Leighton Meester admits she’s been in ‘toxic’ work environments
Leighton Meester has opened up about how her experiences shaped her latest screen role.
Speaking with People Magazine, the Gossip Girl alum talked about her latest role in new HBO comedy, I Love LA.
Meester admitted, “I’ve been in toxic work environment.”
Adding, “I think that a lot of people have experienced that, being around people who sort of… I don’t know, just, like, you have a boss that maybe doesn’t uplift you, or whatever.”
The actress revealed that she found the show’s “chaotic” energy both relatable and fun to explore.
Notably, her costar Josh Hutcherson, who also joined in the interview, expressed his shock at her confession, saying, “In this industry, that’s happened to you?”
“I know. It’s shocking,” Meester noted.
It is pertinent to mention the new episodes of I Love LA, starring Leighton Meester and Josh Hutcherson air Sundays on HBO.
Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper are sticking together while the actor faces backlash on social media, following scandalous allegations about him.
The supermodel, 30, and the American Hustle star, 51, stepped out in coordinating fall-themed outfits on Wednesday, February 25, in New York City.
Hadid sported a pair of grey trousers and a chocolate-brown coat, with her hair in a messy bun, and Cooper paired black trousers with a beige shacket and black puffer jacket.
The couple were seen leaving the screening of Frankenstein, with a Q&A Event featuring Jacob Elordi at the DGA Theater.
Hadid and Cooper have been together since 2023, and have already hard-launched their relationship on Instagram.
Last December, they attended a Broadway performance of Samuel Becket’s Waiting for Godot, and posed for a picture together behind-the-scenes.
While the duo has kept their relationship lowkey, it has been in the spotlight in recent times as fans were speculating about the next step for the couple.
Social media sleuths also called out Cooper for his name being in the Epstein files. Neither Hadid or Cooper have addressed the allegation.

“Heated Rivalry” Season 2 is coming “as soon as humanly possible,” says creator Jacob Tierney
A second season of “Heated Rivalry” is in the works, with shooting expected to begin in August.
“We are writing it now,” show creator and director Jacob Tierney said on “CBS Mornings” Thursday. “We’re getting ready to start shooting this summer. And there will be more ‘Heated Rivalry’ on your TVs as — like, truly — as soon as humanly possible.”
The next season is expected in 2027, but a release date has not been announced yet.
“Like the best parts of this show, just enjoy the yearn,” executive producer Brendan Brady said about the wait for the second season.
The romance on HBO Max about hockey players Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov begins with a secret fling between two rivals and eventually turns into a yearslong journey of love, denial and self-discovery. It is based on the “Game Changers” book series by Rachel Reid and has been so popular it has averaged more than 10.5 million viewers per episode in the U.S. alone, according to Warner Bros. Discovery.
Tierney believes it resonates because it is “very romantic.”
“It has the hallmarks and trappings of a real classic romance, years of longing and yearning and trying to get together and do the right thing for each other and not being able to, and then eventually a happy ending,” he said.
“It is laser-focused on that love story. There’s not a lot of diversion from it. And I think that’s what the audience responds to, is kind of the intensity and the focus of the storytelling,” he said.
Editor’s note: “Heated Rivalry” Season 2 will begin shooting in August, but no official release date has been announced.
