Did Blake Lively & Penn Badgley split up?

fp_5922245_lively_badgley_aar_102010

These are some new photos of Blake Lively and Penn Badgley filming Gossip Girl in New York on Wednesday. Fame Pictures notes that for a couple that has been together for two years, they seemed especially awkward on set together, and thus, they could be broken up. Or maybe they just had a fight? Or maybe Blake was feeling not-so-fresh? Or maybe Penn was feeling not-so-fresh? It could be anything.

Though Gossip Girl costars Penn Badgley and Blake Lively have been dating for over two years, pictures taken Wednesday, October 20, 2010, suggest there may be some turmoil between the once-happy couple. When Badgley and Lively passed each other on set, the normally affectionate pair exchanged a strange side-hug and air kiss more indicative of casual acquaintances than lovers. Are the two actors the latest couple to suffer a celebrity breakup?

Could be. It wouldn’t surprise me. I’ve long thought that Blake would end up dumping Penn once she found a good stepping stone boyfriend (or “jumpoff” if you will)… someone like Ryan Gosling, perhaps? I also still think that Blake had something going on with Ben Affleck, and that was when she was “with” Penn too. Penn is either very understanding, or he’s totally dumb and clueless, or maybe he just doesn’t give a crap. Penn and Blake haven’t been spotted together off the set anytime recently, although I did find these photos of a chaste looking kiss between the two of them back in September:

Yeah, that doesn’t look very passionate to me, but what do I know? Maybe they have split up. Or maybe… f-ck, I don’t care.

  2. Shelley says:

    OMG she was slim before but now is gaunt – so sad, and makes her face so caved-in and
    manly looking.

  3. YOYO99 says:

    She has GREAT leggs!

  4. Marjalane says:

  5. Jenny says:

    She is flawless,love her beautiful face and body ,she can do better

  6. Sandy says:

    She looks so gorgeous even in that stupid ugly hairstyle

  7. Kitten says:

    Nah, they’re still together. Sorry, Kaiser.

  8. Linda says:

    I support Blake and Chace!!!!!!!!!!
    Blace FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  9. crab says:

    How old is she? She already has those parenthesis lines around her mouth! She shouldn’t have those for a while!

  10. Jack says:

    She is a goddess ,he is a jerk.

  11. reallyjustaggfan says:

    how is he a jerk?
    I think they’re fabulous together and this is kind of really upsetting!
    nooo!

  12. liz says:

    Meh, flawless, gorgeous, pretty – whatever. She is. But that came after some major plastic surgery and an ego inflation trip. This girl bores me.

  13. I Choose Me says:

    What leads you to the conclusion that he’s a jerk Jack. Not that I know, as I’ve never met the guy but Tim Gunn met him on set and said that Penn was one of the nicest, friendliest guys he’d ever met. So yeah, I’ll take Tim Gunn’s word – since he’s actually met him – over yours.

    Anywho to echo Kitten, they’re still very much together based on some smooching, frolicking, beach pics of them I saw as recently as two weeks ago. And although she’s getting on my nerves I still don’t think she and Ben had anything but a harmless flirtation going on. Shit Ben flirts with everybody. Did ya see him with the Hamm?

  14. Relli says:

    Didnt she allegedly dump her long time high school boyfriend to hook up with Penn? Ah so she is just like Jennifer Garner, trades up for new boyfriend to go with the career.

  15. Ferguson. says:

    Neh, they’re fine.

  16. Chelsey says:

    I’ve always liked them as a couple…they never feel the need to flaunt or share their love and/or affection…in fact, I think that kiss on set is the cutest, and such a clue into their relationship of how comfortable and happy they are. Not every celebrity couple has to be all glitz and in-your-face about their relationship…

  17. Jen says:

    I don’t know about you, but chaste kisses are the only way I kiss my husband in public. So if someone doesn’t see me falling all over him, does that mean there is trouble with us, too?

  18. Moi says:

    Yeah, tongue kissing in public, especially at work, is totally inappropriate and actually kinda gross. Chaste pecks are as far as pda should go!

  19. gabs says:

    Im sure hes still the official bf but of course shes going to trade up when she can. This girl is very desperate and famewhorey.

  20. vivien says:

    She is definitely pretty, but i wouldn’t say gorgeous or flawless…maybe i just don’t get it because i don’t watch gossip girl, but her face isn’t that great to me. Fabulous body though!

  21. Anti-icon says:

    Isn’t this one of those showmances that are so popular among young hollywood….and, er, all of hollywood.

  22. sandy says:

    i agree, she is not that good looking, she is boring,another blond in Hollywood and she is a fame whore, she shows up for every event, i bet she will dump him the minute she thinks she made it, like everyone already said,she is desperate.

  23. Kate says:

    Meh. They’re both meh. Moving on!

  24. Camille says:

    Moi: I was just wondering where that poster whose full name I can’t remember but it has ‘Hamm’ and ‘Dream Man’? in it, was just spouting on about how a couple kissing on film sets was ‘ZOMG’ the most terrible thing ever recently.
    I am super surprised she is not here going on about how terrible BL & PB are for doing so as well. Guess she only picks on, err I mean calls out Brad and Angelina. 😆

  25. Eline says:

    Why is everybody haiting Penn and saing all that stuff that he is a jerk?
    Youn never met him! Stop acting like a gossipmagazin! hello I saw him in a interview yesterday, he was really nice! Why does everybody throws that shit about him and them, they are sweet togheter. I agree with “choose me” !

  26. Eline says:
