The New Gossip Girl Cast Photos Are Flooding Me With Serotonin

When I saw that brand-new photos had surfaced of cast members from the “Gossip Girl” reboot lounging insouciantly on the Metropolitan Museum of Art steps, I felt like Christmas had come early….

Between the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the, uh, attempted coup being perpetrated by ranking Republicans in the U.S., it is—to put it mildly—not the most chill time to be a sentient human being. When I’m not doomscrolling for the latest-breaking political news, I’m frantically Googling “COVID vs. cold symptoms,” and it’s all weighing a bit more heavily as the days get shorter and the temperature drops.

All of that might help explain why, when I saw that brand-new photos had surfaced of cast members from the Gossip Girl reboot lounging insouciantly on the Metropolitan Museum of Art steps, I felt like Christmas had come early.

The long-awaited reboot, which stars Emily Alyn Lind, Tavi Gevinson, Thomas Doherty, Adam Chanler-Berat, and Zión Moreno, is certainly shaping up to be more racially and ethnically diverse than its predecessor—although, to be fair, that wouldn’t be a particularly difficult goal to accomplish.

The essential je ne sais quoi of the show, though, appears to remain intact; as I analyze the recently surfaced cast photos, I can only imagine this group of attractive young people being extremely mean to me if I happened to be on the C train with them (not, of course, that any of the OG Gossip Girl crew would have done something as grossly quotidian as riding the subway).

Is a brand-new season of a rebooted CW show going to fix any of the problems going on in the world? Absolutely not, but it might provide many of us with a brief return to a time when the only thing we had to worry about was whether Serena actually killed that guy.

Adin Ross Blindsided by Kanye West’s Controversial Gift, A Swastika Shirt With His Name

HonkMagazine

Adin Ross is a well known streamer in the hip-hop community, famous for showcasing some of the biggest artists in the genre. He has hosted viral interviews and has helped amplify the work of music giants like Drake, earning a reputation as a connector between artists and their fans. However, things took a shocking turn with Kanye West, and the relationship may be irreparable. In the past, Ross has expressed his admiration for West and even tried to collaborate with him on his stream. Recently, West made a bizarre attempt to reach out to Ross by gifting him a custom t-shirt with a Swastika and Ross’s name. This left Ross, who is Jewish, feeling horrified and betrayed.

The awkward moment unfolded during a FaceTime call that Ross recorded and shared with his followers. What started as a friendly chat quickly turned shocking when West unveiled the offensive t-shirt. Ross was visibly stunned, exclaiming, “What the f*ck?!” as he processed what he had just seen. He paused the video and turned to his audience to express his disbelief. “He has a shirt with a Swastika with my name on it,” he said, clearly disappointed and in shock. His viewers reacted with outrage and support for Ross, flooding the chat with their messages.

Throughout the call, Ross tried to keep his cool and handled the situation carefully. He later explained that some fans might have expected him to confront West more aggressively, but he felt the entire situation was just too absurd. “I know y’all are gonna say I didn’t stand up to him,” he noted, emphasizing that his calm reaction didn’t mean he supported West’s actions. This incident is just another episode in Kanye West’s ongoing controversies, but for Adin Ross, it feels like a personal betrayal.
