What's one man's trash is another man's treasure. Or so the metaphor goes, according to one actress/singer Leighton Meester who plays the character role og Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl and co-stars in the soon to be released Adam Sandler comedy That’s My Boy in theaters June 15th.Leighton looks soft and breezy as she struts a Dolce&Gabbana number as the latest cover girl of Lucky magazine's July issue. Dig out what Blair Waldorf, ahem, I mean Leighton has to say on all topics regarding style, makeup, and love.
On knowing she’d be successful... “I don’t know. Yes? But you can’t count on success in this business. And anyway, being famous or rich or making a certain kind of movie – none of that means ‘success’ to me. Success to me is being happy and fulfilled, truly fulfilled, and being proud of myself and doing different things all the time. So thus far, yes, I’ve been successful.”
On how Gossip Girl has changed her personal style... “My friend says that before the show I dressed like a homeless person. I used to buy everything at garage sales. It was hard to give up! I’d be like, ‘But this crazy sweater is amazing, and it only cost 25 cents!’ I’ve learned from Blair, though. Now I like to pepper in something designer with my usual stuff.” On her makeup routine... “I’ve stopped wearing makeup when I’m not working. For a while I thought I had dark circles and bad skin, and then I realized I was seeing myself that way because I didn’t recognize myself anymore without makeup. Now when I wear it, I think I look really weird!”
On Love and Marriage...“I love love. It’s the most intriguing universally understood emotion, and it comes in so many forms: family love, love of friends. I fall in love with everybody all the time. When I was a kid I thought marriage was sex. But if I ever am in a situation where I want to be married, I don’t think I’ll have a big wedding. Hopefully it would be about something way more secure than that.”
