It's no surprise when actors fall in love while working closely together on set. Look at Bogie and Bacall, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson and Bennifer.. it's safe to assume the same would happen to a cast of young, ridiculously good-looking people like those from Gossip Girl. The long hours, close quarters and buttoned-up cashmere cardigans would make anyone go crazy, right? But in this case, Cupid has been working overtime to turn GG's romances from reel to real life. Let's take a look at the misses and matches:
* Penn Badgley and Blake Lively:
Penn and Blake have known each other since they were 11-years-old, but the sparks didn’t fly until they began working on Gossip Girl in 2007. They’ve remain one of the most solid couples in Young Hollywood and often keep a low profile. Lucky for them, their on-screen character’s off-and-on romance has been a continuing storyline for Gossip Girl. While their GG relationship is back off, their Leighton Meester Sebastian Stan Gossip Girlon-screen love remains strong.
* Leighton Meester and Sebastian Stan:
While some believe Leighton fell for Sebastian after his first season guest appearance on Gossip Girl, it was actually co-star Chace Crawford who played Cupid for the couple. Together since last year, Leighton and Sebastian took their love on-screen in this past week’s episode where Sebastian’s bad boy character Carter Baizen tempts Blaire over to the dark side. Leighton gushes, "He reminds me of Ray Liotta."
* Chace Crawford and Taylor Momsen:
While their romance didn't last long, Chace and Taylor were another couple who's relationship went from reel to real. Despite their eight year age difference, rumors spread like wild fire when gossip sites caught Chace and Taylor smooching at a number of places in New York City. But that was short-lived. Whether or not the rumors were true, Chace and Taylor remain to be two of the last single people on the GG cast. That's good news for the ladies!

The latest Gossip Girl romance to stun fans (and disappoint women) is that of Jessica and Ed. The two were first outed as a couple when Jessica and Ed were seen spending Thanksgiving weekend together. They have since become attached at the hip, whether it's at a Knicks game or trips to Miami.
Can Josh Schwartz transition from the world of writing teen soaps to an action-packed, comic-book-based feature movie? It looks like he’s going to get the chance.
