Leighton Meester and Adam Brody have gotten married.
The couple, who got engaged in November and co-starred in 2011 romantic-comedy The Oranges - reportedly tied the knot in a super-secret ceremony over the weekend. Several friends close to the Gossip Girl star and The O.C. actor, who only went public with their relationship last February, confirmed the news to UsMagazine.com.
An insider previously revealed the brunette beauty, 27, only started dating the 34-year-old actor last year but they "were always close and friendly" when they worked together three years ago. The duo were originally thought to be planning to get married this summer. "Leighton and Adam are crazy about each other and have talked about getting married eventually. But she had no idea when he would propose so soon! It was the surprise of her life and she's ecstatic! Right now their plan is to get married next summer. They are still deciding if they want a destination wedding or if they'll marry in southern California somewhere," a source said at the time of their engagement.

Leighton Meester Wins Court Battle Against Mother
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Legal Issues,
Leighton Meester has won her court battle against her mother.
Constance Meester had claimed the pair had an oral contract guaranteeing the actress would pay her $10,000 a month in response to papers filed by the Gossip Girl star in July 2011 claiming the $7,500 she sent home each month to help care for her younger brother was misused by her mother for personal reasons, such as cosmetic surgeries.
Although Constance - who countersued for $3 million in damages - dropped her court case in December, Gossip Girl star Leighton pursued the legal action in order to obtain a ruling stating that she does not owe her mother parental support. According to gossip website TMZ, Judge Gregory Alacron ruled yesterday that there was no valid agreement for Leighton to pay Constance any amount of money.

Leighton Meester Falls in Love With Everyone
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Dating,
The That's My Boy actress - who is in a relationship with artist Aaron Himelstein - is a romantic person and finds love an "intriguing" emotion because it can take so many forms.
"I love love. It's the most intriguing universally understood emotion, and it comes in so many forms; family love, love of friends. I fall in love with everybody all the time," she said.
While Leighton never used to want to marry or have children, she says she has now changed her mind because "I know now you don't have to be married to have children." However, she admits if she ever does marry, she would want to have an intimate celebration: "When I was a kid I thought marriage was sex, but if I ever am in a situation where I want to be married, I don't think I'll have a big wedding. Hopefully it would be about something way more secure than that."

Leighton Meester Performs Alongside Weezer
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Videos,
From covering Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” to sharing the living room stage with Taylor Swift, Weezer’s front man Rivers Cuomo seems to enjoy cozying up to cute pop stars as of late. Cuomo has now moved on to aspiring pop princesses, like Leighton Meester.
During an All Hallow’s Eve show in New York, the Gossip Girl actress performed a supposedly-spontaneous duet for the band’s latest single, “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To.”
While her voice is lost in the video (who wouldn’t be intimidated?), I’m more concerned about her multi-colored leggings, sci-fi-inspired jacket, and Amy Winehouse hair.

Vanity Fair’s Young Hollywood Issue
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Photos,
Earlier this year, Vanity Fair devoted one of its issues to the ‘Fresh Faces of 2008.’ Now the magazine is focusing its attention on ‘Hollywood’s New Wave.’ What’s the difference? I have absolutely no idea.
In the August edition, readers will be able to find some of the younger generation’s brightest stars (e.g. the cast of Gossip Girl, the Jonas Brothers). They’ll also be introduced to others still making their mark.
Will all of the chosen be names still heard years from now? Probably not. But that’s what makes these issues quite interesting to me. I always find it fun trying to predict those who’ll have lasting power and those who’ll burn out quickly.
You can see some of those youthful stars after the jump. The rest of them can be found here.
