You are the person who matters to me most if you are there (subtext: you are more important than even the groom)

Remember the first time that Heidi thought she was going to get married and she looked normal? Well I do and this is different. This was the first dress she chose too bad she didn't change her mind about the guy.

Heidi and Spencer are running around town making amends and wedding plans. I hate the term princess wedding but I like the dress from Monique Lhuillier.

One more episode and LC is officially gone. She is palling around with Stephanie and it is only slightly awkward. Stephanie is trying to force her to come to the wedding, Heidi shows up at Peoples Rev. and Spencer even calls to apologize. LC and the girls go out to lunch and get all nostalgic. Lauren points out they all hated each other at one time or another because of Spencer. It seems she will not be attending the wedding.

Spencer finally decides to talk to LC because Charlie and his sister give him some advice which he actually takes. Heidi also begs him to be the bigger person and grow up. I just really like that Charlie he seems so reasonable (and I liked when he was dancing/rapping in the car). His apology is very sincere and he seems to really be doing it for her.

LC reminds me why I admire her. She lays it all out there. She tells Heidi exactly why she won't come, how much she has changed (for the worse) since being with Spencer, and cites specific examples of ways that Spencer has created negative situations in her life.

Audrina continues to make things awkward with Brody and Jayde. She wants people to "stop talking crap on" her. I absolutely refuse to watch the show with her. She is too dumb for me to stand it.

Kelly Cutrone comes and blasts Stephanie at the Nylon party. She is so ridiculous. Kelly seems so annoyed.

Previews for next week show that Kristen Cavalari is back. She will be the new main character. I had no idea. I don't know if I can watch it.

Music I liked from this show: The Script and Savage.
(am I playing into the hands of the marketing people or what?)

I don't want to be irrelevant

How appropriate Gossip Girl graduation coincides with one of my favorite New Yorker's own commencements. This series finale leaves me wondering what will become of gang next year as they are scattered to the winds of the ivy league colleges. Who am I kidding they are all going to stay in New York.

It seemed like there might be a Gossip Girl revealing but no such luck. Serena also believes that when she graduates she will be free of Gossip Girl and that the last blast will have been about her recent jail time. Gossip Girl ended up outing everyone with the titles that had been saved up over the years, sensational and true. The gang thinks she might be a senior Constance student.

Summer plans, College, and Gossip Girl Title for our cast of characters:
Dan- skulking around New York ,NYU ,ultimate insider (by far the best title)
Vanessa- backpacking through eastern Europe, NYU, no title
Blair- summer in the city contemplating failure of life,NYU,Weakling
Chuck- world traveler,who needs college,Coward
Serena- Europe trip/search for dad,Brown,After graduation irrelevant
Nate-Scheduled to be an intern at the mayors but changes after being hit on by the mayor to backpack in Europe as planned,Columbia,class whore

Serena wouldn't stop looking for the truth about gossip girl so she spilled all of the last secrets. Dan slept with the teacher, Vanessa and Chuck slept together, Blair slept with Chuck's uncle. Yikes.

Gossip Girl's final lesson of the evening is to teach them that they are all gossip girl and they are all bonded together by the truth.

Lily and Rufus smoke pot and drink beer to celebrate the graduation and to maintain the illusion of their youth. The trip down memory lane sparks a proposal. On again.

The search is on for the next queen of Constance. Luckily Blair still has some weight to throw around and she is going to use it to make Jenny the queen.

Chuck leaves and is all over Europe. Blair thinks he is running away. He is really traveling around collecting all of her favorite things and comes back to profess his love. Could there be a happy ending for the two of them? Stay tuned.

Evil Georgina is setting herself up to be a major player next season. She will be the roommate of Blair if she can work it right. We also see that Rufus and Lily's son, Scott, whom they think is dead, will be in New York trying to hang with Dan. He could be cute and charming.

Carter shows up and tells Serena he knows where her father is. He found him in Figi.

Question: What does it mean to loop someone? That is how Dan found Serena after the grad party at Nate's. I am so out of it. Am I irrelevant?

I don't know if I've ever made someone cry before

I can see Lauren slowly removing herself from the show. She can't even remember if she has ever made anyone cry before and soon she won't even be able to go to the video to check to see if her statements are true. Only two more episodes that include Lauren. Are they really going to keep it going without her?

Heidi's dad is coming to LA. He is a cowboy with a gun. No kidding I have experience with cowboys and he is the real deal. He has a handlebar mustache, a cowboy hat, denim shirt, and Carhart jeans. I hope he shoots Spencer. Unfortunately Heidi's dad seems to like Spencer and maybe even relate with him. He and Spencer go for a walk together and Spencer asks him for permission to marry Heidi, well sort of.


Audrina is working on the White Tie Affair video shoot. I know you are thinking the same thing as I was, who? They have a song and have apparently "worked" with Audrina before. Stephanie and Audrina go out for drinks with some of the guys but in a surprising twist she heads for the hills (haha) when she hears the guitarist lives with his girlfriend. Good for you Stephanie.


LC has to fire Stephanie. We all know it but we have to wait until nearly the end of the episode. Awkward. Lauren maybe should have taken her out of the very public office. Stephanie bursts into tears. It was pretty anticlimactic though. She knew that this could have been the consequence of her screw up and was sad but accepted the termination. (Is that what you call it when you are fired from an internship?) Stephanie tells Heidi and seems upset but in the same breath tells her about the guy from the band. She's over it.

Spencer takes Heidi on a Ferris wheel to propose...again. He has to do a lot of talking her into it. She wants apologies to her mom and LC and a princess wedding. Spencer agrees to it all. She loves the ring so that makes up for a lot. I will nickname the ring Stacie so I won't forget those things that it is making up for.

This is my moment. I own Prom.

What made Lily the woman she is? We get to have these sweet flashbacks into Lily's youth in California. I love all the 80's music and clothes. Don't worry Gwen Stefani was there in the 80's singing. (What the hell is Gwen Stefani doing on Gossip Girl? She hooks up with her sister in LA and heads to a coke filled preppy party. Lily meets a cute boy and fights with someone with the last name Vanderwoodson. The cute guys is a real find; great leather jacket, he solves Rubik's cubes, has a little Joaquin Phoenix vibe, and isn't afraid to fight. Then she heads to jail. Sounds familiar doesn't it. Is this show turning into a spinoff? I will be watching it, if for no other reason than to enjoy the 80's.




It is prom week. Dan goes to the jail with a suit and a dress and brings Serena to the Senior Prom. The girls are going to stuff the prom queen ballot box and to hurt Blair. Too bad Chuck is looking out for her and makes sure that she is Prom Queen and having the perfect night. He also gets her the key to the Penthouse at the Plaza for a little after prom party. Why is Chuck being so great right now? Why did he let her go?

In the end:
Lily forgives her mom.
Blair ends things with Nate.
Friends are forever. (Lily and Carole, Serena and Blair)

Next week is graduation.

As long as I don't see his face I'll be good

I have felt that way about Justin Bobby also.

I almost don't even want to blog about this one. I just want to skip over it and go to the next week. I feel like the producers just made this episode to meet the contractual obligations. It is set up for the awesomeness that will be next week.

Justin Bobby is back on the scene. Texting and calling. He wants to hook it back up with Audrina, after he heard that she was with Brody. She agrees to meet him for dinner and comes in guns blazing. She is done with this "she can't do this anymore". She throws every cliche in the book and he runs out into the street to talk with her some more.

Stephanie finally ruins her connections at People's Rev. Lauren is trying to help her figure it out but her mess up makes LC look like a fool. She is supposed to pack clothes for the Smashbox shoot, forgets to do it, then refuses to leave her lunch date and make up for the mistake. Kelly is furious and tells Lauren to fire Stephanie but Lauren heads back to her desk and puts it off for a few more days (she has until the end of the week, Kelly suggests she think guillotine).

Heidi goes to have one last confrontation with Stacie (who uses the word expecially) . I am not sure why this needs to happen. Picture the same conversation that they have had up to now. She does call Heidi crazy which has more and more truth to it. Heidi tells Spencer (who is busy minding his own business and twittering) what she did and he reacts calmly. He seems rational. What?

Can I just say the previews for next week are so sensational. I am counting down the days.

In other words she's a fauxcialite

Runners up for the title of this post:
"Those suits never did fit right."
"That is a Carrie Underwood song not a life choice."
"If you cut revenge out of the Bible there wouldn't even be enough to make a pamphlet."
But seriously fauxcialite. I love it.

Serena wants to trick Gabriel into giving the money back. She tries to lure him back with the "old pregnancy ruse". He says that he doesn't have the money Poppy does. It is very confusing because she said that he had all of it. Dan is freaking out and tells Lily. She says she will take care of everything. She is trying to protect Serena's rep by paying off the investors. Gabriel is off the hook but Poppy has to pay.

The gang realizes they need someone that nobody knows. Georgina is going to prove useful if they can talk her into it. She is crazy and way into God but this could work for the best. She also wants to be forgiven by Blair so she will do it. She gave Poppy all the Bible money to set her up and then she sent her on her way. Poppy is out and not arrested.

Too bad Serena got arrested instead. Lily set up Serena to save face publicly, keep her out of trouble, and teach her a lesson about following mom's directions. Serena is going to spend the night in jail.

All this scheming forces Blair to blame this on Georgina and then turns Georgina back to her old self. "Tell Jesus the bitch is back." Seriously who writes this show.

At some point things took a turn because Dan and Jenny are now okay with Rufus and Lily getting married. Rufus gets Eric's permission and is preparing to propose. Jenny tries to distract Lily while Rufus sets up for the proposal by telling her the entire plot of Twilight. Rufus finds out about the fake payoff that Lily set up to pay for Dan's tuition and the jailing of Serena. She sounds just like her mother. They will not be getting married any time soon.

Blair and Chuck are still in relationship limbo. She can't move on with Nate when he is there playing with her emotions. Is it real what they have together? Chuck let's her go. He doesn't mean it but he does it anyway. That would be the old Mariah Carey If you love someone you let them fly. Blair decides not to move in with Nate, he didn't want it either but they will be attending the prom. (Mariah tangent she was at the Pacquiao/Hatton fight this weekend with her husband and the announcers said "there's Mariah Carey and her crew." Sorry Nick Cannon you are still not famous enough. Although those boxing announcers are a little old and out of it that has to be a blow to one's ego. Also, yes, I like boxing.)

Next weeks gossip girl looks very interesting. Brittany Snow(she is adorable) will be playing Lily in the 80's and we are going to watch a flashback. I can't wait. This is a picture from the well regarded movie John Tucker Must Die. Yes, I watched this movie more than once. In my defense HBO constantly played it last year.

Deliberately... Maliciously...Skankily

Stacy texts Spencer and asks him if he is going to HWood. Heidi like any trusting girlfriend-turned-fiance-turned-wife-turned-girlfriend checks his phone, erases the message, and goes in his place. Stacy and her posse roll up to Heidi at HWood and sit down. Heidi wishes this upon her. Stacy's reply,"when I am gone there is going to be another girl. There is going to be another Stacy." Impressive

Equally crazy. Frankie is throwing a party and Audrina decides to show. She has now changed her tune and does not want to fight Jayde. She is actually lying about what happened. So is everyone else, I mean unless, they actually did just fall asleep in Brody's bed talking about Jayde and JB. I know Jayde was a playmate but she is not that stupid. Audrina seems to think that she and Brody are going to develop some relationship, or thinks that she has more of a tie to him. She is busy telling Stephanie how sure she is. When they see each other out again Brody does not stand up for her and sends her packing. She is crying and sloppy drunk. How could he choose his girlfriend over her? She does not understand how cheating works.

On a personal note: I am very sick of those voices. I am sure you are familiar with the sound. They have a strange inflection and could be said to be talking in questions (Michelle coined that phrase and I like it) They are also higher pitched and just downright irritating. I have noticed that not only does Paris Hilton have this voice but so do the Kardashian sisters. Audrina uses this voice as do many of our reality tv friends. Stacy the bartendress has a very strong stupid voice although I think she may be prophetic in the there will always be another Stacy. She isn't as dumb as she seems. I think that this is a new way to play dumb or maybe it is an old way. I think Marilyn Monroe sounded something like that. I hate to equate her with the likes of these reality personalities.

Back at couples therapy; Spencer is incensed by the fact that Heidi is looking at his phone. Violation of trust. Heidi is sick of hearing about Spencer's feelings. He is allowed to share them (the therapist said) ad naseum. Well Heidi is nauseous and I am shocked. She knows what that means. Where am I?

Audrina shows up for a debrief meal with Lo and LC she is wearing a crazy Boy George hat and whining about how Brody would not stick up for it. LC then goes and have lunch with Brody and tell him to be nice and apologize. He has to stick by Jayde.

Spencer has an alone ses. with the therapist. He still doesn't know what to do. He actually sounded like he had thought about it and was not being a defensive ass. Am I on Spencer's side? Luckily I don't care enough about either one of them to take a side.

Upcoming: Heidi goes to yell at Stacy again and Audrina finally gets rid of JB. Could this new found empowerment have something to do with the fact that Audrina has her own spin off in the works. Honestly, even I don't want to watch that.
