I now know two things about Leighton Meester: She's on the show Gossip Girl and she was born in jail of a mother who had been arrested for running drugs. And after three months her mom had to leave the halfway house and she had to go be raised by relatives. And that she had several other relatives who were also drug runners. But look how far she's come in life in spite of her horrific beginnings. She plays a bitch on a terrible, culture-corroding TV show. Only in America (and possibly a few other countries).
(Dear Leighton: Your first instinct may be to deny this story, but I wouldn't. Even if it's a lie, just roll with it. This is street cred you can't buy honeycakes.)
