I'm happy to present our February FOTM with the amazing Julia, very loyal CB peminat since the very beginning spreading the Cinta for them everywhere she gets and greatly contributing to this spot. So well deserved! Without further ado, here's her interview. :)

1. Congrats on winning Julia! How does it feel to be a Chair FOTM?
It feels amazing! I've been a huge Chair peminat for years, but it's only recently that I started getting involved in the spot, and it's awesome to be recognized for it! I'm so happy that a bunch of us contributed to making the CB spot active again!

2. Standard question: Tell us something about yourself that we don't know yet.
Well, I live in New Jersey in the United States and I was born on May 21, 1995, making me a sophomore in high school and probably one of the youngest people here on the CB spot! Haha. That's pretty much it, lol.

3. What got anda hooked on Gossip Girl?
In December 2007, my sister told me about this amazing new tunjuk that I had to start watching, Gossip Girl. I watched the pilot and I was hooked. It was winter break, so I was able to stay up late and watch all the episodes. I was completely hooked. Then I was able to watch live when School Lies aired!

4. How did anda become a Chair fan? Which scene made anda a hardcore shipper?
I remember watching 1x03 and thinking that CB could be a really good couple when they were scheming together in Blair's bedroom. I think I became a shipper during 1x08, but I know I was a hardcore peminat sejak the time 1x18 came around. I know I was rooting for CB during that episode.

5. Where do CB rank at on your senarai of kegemaran TV couples?
#1. They are my OTP, and no other couple comes close.

6. What's your kegemaran thing about them as individual characters?
For Chuck, I think that he has a really big hati, tengah-tengah once anda peel away all his layers. I also Cinta that he does not judge the people he cares about at all- for example, he was the person Eric first felt able to come out to. And he'll never judge Blair for her scheming nature, because he's the same way! As for Blair, her loyalty is her best trait sejak far. No matter what's going on, she will always be there for those she cares about. I Cinta that about her.

7. What's the thing that makes Chair different from other couples?
They are totally different from a typical teen couple. Usually anda have the bad guy and the good girl, atau the good guy and the bad girl. Chuck and Blair are the bad boy and the bad girl. Yet as the tunjuk progresses and their relationship progresses, anda see that these labels are just labels and there is lebih to their characters. Also, the chemistry between Ed and Leighton makes them totally different (and better!) from other couples.

8. Would anda rather have different actors playing Chuck and Blair atau Ed and Leighton being a part of a different tunjuk not written sejak JS&SS?
Ed and Leighton being a part of a different tunjuk not written sejak JS&SS. First of all, JS/SS have basically destroyed everything I loved about this show, so I would be happy to watch a tunjuk not written sejak them. Also, I think CB would be a shell of itself if different, lesser actors played Chuck and Blair. EL have to pull off the most ridiculous lines sometimes, and I don't think other actors could do it. And their chemistry is unbeatable.

9. Which is your kegemaran quote berkata sejak Ed atau Leighton about CB?
Leighton: "I can really relate to it- not necessarily because it's this dramatic, tumultuous relationship, but because the way they Cinta each other is very real, and not for the sake of being dramatic. It's actual love. There's nobody for each other but them "
Enough said.

10. The most...

Best angst: 3x17 breakup… it was so awful and depressing, but man, Ed and Leighton are so good at angst!
Best episode: 3x12
Scene/moment/anything that pissed anda off: 3x18 scenes. All of them. anda don’t even want to get me started on that episode. God it pissed me off so much.

Season 4 (so far);

Best hot scene: Piano sex, 4x07
Best quote: “It wouldn’t be my world without anda in it.” 4x02
Best angst: Train station scene!
Best episode: 4x09
Scene/moment/anything that pissed anda off: Do I even have to say it? EVERY SINGLE MOMENT IN THE saat HALF OF THIS SEASON. (not that I actually watched any of it… but I’ve read enough recaps).

15. Would anda still be watching Gossip Girl if they never happened?
Probably not. Honestly, sometime during the saat half of season 2 I realized that I was only watching for Chair. I really couldn’t care less about what happened to the other characters. So if Chair hadn’t happened, the tunjuk would not have held my interest for very long.


16. How do anda feel about Chair/Chuck haters? What do anda have to say to them?
I’m going to have to quote Mean Girls here. “I’m sorry that people are so jealous of me, but I can’t help it that I’m popular!” Face it, DBers/CB haters/Chuck haters. OUR COUPLE IS BETTER THAN YOURS. WE ARE lebih POPULAR, NO MATTER HOW MANY FAKE ACCOUNTS anda MAKE.WE ARE GETTING ENDGAME, NOT YOU.
Deal with it. And stop trolling our spot.

17. anda can "borrow" one scene from each one of the Gossip Girl couples. Which one do anda choose?
Serena and Nate: sofa, kerusi panjang sex/assgrab (from 3x13)
Dan and Serena: The “I Cinta anda because” scene. Just change it around to make it fit CB.
Nate and Jenny: Fashion tunjuk Ciuman (2x09)
Blair and Nate: Wow, they really have nothing worth stealing… I’ll go with the 2x19 talk (“I don’t know who I am anymore”)
Nate and Vanessa: 2x12 kiss
Carter and Serena: The forest scene in 3x01

18. BlanD endgame atau Chuck bass dying a painful death? anda must choose atau you'll be obliged to watch the Ban Ciuman scene EXTENDED VERSION (which includes DB raunchy sex at the end) for a week 24/7. MWAHAHAHAHAH.
NAT!!! How can anda make me choose?!?!?!?!?!? Okay, I’m so sorry Chuck… but you’re going to have to die a painful death. Here’s my logic: if BlanD get endgame, Chuck would kill himself because he’d be so distraught. So I’ll just choose Chuck dying a painful death because that would also happen with the DB option. Might as well spare myself the pain of knowing BlanD are endgame.

19. anda have a chance to talk JS&SS into changing something in CB's story, would you; and what would anda change?
I think everyone knows what I’m going to say- GET RID OF BAN!!!! This storyline killed any enthusiasm I had for the show. I’m contemplating not watching live ever again because Dan and Blair, while they won’t turn romantic, will continue to be “best friends” for the rest of the show. I have no interest in watching those scenes. Also, I would probably get rid of the IP, just so people wouldn’t be able to say CB are emotionally abusive.

20. What's the most laughable thing haters have said?
The Piano sex was rape. LOLOLOLOL. I mean… what? I think they might want to watch that scene again. Blair’s face was not the face of a woman getting raped.

21. Have anda ever cried on a Chair scene, if so on which one?
Yes, many times. I was basically crying during every CB scene during 2x13, lol. I cried during the rooftop scene in 2x14. The “It’s just a game” scene in 2x23. And then I was crying happy tears during the ILY scene. No joke. I teared up during the hospital scene and during the train station scene.

22. What's your kegemaran thing about this spot?
I Cinta that we try to keep this spot alive sejak making fun and interesting picks and through things like the ICAW club. I also Cinta our loyalty- we’ll stand sejak our ship to the end!
23. What would be the perfect ending for them?
I want a CB wedding in the series finale. The foreshadowing has been insane.

24. We're close to GG being back from hiatus; how would anda bungkus, balut up season 4?
End DB, and make CB Friends again. Then they could slowly build up to a relationship.

25. Biggest slap in the face to any CB hater (as in some cast/crew quote saying how much CB pwn; biggest endgame hint; etc)?
Leighton Meester: "I can really relate to it- not necessarily because it's this dramatic, tumultuous relationship, but because the way they Cinta each other is very real, and not for the sake of being dramatic. It's actual love. There's nobody for each other but them "
THERE’S NOBODY FOR EACH OTHER BUT THEM.

Suck it.

26. To finish this off, any last words?
Thank anda so much for voting for me! I really appreciate it! I Cinta this spot so much and I hope we’re able to keep it active during the dark days that lie ahead! CB FTW!

Congrats again, Julia! I'm so glad I got to interview you. Disclaimer: I take no credit for any of the arts.
