Looks like Gossip Girl‘s lone black girl (oh, wait we forgot about non-talking Nicole Fiscella!) is getting some company. The CW has just cast veteran actress Gina Torres as Vanessa Abrams’ mom!
Torres, who we LOVED in Chris Rock’s I Think I Love My Wife, will play Gabriela Abrams, a “free spirit” who lives “off the grid” in Vermont.
We can’t wait for this new injection of color!

Passover dinner was never as fun as on Gossip Girl! With Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) pretending to be together with Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley) and not married to Gabriele (Armie Hammer), and Dan pretending to not be a cater waiter and taking Elijah’s seat at the dinner table, it was the most entertaining Jewish holiday ever.
Here are Blindie’s TOP 10 moments from Gossip Girl’s “Seder Anything” episode:
- We love Blair Waldorf’s (Leighton Meester) cockney accent as she channels Eliza Doolittle in her My Fair Lady dream sequence.
- Still lovin’ that zinger dialogue: Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick) declares “I’m a 17 year-old billionare with incredible stamina,” referring to his sexual prowess; and Dan confesses he’s Eleanor’s “bitch boy” for the night as he caters her Passover dinner.
- Blair strikes a deal with the devil, er, Nate Archibald’s grandfather to convince Nate to go to Yale instead of Columbia. And when she doesn’t deliver, the old man sells her up the river!
- It’s all about the verbal smack down! First, Nate tells off his grandfather for snitching on his corrupt father in front of a roomful of partygoers, then Little Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) serves up some sharp words as she tells off little orphan Chuck for his womanizing ways.
- Chuck can’t have sex with the same random girl twice?! Really? Who the hell does he think he is? Oh yeah, he’s a 17 year-old billionaire. Carry on!
- “Williamsburg is already over,” the art dealer at Eleanor Waldorf’s seder dinner declares. You heard that hipsters? GG has decreed it and so it is!
- A little remorse goes a long way! Chuck apologizes for nearly raping Jenny last year (it’s about time!) and Blair apologizes for plotting with Nate’s grandfather, snubbing her stepfather Cyrus’ seder dinner and turning her nose up at NYU.
- Just when we thought Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr) was going to be upgraded to Manhattan bitch status she disappears! And where is Dorota? Probably off filming her own spin-off.
- Serena isn’t really married?! What a fake out! We thought she was going to get her first quickie-d.
- Come on people, this is the Upper East Side where Bar Mitzvahs are more common than Communions and these people can’t even get past the third stage of the dinner! And how sacrelig was it when when Dan sat in Elijah’s seat and Serena and Eleanor drank the wine before they even dipped the parsley in the salt water? “Oy gevalt!”

The Humphreys might be resisting the Upper East side lifestyle but it looks like Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr) has signed up for some penthouse scandal as she joins forces and lips with Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick).
Here are Blindie’s TOP 10 moments from Gossip Girl‘s “Remains of the J” episode:
- Dan Humphrey (Penn Bagdley) has been denied financial aid from Yale! Economic crisis indeed!
- Dan reciting the theme song to The Jeffersons as he rides up the elevator on the East side to a deluxe apartment in the sky!
- Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) tries to win Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) back and Vanessa Abrams and Chuck Bass hook-up out of revenge -yeah, because that always works like charm.
- We live for those little touches of NY authenticity, like famed party photographer Patrick McMullan at Little Jenny’s sweet sixteen party!
- We love when art imitates life! Blair got it on with Carter Basin in last week’s episode and now Chuck and Vanessa are locking lips -and both are real life couples!
- We also love that the Gossip Girl domestics like Blair’s maid and Serena’s doorman are Russian and not the stereotypical Latinos.
- Serena is tired of high school life so she jets off to Spain and OMG, she’s married in the next episode!
- The love child of Lily and Rufus has resurfaced and he’s made contact with Dan!
- Nate is definitely a manwhore! He tells Blair he wants to be with her, “but not like that,” then makes out with her! Make up your mind Nate!
- Vanessa’s storyline has just been upgraded as she beds Chuck! Finally!

Gossip Girl star Jessica Szohr is the cover girl for the April issue of Lucky magazine.
Blindie assumes hooking up with delicious bad boy, costar Ed Westwick, must’ve upped Szohr’s fame ante, nabbing the ethnic girl of the CW’s teen hit her first solo cover!

There’s finally evidence that Gossip Girl costars Ed Westwick and Jessica Szohr are an item!
The two hot stars of The CW were snapped locking lips Monday night at the New York Knicks-Los Angeles Lakers Game at New York’s Madison Square Garden. (Also, direct your attention to Cheech Marin right behind them!)
It was only in November that Westwick and Szohr were first spotted kissing at a Dallas airport.

Gossip Girl‘s ethnic beauty Jessica Szohr went solo to a Teen Vogue sponsored shopping event at the 57th Street Louis Vuitton store in New York Thursday night.
At the event, the pretty starlet dished to WWD how she rings in the holidays.
“I have Christmas at my grandma’s house in Wisconsin,” Szohr said. “She makes a cake that says ‘Happy Birthday Jesus’ on it and we all sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to Jesus.”
Blindie wonders whether she’ll be making a Jesus cake for costar and reported beau Ed Westwick?

Hey Gossip Girl fanatics! Seems like you’ll have a lot more dish coming to you in 2009 when The CW premieres their in-development spinoff of the trash-tastically amazing series.
While Variety reports that the spinoff will not center on book’s spinoff, The It Girl, it will focus on one of the show’s nine regular characters, introducing the spinoff as a backdoor pilot later this season.
So who will be spun-off?
Blindie’s suggestion would be to send Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr) to an artsy college where she meets crazy bohemian types and can leave the world of the Upper East Side behind.
But our money probably would go to Little Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen), even though Variety says it ain’t so, who’ll probably run away from home and start her new life on the streets as an urban fashion designer!
