Leighton Stretches Herself Thin & Books A Movie!

leightonwenn2577847.jpg

So, where is Leighton Meester going to find the time to film Gossip Girl, promote her upcoming album, and now, shoot a movie?! Something is going to have to give! (And with the way it has been performing in the ratings, perhaps it will be GG. We hope not though.)

It was announced this morning that Leighton will be starring in a younger version of Thelma and Lousie. The flick is called Cowgirl Bandits and she will starring alongside Pineapple Express actress, Amber Heard.

Anyone else thinking this movie is going to go the way of Britney Spears' flick Crossroads?

      I like her. Hopefully the movie is well written and well acted!!

      Honestly Crossroads wasn't THAT terrible. It was just a dumb movie. Brit's acting wasn't bad, just the story itself was kinda blah.

      to be a thriple threat you actually have to succed at three things.
      Try starting with one.
      GG is an overhyped show with very few actual viewers. She will be hanging out with Misha Barton soon in the unemployment line.

      That sounds AFWUL. it can't be true. just can't. Johny Depp you talk Amber out of it!!

      Uh, Crossroads, HELL NO. Have you even seen a Amber Heard Movie?!??! Crossroads my ass. This will most likely be really good.

      LOL. "i couldn't find any pants today (even though I'm extremely overpaid for working on a completely pretentious and pointless show) so i just wore my pajamas out of the house." yeah i don't get this look.

      1. Cowgirl Bandits? - shitty title 2. Crossroads wasn't that bad. and 3. Good for her, she's a good actress.

      Sounds low budget so it will not take much to make a profit. You need names to really fill the seats.

    15. 15

      Why does EVERY girl on this show insist on wearing the bright red hooker lipstick? It makes them all look too old and like they're trying too hard!



    16. 16

    17. 17

    22. 22

      she is so cute, I heard her first song and its pretty good, not Brittany spears good.



    23. 23

      Anyone else thinking this movie is going to go the way of Britney Spears' flick Crossroads? LOL I think she plays blair really well but I don't see her career going any further than that thats the same for the rest of the cast too though might as well start of strong and fade with dignity rather than burn out with a bad album etc



    24. 24

      Crossroads was the shit. Britney was so cute in it.



    25. 25

      She is just not cute to me. Her make up always looks off like white trash and her hair is never flattering either.
