CHACE CRAWFORD & PENN BADGLEY BRAVING A SNOW STORM IN NYC

The good thing about Gossip Girl is that just like Ugly Betty, they do not pretend to be in New York. Even if the backlot at Universal Studio and Warner is pretty nice, it does not get as good as the real thing.

The bad thing about the real thing is they have to brave the chilly snow storm while filming on location in New York City [Splash]

I felt so bad looking at those photos of Chace Crawford and Penn Badgley braving the cold while I was seating by the pool (in the shade) because it was too hot! It's ok to hate me at that point ... but I am just enjoying the good weather as much as I can because I will be flying to Paris and then Toulouse for the weekend and it is cold there!
