In my opinion, Gossip Girl is one of the best series out there. I was admittedly late to the party discovering it when I was in college, but boy was I consumed. Blair Waldorf’s wardrobe, the drama and the glitzy lifestyles of the Upper East Siders had me in a chokehold.
These tips have no guaranteed truth to them, and yet we lap them up and begin immediately trying to figure out which A-list couple is headed for a divorce. It’s all a bit of mindless fun, right?

“A lot of times people think that blind items -because you’re not naming names and most blind items never have any reveals – have some kind of ‘shadiness’ to them.

That way when it does happen, it looks even better.
Deuxmoi have a podcast where the presenter uses a voice distorter. Their disclaimer is the same as Enty’s and in one part it reads, “Information on this site may contain errors or inaccuracies: the blog’s proprietor does not make warranty as to the correctness or reliability of the site’s content.” They take no responsibility for what they post, write or even discuss.
