Gossip Girl's Gay Guy

Richard Lawson · 03/25/08 10:34AM

Yesterday we pondered a deep and important question: Which dude on Gossip Girl is the geigh one? We took a poll and a resounding 62% of you believe it to be Eric van der Woodsen, the twinky little brother of sexpot moon goddess Serena. This is very likely. It's already been rumored that Eric is in fact the Gossip Girl, which would make him pretty darn gay (and the possessor of a remarkable Kristen Bell impersonation.) Plus, in the past he had some kind of crazy wrist-cutty freakout and, as we all know, gay people are wild and unstable. Yeah he's had little moments with busty Jenny Humphrey, but the writers are probably just laying the groundwork for a haggish friendship. 20% of you think it's Chuck Bass, the scheming trout-faced rake who was a bit gay in the books. Plus the Daily News posits that Ed Westwick, who plays Chuck might be a homo with fellow actor Chace Crawford. (Nah, they're "just mates" who live together, Westwick says. Heh. Mates.) I'd be satisfied with any outcome, just as long it's not Al Borland (which means I disagree with twenty-nine of you). Definitive proof of Eric van der Woodsen's gayness after the jump. Look closely!
