ONE MINUTE WITH ED WESTWICK

On Halloween Night I was standing near the exit of a high-end restaurant in Manhattan when I spotted Gossip Girl’s Ed Westwick who plays villan Chuck Bass. He was wearing black leather pants with a matching sleeveless leather vest showing off his arms. As he was leaving, Westwick stopped right beside me and unexpectedly asked me if I would do him the favor of holding his orange silk scarf as he adjusted his halloween wig. A little star-struck I replied “Sure,” and watched him put on his waist-length black wig. I was a little confused as to what his costume was so I asked him without realizing how fun the next 30 seconds were going to be.

With his English accent the British stallion said, “I am me.”

- “You’re you?”

– “Fuck yes. I am me.”

- “Nice. Do you need help putting that on?”

And that’s when he just gave me a drunken smile and stuck out his tongue. The gesture was a little much for me, though the impromptu flirting with Gossip Girl’s bad boy was lots of fun. With the wig (and the exploiting of his tongue) he looked more like a member of Kiss but without all the make-up.
