But Alexander, 28, says she’s nothing like the character she plays; in fact, the distance between her character’s reality and her own is part of what drew her to the role.
Gossip Girl was such a huge cultural phenomenon at the time it was on. I feel like my early years were very influenced by the show, whether that’s a good or bad thing. Do you feel any pressure about being a part of the new Gossip Girl? She doesn’t really level out. It’s always this seesaw experience where she’s got the two sides; what she wants for her life and her “goal life,” where she’s powerful and on top and living her “best life,” and then she has personal goals that are a little more nuanced. But at the end of the day, she’s just looking for love and security and connection, like anybody else.
