The show premiered in September back in 2007, Lively remained the lead in the series throughout the sixth and final season along with Meester, Badgley, Crawford, and Westwick.
The summer gossip girl turned 18… This show was my college. It was my education, my social life, my hardwork, my late nights and early mornings, my teacher. New York City and Silvercup Studios (& sometimes Paris ✨) was my campus for SIX years. So many memories. What. A. Decade. 💖 What a University.
