The Twisted World of Leighton Meester | Deep Dive 

Agreed lmao Serena was so selfish and unlikable!

@@shizzlemywizzle1she was giving that college student who actually thinks they’re broke cause they live with a flat mate or something.

Watchers didn’t like her but she was definitely liked by the characters so…

@@natedang8880 blind obedience lol

people are too hard on her. she was really troubled and went through a lot more than blair.

Blair was thee highlight of Gossip girl

I’m rewatching GG now, she’s so good as Blair. She’s funny.

@@YourGrace_06 Spoiled, catty, and calculating may have been inspired by her mother.

Very well said 👏

She was the only reason why millions watched the show to begin with.

Thank you for clarifying!😮‍💨 I was looking for some info on their relationship-her mother is a mess…

Her mom is a terrible person and a bad liar, I could tell instantly she was lying

@@MiniWeeMoose oh it is horrible, idk how a mother can treat her own child like that

Thank you for this! I was hoping she was still on good terms with her brother as he seemed to be a victim or pawn by his mother specifically against Leighton. I hope her and her brother are still close and that his health got better. I didn’t know about him at all so I was so heartbroken seeing and hearing about him- especially how HIS MOM USED HIM TO GUILTY TRIP HIS SISTER FOR A SALARY TO SPOIL HERSELF. IM FLABBERGASTED

@@AdamIshak01 her brother has spoken up against their mother, I'm not sure if Leighton ever received custody but I feel so awful for her

Yes what constance did is truly despicable

gio forever. - gio

You got a problem with me nigga?

Yeah I'm proud of what Leighton did

Truly a trailblazer on setting healthy boundaries with family

Saaame. This was my driving down the freeway next to ocean beach album in college. Great album

Omg yes heartstrings! I love her voice❤

@@conspicuous1010 omg that is LITERALLY the athmosphere that album creates, it’s the perfect album for driving down the coast

I listen to that album all the time still!❤

I still bop to Somebody to Love

She is actually acting till this day..

@@anonymous-ll4qm Yeah, I meant a bigger acting career, in terms of being in more movies, being more recognized etc

Yep you are right

Well she was a horrible person a Blair Waldorf . She took it out in acting

@@Missmagazinebura I’d say that’s a pretty healthy way to do it since she’s not hurting real people 😊

That is such a privileged ableist a-hole thing to say, wtf.

Keeping a pure heart and intentions through Karmic Tests (like a terrible childhood) is the Only way to break that family karma 🙏❤️

Literally what

It’s not exactly karma

Her and Chuck Bass

​@@wendykutwana7850 ew you liked that predator? I can't believe they gave him a redemption arc when literally his introduction was assaulting a young girl.

Compered to teenage girls idk if that was so mutch worse in any way.. I has a girl in my class obsessed with status/to be popular.. she spent her whole time in junior high truing to climb & ahe didn't care what harm she did to others. Really narcissistic. She catfish a guy as a 13y old before it was a thing. She just came up with the idea of faking her identity on MSN. So that a guy she had a crush on would notice her..

TIL she’s with Adam Brody 😅

She's such a good actress. I was completely shocked when I read what her childhood was like before. It was like the total opposite of Blair's life, but she was still able to portray her so well, and I looove Blair's complex character. As for her relationship with Blake, I heard that they just have a professional relationship. They didn't fight, but they just had really different personalities that they really didn't hang out together.

Yes she is 💯

When she said that bullshit about not being able to make someone want to be active in your life. What a greedy garbage human. I do wonder if she really left her brother for dead with that monster. Surely not right? If I was her I'd probably still send him money for care but put it in a trust or something mom couldn't get to and it would be dispersed through a lawyer.

​@@Ali_D_Kattagreed kinda made me sad and surprised that at that point 5 yrs and she never talked or visited her sick brother. Sad very sad

@@LaLa-nw2rn well I'm skeptical, Mom is not probably the most reliable source for information. She did try to extort $10,000+ dollars from her daughter unsuccessfully and got her ass handed to her in court, and was admonished in front of the courtroom that I'm sure was not empty by the judge. She does not strike me as a cool headed, let bygones be bygones, gracious loser. I wouldn't put it past her to lie to someone from the media to try and hurt leighton, her reputation, or attempt to make people think less of her. I think mom's ideal outcome is probably to see her own daughter washed up and penniless because how dare she. Mother comes off very if I can't have it; no one can/if I'm not happy; no one can be happy. I'm also pretty confused as to what Leighton's mother thinks she is owed and why.

​@@Ali_D_Kattexactly, I am also pretty sure that she is supporting her brother despite what her mother says.

weird to make it a gender thing.

Yep she's such a role model

ew

Drugs are a coping mechanism for people with a hard upbringing, these things aren’t used as an excuse, these things can be the cause. It’s basic psychology of addiction sadly. I love her and glad she’s done so well, however don’t bring down others for their reality! Edit : just cause you do drugs, it doesn’t make you an evil criminal

I totally respect Leighton she's truly a brave woman

Some parents are leeches and will financially abuse their children!! I should know coz this happened to me.

A lot of child stars, unfortunately, have parents that don’t work and rely on their kids. The Sprouse Twins, Bella Thorne, The Olsen Twins, Janette McCurdy, and so many others worked cause their parents weren’t financially dependable.

Same with Jeanette McCurdy's family

we never know cuz of the countless plastic surgery she underwent with the money of her daughter. what a horrible person

I binge watched it all during the 1st lockdown, it’s sooo good! Wasn’t really keen on the newer never version tho.

Let me tell you, that series showed her range and she played that character was so much color. She made audiences care about a mean rich girl.

@@MADEbySOUL Oi fr! Like sometimes I hated her & then I loved her! 😂

@@MADEbySOUL I'm currently watching it and wow, just the story and twists are amazing..she's good, like really good 👌😍

Oh you going to LOVE IT. Xoxo, GG.

Ahhh i love single parents sm, still miss that show😭

I agree! 10/10

Right, I was like what, lol.

And Amanda Sigh-fried

My core shook 😂

I read this comment before he said it thinking “it can’t be that bad” lol I wouldn’t have known what he said it the logo wasn’t in the screen 😂

I only know how to pronounce the name because of Ugly Betty 😂

I come back and watch this video constantly. Leighton Meester will never fall off in my book! What a legend

I could literally talk to a wall about how much I look up to this woman

Just why 😂😂😂

Yeessss!! I would love to see what they find and make a video on her about!!

😭😭😭

It killed me to hear Jake pronounce it like that 😭 Like GIRLY we need some fashion/ modeling deep dives because that name is ✨iconic✨ (albeit problematic af upon further digging I’m sure🤦🏻‍♀️)

I could never figure out why I was always so depressed after watching them both... then I figured it out.. they're super toxic. And don't know why anyone would want to be treated like that

@@Chloe299XxX Ikr. The way they're giving excuses as to why they can't be with each other with the most random takes ever lol

@someonesaccount4875 ugh I know. I had to stop watching at beginning of Season 4. I kept feeling like crap every ep. I watched.. figured out the whole show is just toxic and unrealistic. I mean Dan destroyed lives. But that's ok. Serena practically slept with her teachers. And Chuck sold Blair for a hotel. But somehow that's all ok.. because love!! If my relationship was like that I'd run.
