i was just wondering if what happens in gossip girl. actually happens in the upper east side.
Answer
Wow, stupid shows like Gossip Girl really get to me, especially when they give non-New Yorkers crazy perceptions about the city.
NO, despite what the CW propaganda's you into believing, the Upper East Side is NOTHING like Gossip Girl.
Though many Upper East-side teens do attend private schools, many of them are not even in NY! If you have any knowledge about the fancy prep schools scattered through-out New England (ie. Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts) , you'd realize that a majority of the students are from NYC. On the weekends, they can take a 2-4 hour train ride to NY. Their parents usually own a house in Connecticut or Rhode Island as well.
BTW, with the rampant gentrification of NYC, if you live on the Lower-West Side (assuming you own the apartment), you're automatically a millionaire.
So when you're on a trip from 'Anywhere USA' to NYC, please don't take the bus up to 5th ave. and 69th st. and assume every teen standing on the sidewalk parties on rooftops with celebrities and cheats on their boyfriend with their parent's hot spanish chauffeur. (But wouldn't that be something? Oh, wait, that's why it's a show)

Hi, I am going to New York next saturday (14th) till the wednesday (18th) and I was wondering if anybody knows if any celebrities are going to be there during that time, like at events or something, or filming on a news show in the morning? If so, where? I also LOVE gossip girl so I was just wondering if anybody knows any set locations or something? I am from England and would love to make the most of my trip :) thanks
Answer
Sure, tons on Broadway.
Will Ferrell, Daniel Radcliffe, Jane Fonda, and more.
You may catch somebody on the street (but don't count on it), but if you do, be a NYer and leave them alone.
