When Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick are confronted with the fact that everyone wants them to be totally gay for each other (or indeed for anyone), they're forced to tap dance along a thin line between enthuasiastically avowing their absolute heterosexuality and not in any way alienating their fanbase. (Says Ed: "It's not true, but hilarious... People project their fantasies...") For women, though, the issue is just not so stressful: Queen B. Leighton Meester, for example, is delighted to be a Sapphic object of desire.

When Salon's Thomas Rogers tells her that his women friends are "obsessed" with Blair, and that one of them wants to go bi for her, Meester responds: "Most people might be weirded out by that, but I find it to be very endearing and flattering."

Yeah, take that Blake Lively: You might have some stupid movie out about magic pants or whatever, but I've got the lesbian vote.
