National broadsheet \u003ca href\u003d\"http://www.philstar.com/\"\u003ePhilippine Star\u003c/a\u003e is already involved. Brian's latest article called for a boycott on the paper since it employs Celine, DJ and Tim as Lifestyle writers. \u003ca href\u003d\"http://www.inquirer.net/\"\u003ePhilippine Daily Inquirer\u003c/a\u003e is capitalizing on this angle and it kept on writing about the blog day after day. They even featured an exclusive interview on Brian to \"justify\" his existence.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n5. Brian wrote on one of his posts the way DJ and his friends had him arrested because of a physical fight that they had at The Peninsula as a result of their break-up. I think that this was also the incident that triggered Brian to start the blog. Talk about \"crime of passion\".\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n6. The comments section was re-opened several days ago. It was at times juicier than the actual posts. Some popular names and who's who are posting there! This is war!\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nI don't know when and how will this end. There are rumors that the Gucci Gang are now in hiding because of shame and fear of public ridicule. Tim Yap already had his say on the issue and wrote something on his weekly column about it. DJ's lawyers already got in touch with Brian but he refused to cooperate (it was actually a poorly written demand letter if I may say). \u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nGoodluck to all of them!

Here's a spoiler straight from \u003ca href\u003d\"http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20185232_6,00.html\"\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c/a\u003e.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cspan style\u003d\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eWhere We Left Off:\u003c/span\u003e The Upper East Side's social hierarchy was thrown for a loop after ambitious Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) usurped Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) as queen bee. Dethroned and depressed, Blair attempted to skip town, but BFF Serena (Blake Lively) managed to stop her at the helipad. \u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cspan style\u003d\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eUp Next:\u003c/span\u003e \"I would say one of the big headlines on the next five episodes is definitely the Blair-and-Jenny power struggle,\" says creator Josh Schwartz. Look for the newly manipulative Jenny to even attempt to seduce Nate (Chace Crawford), although he'll find comfort in GG's resident outcast, Vanessa (Jessica Szohr). It's just the beginning of what Schwartz promises are five \"explosive\" episodes. The fireworks come courtesy of Georgina Sparks, a visitor from Serena's past who reveals the true reason why Serena left town. (Hint: It wasn't because she slept with Blair's ex-boyfriend Nate.) The role, yet to be cast, was originally offered to Schwartz's former O.C. bad girl, Mischa Barton. While Serena once again shows her rebellious side, co-star Penn Badgley wants his character, Dan Humphrey, also to take a turn straddling good and evil. \"I wish he would let things go a little bit more,\" says Badgley. \"Dan holds people to such high standards and it makes him very flawed, which is necessary. I'd just like to dirty him up a bit.\" Don't fret, Penn — there's always season 2.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nCheck also the spoilers of your other favorite returning shows like Grey's Anatomy, Brothers \u0026amp; Sisters and Ugly Betty on the \u003ca href\u003d\"http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20185232,00.html?iid\u003dtop25-20080321-Spring+TV+preview%3A+Inside+26+shows\"\u003eEW site\u003c/a\u003e.
