Chace - Photoshoot

Thu, Jul 23, 2009

When viewers last saw Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) in the season finale of “Gossip Girl,” he was heading off to Europe with ex Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szorh) after splitting with Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) yet again – but the actor told Access Hollywood on Thursday he’ll have a new love interest this fall.

“She’s a beautiful southern girl,” Chace said of his character’s new romance, played by “Privileged” star Joanna Garcia. “They’ve got the conflicting family backgrounds, [so] they kind of hide the relationship and it plays out. It’s good....

We'd rather meet him in the flesh, but even a virtual flirt with the Gossip Girl star got us all hot and bothered...

Company: Ok, so we've been checking you out on Facebook and you have over a hundred fan groups - some claiming they want your babies!
Chace: Ha ha, really? That's hilarious. It's flattering, but it might be scary to meet those people in person.

C: BTW, you beat your mate Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass) hands down for fan numbers too...
CC:No way! I'm not going to be the one to break that to him...

C: Us neither. Are you used to scary fans now then?
CC: It's really weird when I'm in the bathroom...
