Is Michelle Trachtenberg Taking the Role of "Georgina Sparks" Too Seriously?

We all know that Georgina Sparks, Michelle Trachtenberg’s character on Gossip Girl, loves to party. But is life imitating art? The New York Post is reporting that the Gossip Girl newcomer fainted at a party she was hosting at the new Sunglass Hut store in SoHo in New York City. Reportedly, she passed out at 8pm but continued to party once revived and appeared just fine hours later.

Michelle showed up later at the Vavoom party in this fabulous sequined dress. I’m loving the dress but not the tights and boots – a little too much if you ask me. What would have been better? Bare legs and some cool strappy sandals.

Also at the Vavoom/Entertainment Weekly party?

Gossip Girl co-stars Connor Paolo, Taylor Momsen and Jessica Szohr. Jessica looked great (again, not a fan of the shoes) but I’m not sure what look Taylor Momsen was going for… I know that she embraces fashion in a Sarah Jessica Parker kind of way – sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I’m voting “doesn’t” with this dress. Kudos to her for trying to make it work, most girls could not carry off that shade of yellow. But the lack of structure just bothers me (although her shoes are MUCH better than Jessica’s!).

Gossip Girl star Blake Lively (hmm, apparently arriving alone – I didn’t see any shots of Penn Badgley on the red carpet). This ensemble is the same one as in her Gossip Girl interview with TV Guide and I just love it. She looks beautiful and age appropriate.

And Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester, looking a little bit tan and definitely channeling Audrey Hepburn. The outfit to me is so Roman Holiday/My Fair Lady – could she look any prettier?

I have my favorites… Who looked the best?
