future after the first 12 months then we suspect that is exactly what he will get.
