I have to admit that when I read the premise of Gossip Girl, and even when a friend outlined the characters for me, it really didn’t appeal to me in any way. I had enjoyed ‘The O.C.’, well at least the first 2 seasons - but another programme about spoilt rich kids, this time in New York? C’mon. However, by chance, on the Thursday before last I caught the second episode. I wasn’t immediately hooked, I guess partially because I had missed the first one, but also because I didn’t find any of the characters particularly easy to relate to. And I will freely admit that a large part of the reason I continued watching was because of Nate’s pretty, pretty face (don’t worry after a couple more episodes, def a Chuck fan, Chuck all the effing way) – I’m not ashamed… well perhaps a little.
Anyway, this is beside the point. I watched, and the part that made me change my mind about Gossip Girl; Chuck and his weird threesome – no; Nate and Chuck talking about death by scarf – intriguing, humorous even, but no; the extremely hot ‘older’ male character - Rufus - making an appearance – sadly, no…you get the idea. The conversation between Bart Bass and Chuck was important though. It signalled to me that perhaps the characters were not as 2D as I had first presumed. But it was the confrontation scene that ‘sealed the deal’ for me. It was perfectly orchestrated. The sheer glee that Blair derived from announcing to Dan that yes, she did in fact know where Serena was, the look of fear and shame on Serena’s face, Dan looking perplexed, Nate looking…well pretty, and then there was Chuck who arrived and chimed in with an ‘I know everything’, before sharing what he knew in the most devastating and crude way possible (dear God I love Chuck). The circling cameras, the close-ups, the quick retorts. I savoured every moment. In particular this bit, which I think warrants some direct quoting:
"Dan: (to Blair) Did you talk to my sister?
Chuck: Ah yes. Little Jenny. I do believe she and I have some unfinished business.
(just a quick heads up for anyone who hasn’t watched the show, by “unfinished business” Chuck means…I guess there’s no easy way to say it…he means unfinished rape – my fellow blogger and I do not condone rape in any circumstance, but he is Chuck Bass, and rest assured he does not attempt to rape anyone again, well not in the episodes so far anyways.)
Dan: You stay away from her.
Chuck: Poor Daniel. So little time, so many sluts to defend.
Dan pushes Chuck, and not in a friendly nudge kinda way."
This causes a truly awesome scene at what is supposed to be a super-posh brunch. Blair of course revels in the mayhem, as is I think perfectly illustrated by this screencap:
As for Chuck, I'll let this picture do all the talking:
After this episode I went back to my room and downloaded all the episodes, and watched them one right after the other. The series in fact improves almost exponentially from the pilot onwards. That includes the script, storylines, soundtrack, character development, camera work, and even the acting. About the acting. For what is supposedly a teen drama (though I would argue that the demographic for the show is older, I’m not sure if I had a 12/13/14 or even 15 year old whether I would let them watch the show) I find that acting pretty decent and solid, and at times exceptional. There are one or two ‘actors’ that possibly have achieved their position on the show for reasons other than their talent – they shall remain nameless. But I would like to take this opportunity to applaud the following members of the cast, though this is not necessarily to say that I do not appreciate the efforts of the other cast members:
1.
Kelly Rutherford – she brings a certain vulnerability to her role as Lily van der Woodsen, whilst at the same time managing to maintain the appropriate level of respectability for a woman of her wealth and stature.
2.
Kristen Bell – Ok so she’s not exactly ‘on the show’ but her voice and every intonation are perfect for the Gossip Girl. I can’t imagine anyone else narrating or saying phrases as “Spotted. Chuck Bass, drunk off his ass.” How I love to hate you GG.
3.
Leighton Meester – at times she is able to be the biggest, baddest bitch in the world, and almost with the flick of a switch she is able to be vulnerable, exposed, naïve, sentimental and even sweet. And yet her character - Blair Waldorf - is always believable.
4.
Ed Westwick – if you’ve ever seen him interviewed it’s difficult to believe that it’s the same person that plays Chuck Bass. I am quite frankly in awe of his acting ability, especially as he’s not received any formal training in any acting school and is only 20. He is truly a naturally talented actor. First, he’s British (from Stevenage – near London) complete with English accent in the ‘real world’ (but what is the ‘real world’? I ask you), but his American accent is absolutely perfect, flawless. Second, he seems to be completely unlike his character (although recent stories of his partying and womanising in NY’s clubs and bars would suggest otherwise) – shy, plays in an indie band (Chuck Bass in a band, can you imagine? It would be like Paris Hilton on Mastermind), is apparently a one-woman man, wears Doherty-esque hats…etc. I mean sure he does have some of the best lines in the series, but the facial expressions he pulls, the way he delivers the lines, his mannerisms, everything is just perfect. He, like Leighton, can go from one extreme to another; vulnerable and insecure in front of Bart Bass, to SUPREME PERV RULER OF THE WORLD in front of pretty much everyone else. When I’m watching I often wonder just how much of his movements and the way he plays with the objects around him is improvised and how much is planned. Case in point the pool scene in episode 10, Hi Society:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3MGumwum8kAlso please note how awesome his outfit is in this scene. How many people do you know who could honestly pull off this outfit? Aside from Chuck Bass I would propose Johnny Depp, but I think that’s about it in the WHOLE, ENTIRE UNIVERSE.
In fact, I think at the end of this article I might conclude with
Chuck’s 5 greatest fashion moments.
5.
Robert John Burke – aka Bart Bass. Though it is unclear as to why exactly Chuck is so terrified/in awe of him, Mr Burke does give off an aura of power (perhaps even ‘evil power’), which is not easy to do, especially when in most of his scenes he is trying to act in a fatherly manner towards Chuck, or wooing Lily.
KUDOS to all of you who made it on my list – you have pleased me, and I am sure many others.
Don’t let me down.
So why, aside from the acting, should you watch Gossip Girl? The characters. I really did love Seth (before he got all whiny), Summer, Sandy, Kirsten, Julie and a few others from The O.C., but none of them has quite grabbed my attention as much as Chuck (surprise, surprise), Blair, Lily, and Serena. Using your powerful skills of deduction I think you have probably elucidated that I love the character of Chuck Bass. He’s mischievous, misguided, manipulative, conniving, scheming, witty, arrogant, pervy, and an all round bad-boy. But watch episode 4 (Bad News Blair) or episodes 7 (Victor/Victrola), 8 (Seventeen Candles), 10 (Hi, Society), and 13 (A Thin Line Between Chuck and Nate) and I guarantee you’ll see a different side of him. A more vulnerable, caring and gentle side. A side that is able to feel affection. A side that only Nate and Blair have ever been exposed to. Plus Chuck really makes me laugh. Time for some classic Chuck quotes. Please note that if you intend to begin watching and don’t want any spoilers then perhaps you’d best avoid these:
1.“Serena look effin hot last night. There's something wrong with that level of perfection. It needs to be violated.”
2.“Poor Daniel. So little time, so many sluts to defend.”
3.“Chuck: If I knew his name, I'd kill him.
Nate: Because you kill people now? What, you gonna hunt him down with your scarf?
Chuck: Don't mock the scarf, Nathaniel. It's my signature.”
4.“Let's catch up. Take our clothes off. Stare at each other.”
5.“You guys have been dating since kindergarten and you still haven't sealed the deal.”
6.“Don’t eff with an Effer.”
7.“Chuck: This is some good stuff.
Nate: I'm gonna need it. Blair's mum's at the country house.
Chuck: Yeah? Well then maybe I should swipe some of my dad's Viagra. Nate looks nonplussed. Or my mom's Paxil? Nathaniel, you're finally about to have sex with your girlfriend. It's like you're headed to your execution.
Nate: No man. I'm good.
Chuck: Talk to Chuck, buddy. You and Blair have been dating forever. Now there's a problem?Nate: There's no problem. It's just; do you ever feel like our lives have been planned out for us? That we're just going to end up like our parents?
Chuck: That's a dark thought.
Nate: Aren't we entitled to choose? Just to be happy?
Chuck: Look, easy Socrates. What we're entitled to is a trust fund. Maybe a house in the Hamptons. A prescription drug problem. But happiness does not seem to be on the menu. So smoke up, and seal the deal with Blair. 'Cause you're also entitled to tap that ass.”
8.“Why should I be an usher? I’m Chuck Bass.” (Pure Chucky-goodness.)
9.“Chuck: I’m honoured to be playing even a small role in your deflowering.
Blair: You’re disgusting.
Chuck: Yes, I am. So why be shy?”
10.“Nate: Can't you just call it a watch?
Chuck: If it costs more than 10 grand it deserves a proper name.” (So true.)
11.“I heard about the field hockey through down. All those mouth guards and short skirts I hope somebody filmed it.”
12.“I am a bitch when I wanna be.”
13.“Don’t get your La Perlas in a bunch.”
14.“You look ravishing. If I was your man I wouldn’t need clues to find you.”
15.“You were amazing up there.”
16.“Good eye docu-girl. I'll be taking the tape now.”
17.“You've lived through Ivy Week and hopefully gained entry into the college of your choice. Now. Let's ruin those chances. Let me remind you of the rules. As of this moment there is no outside world that I do not show you. You eat what I provide, practice what I preach. Until I say so, the only girls you talk to are the ones I paid for. Now, let the lost weekend commence.”
18.“Chuck: Who brought the sasquatch?
Nate: Isn't that Carter Basin? I haven't seen him since the eighth grade when he was in the tenth. He looks intense.
Chuck: Are you high? He looks like Matthew McConaughey between movies. The guy's a loser. Look, anyone who trades their trust fund for a fanny pack flies in the face of all that is holy to Chuck Bass.” (Few things can make laugh as much as this scene.)
19.“ This is the lost weekend for juniors, not senior citizens. Go jump into a volcano.”
20.“Having remorse sex fantasies about your ex?”
21.“Don’t give in to your parents’ wishes if they’re not your desires.”
22.“Little Jenny Humphrey manages to get my pants off and have me not enjoy it. Quite the accomplishment.”
23.“Looks like it’s just you and me. Apparently my room’s available.”
24.“Jenny: Let's play a game.
Chuck: I'd say strip poker. But I don't have any cards.”
25.“Nate: I know you're there, I can hear you breathing on the other side of the door.
Chuck: [opens door] Nathaniel!
Nate: Where's the girl?
Chuck: In my dreams. I was trying to get some shut-eye. What's on your mind?
Nate: Just my mum.
Chuck: Sounds Freudian.”
26.“Blair: From this moment forward, the events of last night will never be mentioned again, is that clear?
Chuck: Not as clear as the memory of you purring in my ear, which I have been replaying over and over...
Blair: Well, erase the tape! Because as far as I'm concerned, it never happened.
Chuck: I'll see you at your party tonight.
Blair: You're officially uninvited.
Chuck: Never stopped me before!”
27.“Bart Bass: Why do you think I do all this? Huh? This party is for you, okay, so you can meet people. You know, become a part of something, make some kind of change.
Chuck: Really? I thought it was another excuse for an open bar and, ah, rehiring of the nearly-nude statues.
Bart: Do me a favour, will you? Lose the Scotch. It's barely noon.”
28.“Dan: Does this have anything to do with why you were waiting for Serena this morning?Blair: You were what?
Chuck: And here I thought you were waiting for me.
Dan: Oh exactly what this situation needs, Chuck. Now what is going on here?
Blair: We were just getting to that.
Serena: Blair, please, don't do this.
Blair: Sorry, did you want to tell him?
Chuck: I'll tell him.
Serena and Nate: You know?
Chuck: I know everything.
Dan: And apparently I know nothing.
Serena: Look, Dan, it was a long time ago and I regret it.
Chuck: Look, Serena, stop trying to pretend you're a good girl. So you slept with your bestfriend's boyfriend. I kind of admire you for it.”
29.“Blair: As is tradition on the day before my birthday, I'm heading to the jewellery to put some pieces on hold for Eleanor and...
Chuck: Nate? Oh, I don't think he'll be singing Happy Birthday this year.
Blair: No one knows that Nate and I broke up, and it's going to stay that way until I can fix this. And I don't think you're best friend would still be you best friend is he knew...
Chuck: If he knew how much I enjoyed the removal of a certain chastity belt in the back of this very limo?”
30.“Chuck: (sees Blair coming out of church) Well, this is the last place I'd expect to find you.
Blair: Go away, Chuck! I've been given orders, practically from God himself, to avoid you.
Chuck: Would you consider avoiding me over breakfast?”
31.“Look... I care about three things, Nathaniel. Money, the pleasures money brings me, and you.”
32.“Blair: Enough with the blackmail, aren't you bored already? I can't avoid Nate forever.
Chuck: I didn't say forever, just until the sight of you two together doesn't turn my stomach.
Blair: And when will that be?
Chuck: Only time will tell, I'm afraid. So unless you want dear Nathaniel to know how you lost your virginity to me in the back of a moving vehicle, I encourage patience and restraint.
Blair: Isn't there someone else you can torture?
Chuck: Probably, but I choose you.”
33.“How about I turn that one-piece to a no-piece?”
34.“Chuck: You looked hot on Prince Theodore's arm, today.
Blair: Is that what I am to you, just an accessory?
Chuck: Next to him, yes. On me, you'd be so much more.”
35.“Serena: Hi, Chuck.
Chuck: Please, call me brother.”
36.“Chuck: Poor little Humphrey Dumpty. Look, let me clarify something for you. Regardless of who you're currently sleeping with, you and I come from different worlds. In my world, if I'm suspended or expelled, a wing is donated in the Bass name.
Dan: That sounds like quite a world.
Chuck: It's not perfect, I'll admit.”
37.“Chuck: You know, if my dad and your mom come back from South Africa tomorrow engaged we'll be brother and sister. And you know what they say, the family that plays together stays together.
Serena: Ah. Incest, the universal taboo. One of the, uh, only ones you haven't violated.
Chuck: I'm game if you are.”
38.“Chuck: I love this town. I'm going to have to tell my parents the hotel they just bought is serving minors.
Serena: And if you get a drink they're also serving pigs.
Chuck: I love it when you talk dirty.
Serena: You just love it when a girl talks to you.
Chuck: Actually I prefer it when they're not talking.
Serena: Hm. I've missed your witty banter.”
39.“Chuck: It's a facility for the disturbed or addicted.
Blair: You must have your own wing.
Chuck: You don't get nearly enough credit for your wit.”
40.“Chuck: So this is your bed, huh?
Blair: Get out.
Chuck: You can repay me another time.”
41.“If you wanted to play rough, all you had to do was ask.”
42.“You sure?” (the awesomeness of this quote is not immediately apparent, but Chuck asks it right before dipping his shalaly into Blair, so it’s definitely not rape, and a positive step forward for Chuck I think.)
43.“Chuck: Who’s the new girl?
Girl: She's a freshman.
Chuck: I love freshman, there so…
Girl: Fresh.”
44.“Chuck: As much as I love the speech about not needing material things from a guy who has that much product in his hair, this party is about excess. Not exposition. Stop talking. Start partying. Two girls sidle up beside him. Now here is something that doesn't need material. As a matter of fact it's about to come off. Who's with me?
Nate: I think I'm just gonna hang here for a bit.
Chuck: Fine. I'd hate to break up a matched set anyway.”
45.“Chuck: What is Carter still doing here?
Nate: I invited him.
Chuck: Or he invited himself. That is his style. Begging us to break free of our prisons while stuffing his face with free food and draining our booze. He's a deadbeat and a hypocrite.”
46.“And remember, don't dip your shalaly in the wrong pot o' gold.”
47.“Chuck: So what exactly are you looking for?
Nate: Evidence.
Chuck: Of what? The Captain's dislike of starchy shirts? I totally sympathise. The collars chafe.”
48.“What happens at Victrola, stays at Victrola.”
49.“Nathaniel. Your position in my esteem has been replaced by your voicemail.”
50.“Random Dude: Who's that girl?
Chuck: I have no idea.”
51.“Blair: You sound like a jealous boyfriend.
Chuck: Yeah right. You wish.
Blair: No. You wish.
Chuck: Please. You forget who you're talking to.
Blair: So do you. Do you... like me?
Chuck: Define like.
Blair: You have got to be kidding. I do not believe this.
Chuck: How do you think I feel? I haven't slept. I feel sick, like there's something in my stomach. Fluttering.
Blair: Butterflies? Oh no no no. This is not happening.
Chuck: No one is more surprised or ashamed than I am.
Blair: Chuck. You know that I adore all of God’s creatures and the metaphors that they inspire. But, those butterflies? Have got to be murdered.”
52.“She does have a certain glow about her, doesn't she?”
53.“Like the book says, she's just not that into you.” (once again you need to watch the scene)
54.“Chuck: We just need to wait until we can get him in a public place. Everyone who thinks he's changed will see the truth. Then we can get him back for everything he's done to you, and everything he's doing to Blair.
Nate: Yeah, when's that going to happen, huh?
Chuck: I have a feeling it may be sooner than you think.”
55.“Carter to Blair: And now for someone with only one left foot.
Chuck to Nate: He just told her what he's going to do to her later.”
56.“Blair: So we all know who this works.
Chuck: No one talks, no one gets into trouble.
Nate: Who did break in, anyway?
Chuck: Guess we don't have to worry about Nate cracking under pressure.”
57.“Chuck: You're taking the paper seriously.
Nate: This isn't the paper, it's a heartfelt letter to Blair.
Chuck: A heartfelt letter? Who spayed you, man? Blair doesn't even want you. She's been crystal about that since we got back.”
58.“Chuck to Dan: In case you're wondering, you narc, I only took that key from the party to hide it that we wouldn’t all get blamed. Including you.”
59.“About getting knocked up? I must say I'm disappointed you weren't more careful.”
60.“I'll try to be more succinct. You held a certain fascination when you were beautiful, delicate and untouched. But now you're like one of the Arabians my father used to own. Rode hard and put away wet. I don't want you anymore. And I can't see why anyone else would.”
61.“Something this beautiful deserves to be seen on someone worthy of its beauty. I really am sorry.” (Ahhhh…)
62.“Chuck: How glad are you to see our families merge, Sis?
Serena: So glad that if you ever call me that again it'll be the last thing you ever say, Chuck. Chuck: I love it. Our first brother-sister squabble. Well I hope you're going to make yourself available for more missed childhood memories. Bathing together, for example.”
63.“Chuck: [Chuck comes over, puts his hand on her knee but she tosses it away] I was just looking out for my family. The new Van Der Woodsen-Bass library should be completed for Eric's graduation.
Bart: I can see that Lily and I are going to have our hands full with the two of you.”
64.“Serena: Oh my god, this is so good! Thank you!
Chuck: You know, if you really want to thank me, I've got a few ideas...
Serena: It's just a sandwich, Chuck.” (Attempted rape then ensues.)
65.“Chuck: Who is that?
Blair: Probably some bitch from Chapin.
Chuck: A hot bitch from Chapin.”
66.“Some of us are trying to regain our strength.”
67.“Never get your blood going either.”
68.“I’d just like to say how proud I am of Miss Waldorf and her commitment to Mr Archibald even though he ruined her 17th birthday and slept with…”
69.“I have truly died and gone to heaven.” (This quote is tres magnifique because at the time Chuck is wearing a devil ensemble, complete with mask – please see end of article.)
70.“You are really talented.” (To a stripper who just tied a knot in a cherry stalk using just her tongue.)
71.“Nate: Could you find out who she’s seeing?
Chuck: Me.
Nate: Yes. C’mon man. Who better?
Chuck: Who better indeed.” (The perfectly disguised confession, Chuck you old dog.)
72.“Chuck: Nathaniel, ready to wake and bake?
Nate: We have our interviews today.
Chuck: My point exactly. I have my one-hitter.”
73.“Look I’m not going to tell Nate about us. I tortured her, got bored, moved on.”
74.“Alfonso made me an omelette. I may have washed it down with a Bellinis or two.”
75:“Chuck: Care to make a wager. If he calls I’ll leave you alone forever. If he calls you spend the night with me.
Blair: I will not.
Chuck: Thought you were sure.”
I’m too excited. Words cannot express…look I realise I’ve already spent way too much time on Chuck. So I’ll move on.
Blair, like Chuck has two-sides, and though I don’t exactly relate to her, I can at times sympathise with her (plus she adds comedic value and has a very pretty face and tight bod). I think that’s the beauty of the series; very few people will ever be in any of the exact situations that the characters are in because their lives are so extreme. Hence, Gossip Girl is perhaps not a deep, insightful or soul-searching programme. But it is entertaining and compelling viewing. Plus, a lot of the issues, i.e. gossip, high school, divorce, are relevant to most people’s lives whether they be teenagers or adults. The relationships between the characters are almost always intriguing, often more so than the characters themselves, and I do find myself caring for characters I never imagined I would (case in point Chuck, Blair, Lily, maybe even the at times grating Jenny). I really like Lily – I’m not sure why – and Serena is like the friend you wished you had in high school; bubbly, friendly, kind, popular, outgoing, pretty…etc. Dan I am fond of, but his self-righteousness does annoy me a little.
Other reasons to watch the show include the great soundtrack, (GG is doing for pop what The O.C. did for indie/rock) and the fashion – which, rightly so, has developed a big following.
But now for why you should be excited about its return.
Let’s assume the return of Chuck Bass to our screens is a given, and discuss the Van der Basses. Yes, the Van der Woodsen family and the Bass family are about to merge and I foresee delectable, combustible and delicious situations on the horizon. There’s definitely gonna be trouble ahead. First there’s Lily and Bart – will he realise that she’s just not that into him? Then there’s Eric and Serena. Will they be able to adjust to the new living conditions? Next up Lily and Chuck. I love their relationship and I suspect it will develop. Not in a Luke-Julie kinda way, but more Lily being the maternal figure that Chuck has always craved. Also a character is being outed – various reliable sources state it is Eric (which is hardly news, it’s been suspected for a long time). I think that Eric will love being Chuck’s brother, and that Chuck will love having someone he can ‘nurture’, so to speak. And if the gay rumours are true maybe Eric will love Chuck a little too much. And finally Serena vs Chuck. This is going to be explosive, and if the previews are anything to go by, I think my head might just explode from the awesomeness and hilarity of it.
So that’s 2 reasons so far. An outed character and the Van der Basses. Recent promo shots have indicated a romance developing between Vanessa and Nate apparently he’s attracted to her because she’s so unlike the Upper East Side girls, i.e. has no money and is not completely bitchy. This pleases me. Nate has not really grown on me I think partially cos of a serious lack of character development, but also because of the crappy storylines he’s been given – finally he has a storyline that might actually go somewhere interesting and new. This development also pleases me because Vanessa’s constant meddling in Serena and Dan’s relationship is becoming extremely tiresome and her character often comes across as…well…quite frankly rude, what with the inviting herself to parties and videotaping people without their permission, or maybe the climbing into someone’s room without asking beforehand. Maybe now Vanessa will leave Dan and Serena in peace. I can only hope and pray that this is so. Make it so Josh Schwartz. Make it so.
And now to Blair and Chuck. I love them soooo much together it is untrue (they are my new Buffy and Angel, although I did kinda like Buffy and Angelus and Buffy and Spike) and one person on a blog or something said they were like a modern day Scarlett O’Hara and Rhett Butler, which I completely concur with. From the screencaps and rumours it appears that there is a reconciliation on the cards involving flowers and Chuck standing up for Blair. But who knows. Here’s a screencap from an upcoming episode:
Ah, the matching headband and coat. They look so good together and would make such beautiful babies. I love Waldass.
And now an attempt to describe the outfit. Well first off it’s incredibly camp and gay, with the headband adding a whole new dimension of gayness. Also what the chauffeur in the first picture is probably trying to figure out, and what I, after several viewings, am still trying to figure out is what the hell the print is supposed to be. It looks like it’s part of some kind of Budweiser ad campaign. Or perhaps something Chuck bought from a tourist stand/gift shop when visiting the crown jewels in London. I dunno, but whatever it is the whole outfit looks incredible. I hope Chuck has some bodyguards though, because some dude probably tried to beat him up on the court because of it.
1. And yes, you guessed it. At the no.1 spot it’s the pool outfit. It doesn’t get much more rapey than this my friends – if I had to define rape with one outfit it would most probably be this one.
On one website it was described as being, oh the dude’s phrasing is so perfect I think I’m gonna have to quote him:
Don’t get me wrong, the pyjamas are incredible. But why exactly did Chuck, and the two girls he ‘Chuck Bassed’ feel the need to put their clothing on after the night before? Out of politeness to Nate? And what exactly was Nate doing on Chuck’s couch whilst Chuck was enjoying some of the hotel’s ‘room service’? I think we all know the answer to that question.
Here Chuck’s outfit looks like it belongs on a 45-50 year old man, and please may I remind any readers that Chuck is supposed to be 16. Nevertheless, it’s completely delicious. I am especially fond of the yellow roll neck – I go to a pretty posh Uni and can safely say I’ve never seen any guy wear a roll neck to lectures and if I did I’d probably jump his bones all the while screaming “Chuck, I entitle you to tap my ass…eff me you Effer.”
The colour palette for this outfit appears to have come straight from the Teletubbies. I love it. Chuck looks like he's off to the PGA tour; the homosexual edition of course:
If there’s one thing that Chuck knows how to do – aside from rape – it’s how to wear a tux. It’s understated, yet classy, perfectly fitting and clearly very well tailored. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but I think I’m in love with Chuck Bass.
