The guys of Gossip Girl do OUT magazine

Those delightfully horny guys from my current telly show Gossip Girl have been talking to OUT magazine and goofing around for these charming photographs. Bill Keith writes of the show:

The thought of returning to high school is a harrowing one for most gay men, but being able to look at adolescence through a lens that idealizes everyone as insanely wealthy, impossibly gorgeous, and improbably well-spoken is like porn. And don’t worry -- they’re all legal. Barely.

For the uninitiated, Gossip Girl, which is shot entirely on location, follows the exploits of a sophisticated group of high school juniors at a private school on New York’s Upper East Side. These kids eat at the newest restaurants, party at the hottest clubs, and rip the chicest clothes off one another week after week. Writers even name-check all real-life locations and designers for viewers keeping score at home. It’s like Sex and the City without all the hand-wringing over infertility, breast cancer, and other trappings of female aging.

Penn talks about whether or not the producers are going to develop his character and make him gay as he becomes in the Gossip Girl novels: “I don’t think network TV really has the balls to make one of their [teenage] series’ regulars gay. Let’s say the show builds up to become a big hit, then I think they’d maybe explore it in year three or four. It would be an interesting thing to do. It could bring in a whole different demographic.”

Different demographic? I wasn't aware that anyone watched this show apart from gay guys!
