High end beauty is Blair Waldorf’s signature, but for the actress who plays the Gossip Girl Queen Bee, the drugstore is the way to go.

Leighton Meester shared with Stylelist how where she grew up helped shape how she buys her beauty must haves:

“Look, I’m a South Florida girl — if you need mascara, you go to Walgreens,” she said.

The 24 year-old Herbal Essences Brand Ambassador continued:

“One of the joys of my job is being able to try all different products, but if I can spend a lot less on something, I’d rather do that.”

She fessed up to her current beauty craves.

“I’m currently loving those CoverGirl lip stains. The L’Oréal Naturale Mascara is great. And I always pick up cocoa butter. It’s 99 cents! I love it!” said Meester.

Love it!

Can you guess who this super cute girl is?

The girl is 24 years old now. She is an actress and a singer. She recently left Manhattan’s Upper East Side in New York to go country and get herself a hot roommate before heading to Monte Carlo with Selena Gomez.

OK! Enough. Who is she? Check answer after the jump.

Here is the first official picture of Leighton Meester and Selena Gomez’s new movie “Monte Carlo”, which is based on the Jules Bass‘ novel “Headhunters”. The two girls are accompanied by their co-star Katie Cassidy and they all look extra glam and lovely.

The 18 year-old girlfriend of Justin Bieber is the leading lady in this movie. Katie is Selena’s (Grace) best friend Emma and “Gossip Girl” Leighton plays her future stepsister Meg.

“Monte Carlo” tell the story of three young girls (Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, Katie Cassidy), who use their savings for a dream trip to Paris, which turns out to be a big disaster.

When they decide to take a break from their lousy tour and sneak into the lobby of a 5-star hotel, one of the girls is mistaken for a spoiled British heiress.

Before they get the chance to reveal their true identities, the girls are wrapped up in a whirlwind of paparazzi, couture gowns, storybook romances, and living the glamorous life in Monte Carlo.

“Monte Carlo”, a romantic comedy directed by Thomas Bezucha, is set to hit theaters on July 1, 2011.

“Gossip Girl” hotties, Chace Crawford, Penn Badgley and Ed Westwick, heat up a very cold day on the set of The CW’s hit show on the Upper West Side in New York City on Tuesday (March 8)- more pictures below.

I confess I have not been watching Gossip Girl, so I’m not sure what’s happening now. BUT, I know Penn Badgley, who used to date his co-star Blake Lively, is pretty excited to be kissing her archenemy on the show, actress Leighton Meester.

“It was actually the most fun I had had on the show in a while,” Penn dished about his latest on-screen romance. “It was something new for my character, and I was having fun with the rapport, and I think my dialogue benefited from it. It was actually a lot of fun to work with Leighton. I hadn’t much. We were like the only two who had never really interacted.”

NO! No. No. No. I really wanted Dan Humphrey and Serena van der Woodsen to get back together and have beautiful snobby babies!! Boo… Dan and Blair Waldorf are no good together!

Actress Leighton Meester, who is making the transition from TV star to big screen beauty, claims she is all grown up and sometimes “a little bit fat” as the hot cover girl of the upcoming February 2011 issue of Nylon Magazine (pictures below).

In the interview, the 24 year-old talks about her characters, Blair Waldorf on “Gossip Girl” and Chiles Stanton in “Country Strong”, and how important are family and friends in her life. “The Roommate” co-star Minka Kelly confessed Leighton worked so hard to play Rebecca that she even scared her while the two were filming.

Leighton Meester Perfect In Black At The Roommate Premiere

Here are some highlights from Leighton Meester’s Nylon interview:

Leighton Meester on Blair Waldorf: “Blair is…. I don’t know what she is… I have to enter a completely foreign body to sympathize with Blair and her decisions. You know, Blair grew up very savvy, well-educated, and lonely. I think her mother is not the most supportive person and… Blair is very competitive and conniving, and it obviously comes, usually, from a very human place, but she makes decisions that I would never make.”

Leighton Meester on her Country Strong character, Chiles Stanton: “She is so scared of people thinking of her as this ignorant, vapid, pretty face, and you know, I can totally understand where she’s coming from because, especially if you come from Dallas Texas, you’re a beauty queen – you don’t play the guitar, you’re writing seemingly meaningless pop songs. All that I can relate to, totally. It’s sad and sweet at the same time.””

Minka Kelly on Leighton Meester during the filming of The Roommate: “She worked with psychologists; she really studied the illness of the character, so much that at times on set i was a little concerned whether or not she was there because she scared me so much! The look in her eye was so surreal I was in awe at how much she committed to it.”

Leighton Meester on Her Family and Friends: “I like to be judged by my family and friends because they know me. If they think I’m being an asshole I’d like them to tell me, but if I’m fat or something I’m like, “Well, so? OK? Great!” It doesn’t even matter; it’s like, “What if I am fat? Does it matter?”… I’m a grown woman and sometimes, I might be a little fat, you know! Am I alone there? Not really!”
