While The CW’s Gossip Girl held steady in the ratings with 3.4 million viewers, only down 300 thousand from last week’s all time high for the show.

Bilson on the election and young people voting: “Thank God! It’s very exciting. I’m really happy that there’s so much heat around this election, because there needs to be. Right now, we need a change. I campaigned for Kerry four years ago, and I supported Hillary.”
On Hilary Clinton: “Well, I definitely like that idea. I mean, there’s nothing more empowering than to know that I was alive to see the possibility of the first woman president. I think our country needs that femininity, you know? Still, I hope Obama wins.”
On whats next for her: “I’d love to do a musical. I’d love to do comedies…. I know what I want to do, but it’s just not as detailed as I’d probably like it to be.”
