^ Yes- great pictures in Paris...I am counting on the NY Prep School fanatics (i.e. the real life Gossip Girls) to jump in and put off their trips to the Hamptons so we can get pictures all day long!!
Leighton Meester Loves To Text
Leighton Meester is a ''text addict'' who spends most of her breaks on the 'Gossip Girl' set sending out messages on her phone.
Leighton Meester is a "text addict".
The 24-year-old actress admits sending short messages from her phone to her friends is her biggest pastime when she is working on US teen drama 'Gossip Girl' and she astonishes people with the speed in which she can type out a note.
She is quoted by gossip website Absolute Now as saying: "I am very fast. That's mainly because I text so much. I am a text addict. It is often what I end up doing when I'm on set and have to be really quiet - I text. I have gotten really, really good and it is really sad! I use all those abbreviations too."
Leighton - who plays Blair Waldorf in 'Gossip Girl' - recently admitted she quit school early because she was bullied over her love of acting.
She said: "I was a bit of a goofball. I wanted to be a counsellor, help people, but then I discovered this other side to people.
"I was easy to pick on because of my acting. I realised that there are a lot of people out there who just aren't very nice.
"I stopped going to school - I was a bit rebellious and just didn't go. My mother was fine about it."
