Blake Lively and Leighton Meester: Feuding!


Now this is way too good to be true!
The Gossip Girl Beauties feuding, don't think so. It may seem that when the show started their characters didn't want anything to do with eachother but in reality, Blake Lively and Leighton Meester are more then friends, their best friends!
Rumours have been fludding around hollywood that the girls have been fueding over Chase Crawford who plays Nate on Gossip Girl. The two girls have something else to say to that.
"of course were not fueding, there's no reason to" Gossip Girl Star Blake Lively was telling us, "Leighton & I are best friends, we have so much fun together". "Ever since the show started our characters didn't like eachother at all, but now they are friends again" Leighton explained, "fans who like these kinds of shows love to see the actual people in feuds just like in the show itself, but I don't think that would happen any time soon".

Hockey Beauty: Brianna MacTavish

Have you ever heard of the name Brianna MacTavish? Well if you haven’t she is one of the most talked about hockey daughters. Growing up strictly in a hockey based family. Her father Craig MacTavish was an NHL professional hockey player, and her mother heiress to the Denny Andrew’s Ford fortune. When we interviewed her parents they said she always had an eye for the camera. “Ever since Brianna was a little girl she always wanted to be an actress and model, she would work for hours on making herself look professional” her mother Debbie explained “she always put on plays, and acted to herself in her bedroom, we could never seem to get her to stop”. It seemed that Brianna’s wish had come true, by the time she was only ten years old she was already landing commercial spots and modeling gigs.

Brianna also had an eye for her dad’s sport, hockey. “she would always be more then happy to come to the rink and help me coach, she still does” her father Craig explains, “even now she will come before the players get to Rexall and play a game of hockey against her old dad”, but that’s not all, she also always loved to figure skate, it was one of her favorite past times. Other than playing hockey and help coach with her dad, she has also had her share of hockey boyfriends. In middle 2007 she was attached to NHL hockey star Jordan Staal of the Pittsburgh Penguins, and now she is reportedly engaged to Edmonton Oilers hockey star Sam Gagner.

At only the age of 17 she has landed her dream part in a huge show. “I’ve always loved acting ever since I was real little, when I got the part of Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl I was overjoyed, so excited I couldn’t wait to start filming”. Under the name Leighton Meester for safety reasons, Leighton Meester being her grandmothers name, “I had a run in with an ex-boyfriend of mine, when I got the part in the show my mother immediately said that I should use my grandmothers name for strict safety reasons” Brianna explains, “I was more then happy to, I’ve always looked up to my grandmother. I am just glad that I can be in the show”. Now only in the first season Gossip Girl is a well loved show by a huge amount of teenagers and even adults. Following the lives of New York’s elite, and using the slogan ‘you’re nobody until you’re talked about’ it has caught many people’s eyes.

Still attending high school, Brianna MacTavish is planning on graduating and heading off to university we had to ask if there’s going to be another season of the hit show, “I am not really sure, were still filming the rest of the first season. I would love for their to be another season, playing Blair Waldorf is so much fun”. Now if you haven’t heard of the name Brianna MacTavish then you don’t know what you’re missing.
