Chace Crawford Denies Gossip Girl Feuds
Posted by Adam
Chace Crawford has shot down claims the cast of Gossip Girl is at war with each other — insisting they’re all really good pals when the cameras stop rolling.
The hunky actor says feud rumors are created by magazine because the reality of life behind-the-scenes is much more boring.
“It’s funny because everyone wants to know what’s happening on set,” Crawford tells Interview magazine. “There isn’t anything shocking to write about, so magazines want to stir things up, like ‘Blake and Leighton hate each other.’
“But the truth is, when we’re all done with work, it’s like, ‘Hey, what are you doing? Let’s go do karaoke.’ The publicity factor is outrageous. They just want to shoot you down. So that can definitely wear on you a bit.
“A perception of you is created, and you really have no control over it. To some degree, you learn to adapt. But you also think, Eff you, you don’t know me. It’s exactly what you are saying about becoming a fantasy.
“Sometimes you think, I just wanted to express myself and be challenged. I didn’t sign on to be a novelty boy.
“But that’s a double-edged sword and certainly not a constant factor. Even if that feeling ever creeps up a little bit, it’s like, who likes a whiner? I’m not going to sit down and bitch about it, because you can’t.”
