It was a celeb studded red carpet last night as The Dark Knight premiered in New York City.  Christian Bale (Batman) and co-stars, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Gary Oldman were all on hand to promote their new film.  Gossip Girl stars Blake Lively, Penn Badgley and Ed Westwick were all there to catch new the Batman as well as reality star Lauren Conrad who seems to be on a different coast every day.  The Dark Knight opens in theaters on Friday but to check out a trailer click here.

         

Spotted: B and C strolling around a small town.  They were on opposite sides of the street but that doesn't mean they weren't together.
Will Blair and Chuck's romance extend through the summer? Leighton and Ed were filming scenes in New York yesterday, both rocking long shorts and loafers...I'm not sure if I support that look. Leighton also seems to be playing the "no pictures" card; uh oh, looks like Blair is spilling over into real life!

      

Happy Independence Day blog fans!  July 4, is the day we set aside each year to commemorate when we won our independence from England way back in 1776, U-S-A!

But besides celebrating our freedom we can also celebrate the other things that make this country great, like celebrities.  What would our society be today with out Paris, LiLo, Brit Brit, Heidi and all the other reality whores, I mean uber talented stars? Shows like Gossip Girl and songs like Lollipop are woven into the fabric of this great nation. 

So tomorrow afternoon when you're snacking on a hot dog, popping open a PBR or watching the fireworks with a loved one, think about your favorite celeb...sure, "talent" may be a term to use loosely this day in age, but what the hell else would you do all day at work if you didn't have these fools to look at?!

Ed Westwick must be loving his life right now.  We spotted Ed shooting a beach scene with some unidentified topless females for the next season of Gossip Girl.  Today also happens to be Ed's birthday, he's turning 21!  Woo hoo! Legal!  Although something tells me that he's probably had no problem drinking in bars before today.

       

Oh the Gossip kids, always having the best of times on set!  Granted once the cameras are off they are probably throwing tantrums and diva moves left and right, but while they're on they are such smiling, happy people!  We caught up with Leighton, Blake, Chace and Ed on set yesterday in Long Island.  As always, check back with INF Daily for more pics (and possible spoilers) to come!

      

We spotted Ed looking laid back on the set of Gossip Girl which is currently filming in the Hamptons.  Ed's outfit could not have been out of Chuck's wardrobe; it's not nearly tiny or flamboyant enough! 

    

Ed Westwick is a sexy bitch! Do you think he likes his Gossip Girl wardrobe?!  I think they found him the tiniest pair of shorts possible, kinda looks painful.  We spotted Ed and the rest of the cast on set yesterday as they begin their summer filming in the Hamptons.  (Must be nice, when is my job switching locations to the beach?) As promised, we will continue to bring you coverage of the Gossip kids all summer long, both on and off the set!

          

Those Gossip girls and boys really clean up nice!  We caught a glimpse of Chace, Penn, Ed, Blake, Leighton, Taylor Michelle and Jessica at the CW upfront at the Lincoln Center in NYC last night.  I can't believe next week is the season finale of the show, can you last until the fall?!  Well don't you  worry, cuz your pals at INF will be bringing you coverage of the Gossip crew all summer long, both on and off the set!

           

More shots from the Gossip Girl wedding!  It appears that Lily van der Woodsen and Bart Bass are exchanging vows in the park, surrounded by flowers and gorgeous guests! 

             

The 94th annual White House Correspondents Dinner took place over the weekend and everyone from Ashlee Simpson to Pam Anderson were on hand to bring politics and the media together in one, weird mash up.  Presided over by President Bush and hosted by Craig Ferguson, our favorites from The Hills, Heidi, Spencer and Lauren all showed as well as The Jonas Brothers (who were totally the most popular guests) and Gossip boy Ed Westwick and The Soup host, Joel McHale. Dubyah Bush and Spencer Pratt in the same room?  The world may be coming to an end...
