Leighton on eTalk

So normally I avoid eTalk like its gonna kick me in the groin, because honestly that's what watching it feels like most of the time, but when I saw that Leighton was on it, and I couldn't resist and I'm so glad I didn't.

It was !

Tanya Kim got a little (oh, who am I kidding A LOT) annoying with her constant comparisons of the show to The O.C., but Leighton was so delightful that her pose and grace out shone all of Tanya's idiocy.

Seriously, I want to hang out with Leighton and take her around behind the middle school and get her pregnant!

What I liked about this interview was that because it was long you really got to hear a lot of what she had to say, and I totally loved her thoughts on Blair (and that she has thought a lot about Blair). The humanness she brings to Blair is not an accident. Her thoughts on Eleanor being the root of most of Blair's problems, and her dissection of how Blair looks to herself in comparison to Serena is totally how I've interpreted the character. And I'm totally going to use her insight into Blair wanting her life to be an Audrey Hepburn movie in fic!

Tanya: So what are you going to do to keep your private life private?
Leighton: Um, I think I'm just going to live a really boring life.

Oh, Leighton! XOXO Janine

I also had to laugh when she talked about 24 and how her character died. I'll admit that back then I hadn't seen the light and I was literally clapping and laughing my ass off when her character died. She's right it was a very memorable death. I'm sorry though bb, I love you! Also, the concentration she put into saying Shohreh Aghdashloo's name was SO cute (and I love her for saying it so that I could confirm that I have been saying it right!) Not to mention it was so funny when she ran out of famous Canadians she knew of to list, and got flustered and was all like "I love your cars", lol. So sweet to give us the benefit of the doubt bb, but we don't make cars. We drive them and pay other countries money for them, but that's about it.

Listen, it's ten minutes of Leighton looking good, and being funny and well-spoken (she would pause and THINK before she speaks, people! Think! How rare and beautiful), you totally need to just watch it and fall in love all over again

Oh Leighton! You are just too, too much love. (*fights the urge to sing "Hey Mickey" with Leighton's name*)

I love when they ask where she was when she got the call that she got the part and she goes "Um...I was at a friend's house." You know she was with Blake!

And the whole Blair wants to be Audrey Hepburn...I love that she's bringing that into the TV character because it was in the books a lot.

On Serena: "She's so perfect. She's everything I'm not." Oh Blair, you seriously need to have Serena help you get over your complex. She can bring her perfect into your life and then you can realize how perfect you are, too.

LEIGHTON FTW!

Dear Leighton,

Do you think you could possibly stop being so adorable? I fall a little harder every time I see you...no? *sigh* I just thought I'd ask.

Dear Tanya,

If you love the O.C. so much, why don't you move there and marry it? But please shut up about it. That is all.

oh, how cute.

okay, she looks great, but I think I like her even more because she does not seem to be the typical dumb Hollywood starlet. I would have been really disappointed otherwise.

eTalk actually had something GOOD to talk about for once? That's amazing! I'm speechless!



......



That is a sign of the apocalypse though, right?

Oh Leighton. I thought we agreed that you would stop being so wonderful and let me go back to a life where I wasn't in love with you!

Well that's just not going to happen.

Okay this is me being amused by the Bleighton dynamic again because in that youtube video of the ET interview, with Blake on oneside of TMomsen and Leighton on the other and they both have their arms kind of around her and the expressions on their face it reminds me of some crazy family.

Oh yeah...I remember that interview. In fact I think it was one the first I saw Leighton on it and I remember thinking "she's kind of cool. I like her!" Because on the first photoshots she was very serious and looking kind of bitchy. But what a pleasant surprise she was,she is so cute and lovely, love her joking with that chick Tanya. Also I have notice that when she makes jokes she gets all shy and kind of flustered at the same *dreamy eyes* cute!

Tanya: So what are you going to do to keep your private life private?
Leighton: Um, I think I'm just going to live a really boring life.


LoL so funny. Like when she said at the TRL interview that nobody cares about her life. Oh Leighton, if you knew how much I care, you probably might be putting a restrain order against me. Well, not really but yeah, I do care LoL Especially when there is certain blonde and tall on there with you.

Seriously, she looks so sweet and lovable person that I'm not surprise that Blake seems to can't help herself when she's around her. I know I couldn't.
