Last week, the Gossip Girl cast returned to the set to start filming season three.

Here is a video (with no sound) showing Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass) and Leighton Meester (Blair Waldorf) filming a scene.

Chuck, dressed to the hilt in a suit, is talking on a cell phone while he helps Blair out of the car. Blair is wearing a gorgeous silver (or is it gold?) dress, as they walk down the street. Wonder who Chuck is talking to?

These videos (below the jump) shows a few more photos of Chuck and Blair together during that day of filming, and they hold hands at one point. Also on the video is Chace Crawford (Nate Archibald).

Leighton Meester arrived on the Gossip Girl set Monday wearing a sexy off-the-shoulder tie-die shirt with jeans, later changing her outfit for filming to an adorably cute floral dress.

Also spotted on set were her Gossip Girl co-stars Ed Westwick, Chace Crawford and Blake Lively.

Leighton Meester, who plays Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl, really let loose on Cobra Starship’s new video “Good Girls Go Bad.” The song is awesome, Leighton’s voice is really good and getting good reviews, and the video itself is pretty cool! And doesn’t Gabe from Cobra Starship look awesome in his white sunglasses!

Ever since we got a sneak peek of the video and track, it’s been a favorite of mine. It’s just one of those songs that I can listen to over and over without it getting old.

And it’s kinda fitting for Blair’s character as well, since she is paired up with Gossip Girl bad boy Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick). Chuck Bass definitely makes good girls go bad.… I wonder if they will feature the song on any of season three’s episodes.

Gossip Girl has returned to filming for season three, but during the break Leighton worked on her solo music album which should be coming out in the near future. I’m glad she took up this musical endeavor with Cobra Starship and look forward to more of her music.

Our favorite Gossip Girl stars are back on set filming for season three!

Ed Westwick (Chuck) and Leighton Meester (Blair) look pretty happy in the photos taken on the set in New York City on Monday. I wonder what their script reads like though? Are they happy and getting along? I love Blair’s very summery floral dress and it seems to go well with Chuck’s outfit.

In the photo below, Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford (Nate) admire a red Ferrari. According to Pacific Coast News, Chuck gives Nate the car.

Also on set was Blake Lively (Serena) in a robe. Follow the jump for more photos:

Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester will be making her music video debut in her collaboration with Cobra Starship’s “Good Girls Go Bad” video that will have its world premiere sometime today.

Here’s a 30-second preview of the “Good Girls Go Bad” video that shows Leighton Meester, but doesn’t show her singing (but she does sing in the video):

Here is the last “CobraCam” episode featuring a short interview with Leighton about working with the band:

This video is another preview:

I can’t wait to see the whole video!

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester (Blair Waldorf) made an appearance at MTV studios for “It’s On with Alexa Chung” this week, talking about her music career and the upcoming release of Cobra Starship’s new video “Good Girls Go Bad” which features Meester singing with the group.

During the video, members of Cobra Starship join her for the interview and an clip from the video, which will be released Monday, is shown.

You’ll notice there was no mention of the supposed Leighton Meeter “sex tape.” I don’t blame her for not answering questions. This was really the wrong time for that (if there ever is a right time). But hopefully the media hoopla over Michael Jackson and Farrah Faucett deaths will make the story disappear from the headlines.

In case you were caught up in rumors that Gossip Girl was casting for someone that would break up our beloved new couple Chuck and Blair (Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester), don’t worry.

According to Watch with Kristin on E! Online, Chuck and Blair “aren’t breaking up anytime soon.”

Hopefully, the Gossip Girl writers will give Chuck and Blair together time to work. I know at one point, Chuck said he couldn’t imagine “Chuck and Blair going to the movies,” but I hope they DO let us see them together do something more than fight.

I mean, we know they will have to “grow,” and we don’t want them to be boring together, but this is CHUCK AND BLAIR, so let the characters do their magic and it should all work out. In the long term, who knows what will happen between them. I just want to see them try.

In fact, Ed Westwick agrees. He recently said on a red carpet interview, that he wants the couple to “give it a go.”

And just as I am a big fan of Chuck and Blair, I know there are fans of other Gossip Girl couples out there as well.

Those of you who are fans of Blair and Nate, are you hoping that Nate and Serena end up together or do you like Nate with Vanessa? I know on a past poll, many people wanted Nate and Jenny to try again.

Personally, I just want Jenny to have a boyfriend. She needs something else besides school and fashion. She needs a love life like everyone else.

Here’s a great fan-made Gossip Girl video of what Chuck (Ed Westwick) was thinking before he FINALLY told Blair (Leighton Meester) that he loved her in the Season 2 finale. Something we “Chair” fans had been waiting all season for!

The producers definitely made us wait until the very end, but it was worth it knowing they are together now.

I wonder how Chuck and Blair together - and out of high school - will work when we return for season 3 this fall.

Hopefully, when they start filming Gossip Girl on the streets of New York in about a month, we will get a few clues.

Junior Celebs’ blogger Nikki Katz was on the scene of the MTV Awards on Sunday (I’m jealous!)and snapped a few photos of Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester (Blair Waldorf).

Leighton was wearing a beautiful black cut-out dress by Emilio de la Morena.

 Other celebrities she was able to photograph at the MTV Awards included Vanessa Hudgens, Miranda Cosgrove, Zac Efron, Ashley Tisdale, Monique Coleman, Kristen Stewart, Christian Serratos and Kellan Lutz.
