PUBLISHED SEP 22, 2018

It's been six years since CW and Leighton Meester, hit the gold mine with 'Gossip Girl.' The show about the complex life of Manhattan's elite really struck a chord with audiences; as a result - an overnight success. The drama, the brainlessness, the scheming and plotting, and all that money - 'Gossip Girl' was everything that made a really engaging television show. It aired for six seasons before coming to a really strange end in 2012. Leighton Meester's character Blair Waldorf is still very revered by anyone who has seen the inside of Constance, but Leighton clearly has moved on.
