Battle of the blondes: Blake Lively and Katie Cassidy are all dressed up with nowhere to go as they share some steely glances on set


Blake Lively, Leighton Meester and Jessica Szohr looked absolutely gorgeous on set this week, displaying some stunning costumes as they filmed Gossip Girl.

Problem, darling? Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick look perfect together


All the girls have been in floor-length gowns and high heels with glamorous hair and make-up this week.

The actress looked like her old stunning self again as she smooched with Sam Wise on set.

The glamorous Gossip Girl actress says it was important to her to 'look different and authentic" for Affleck's heist film, in which she plays a young mother living in a poor part of Boston.

'I was shooting Gossip Girl at the same time so I couldn't do anything that I couldn't go back to Gossip Girl with the next day,' she explained.

'I'd wear these awful acrylic fingernails and do my make up with a tonne of eye liner the night before so I'd wake up and it'd be fallen down my face.'

'It's not just the way I looked but it's the way you feel with the nails and the grimy hair and face, with that came the accent and the attitude.

'I loved the opportunity to be someone so vastly different and escape,' she said.
