Actress Jessica Szohr  played the love-her-or-hate-her character of Vanessa on iconic TV series Gossip Girl. 

Jessica starred alongside Ed Westwick in the show, and the pair were involved in multiple storylines together. 

Their working relationship flourished into romance, and the pair dated for over a year.

In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, the actress was asked for her thoughts on the rape allegations her former co-star is currently facing. 

'It's a difficult subject right now for anyone that's involved on either side,' the actress told the mag. 

'I don't even really know how to answer it, if I should, because I don't want anything to get twisted, because I have known Ed for years and know how lovely he is, and don't think he would ever put someone in a position like that.'

She told the mag that she struggles with wondering whether the entire truth is being told. 

'It’s difficult, because you don’t want someone you know to go through that or do that to someone, or knowing them well, knowing that you don’t think they would, and you don't want, for the girls that are coming forward, it’s like, are they stretching the truth?'

'I’m really trying to answer this as open and nicely as I can, because it is touchy, and I obviously for any of these situations, wasn’t there, for either side, so I can’t say it did or didn’t happen,' she continued.

'But I know him well and I’ve known him for years, and I found it shocking.'

Ed Westwick has denied the accusations made against him by three separate women. 

The situation is still undergoing investigation.

Jessica Szohr has managed to make some Instagram users very upset with her comments surrounding a much debated topic on social media of late.

Earlier this year, Kylie Jenner got herself into hot water with her selfies in which she drew attention to her braided hair. 

People thought the 18-year was being insensitive towards how people appropriate Black culture. Actress Amandla Stenberg was quick to respond, and provided other social media users with an interesting look as to how people would find Kylie’s actions as inappropriate:

She responded to the photograph by writing a comment which read  ''when u appropriate black features and culture but fail to use ur position of power to help black Americans by directing attention towards ur wigs instead of police brutality or racism #whitegirlsdoitbetter.”

Now, Gossip Girl actress Jessica has shared a selfie on Instagram, posing in front of what appears to be a cardboard sign with a message.

"Black girls free yourselves from the white standard of beauty and stop wearing weaves," it read. Szohr captioned the black-and-white photo with: #weavefree and #exceptwhenimweaving. 

Many of her followers were displeased by what they saw as another person telling them what they can or cannot do with their hair.

"Your mom is white, therefore your hair less coarse than mine/easier to manage. So it's easier for you to dismiss weaves than a black woman with coarser hair would.”

Another wrote: “White people talk about how they don't want black girl's wearing weave yet they can't accept us with our natural hair unless it's flat and silky like theirs. “ 

Jessica has let the comments keep on rolling, and rather than deleting the image or editing the caption, she instead responded to her commenters individually.

“Let’s all relax, I am mixed and use extensions sometimes, she wrote, then added:

“It was a random message I saw on the side of the street. And who ever wrote that is probably happy you are all typing about it.”

Celebrating his birthday in style, former Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford was joined by a very special lady on his big day.

The now 30-year old actor and Blood and Oil co-star Rebecca Rittenhouse,26,  looked very happy to be by each other’s side all through his birthday bash at the London hotel in West Hollywood this weekend.

According to US Weekly a source has said that while they “wouldn’t call them official”, there still seems to be “a romance between them for sure”.

The pair have been spotted out and about together in recent times and the source also added, “he and Rebecca have been hanging out, they had great chemistry on set and he really enjoys hanging out with her.”

Almost 100 of Chace’s closest friends gathered to celebrate his birthday, including none other than Ed Westwick, or Chuck Bass as he will always be known to us.

Ed took his turn roasting Chace on the night, sharing some supposedly hilarious stories from the birthday boy’s past.

Another Gossip Girl alum, Jessica Szohr was on hand to help get the celebrations underway. Despite the fact that she and Ed were previously together, sources have said that “Ed’s totally cool with Jessica.”

While it’s been three years- we can’t believe it either, since Gossip Girl left our screens we couldn’t help but remember the first times we laid eyes on Nate. Chace, sorry, Chace.

Happy birthday indeed Mr Crawford!
