– Vanity Fair spoke
with Rider Strong and asked if Corey
and Topanga would be divorced today since divorce rates are very high for those
who get married before the age of 20. Rider answered with “Probably,” but quickly
changed his answer to “No, no, no…” since the show proved time and time again
that those two were meant for each other and would probably still be together
in “magical happy land.” To check out the full interview, click here…Rider
also touches on how Mr. Turner quickly disappeared.

– I didn’t get a chance to delve into the whole Chuck and Blair “domestic disturbia”
yesterday, but E! spoke to Gossip Girl executive producer Josh Safran and here’s an excerpt (go here
for the full interview):
I thought it was interesting that Chuck actually grabbed her and that the consequence of that
fight was Blair had the most perfect, beautiful, dainty injury, which are two
symbolically significant things. Did this moment verge on abuse? What was going
on in this scene?
The way we
viewed it, I think it's very clear that Blair is not afraid in those moments, for herself. They have a volatile relationship,
they always have, but I do not believe—or I should say we do not believe—that it is abuse when it's the two of them. Chuck
does not try to hurt Blair. He punches the glass because he has rage, but
he has never, and will never, hurt Blair. He knows it and she knows it, and I
feel it's very important to know that she is not scared—if anything, she is scared for Chuck—and what he might do
to himself, but she is never afraid of what he might do to her. Leighton and I
were very clear about that.
My thoughts: Chuck may not have full-on attacked Blair physically, but the
emotional baggage these two have given each other should be considered a form
of abuse.
