  Gossip Girl moves time Slots for Season 3

Looks like our favorite Upper East Siders are moving…but not far.

The CW confirms word of a schedule changeup: One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl are switching time slots on Monday nights, with OTH launching at 8 p.m. and Gossip Girl moving to 9 p.m.

Could the move mean our graduating Gossip Girl characters are growing up and need a later hour for more adult storylines? Read on for the scoop, plus the official list of fall premiere dates for all your CW faves!

According to a network rep, it’s not the aging up of the GG characters that’s causing the move, but rather the swap is because (a) “OTH has always been a self-starter” (meaning that its success is not lead-in dependent) and (b) because 9 p.m. is a “less competitive” time period for CW crown jewel Gossip Girl.

For the record, at 9 p.m. on Mondays this fall, GG will be facing off against Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory on CBS, Trauma on NBC, Dancing with the Stars on ABC and Lie to Me on Fox. The 8 p.m. competition would have been House on Fox, HIMYM and the new Jenna Elfman comedy Accidentally on Purpose on CBS, Heroes on NBC and, yep, Dancing with the Stars on ABC. (The 9 p.m. hour does sound less brutal!)

Gossip Girl Season 3 starts on Monday September 14 at 9pm/8c. You can get the full CW run down here

  Jessica & Ed to Be @ Much Music Awards

Right, so this is where things go from crazy to balls-out insane. Like, start inventing the most powerful earplugs known to man. Start preparing yourself for weird tremors in your belly. Start practicing your mobscene protection tactics. Start forgetting about the concept of personal space. Things are about to get legendary.

As if the Jonas Brothers, Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarkson and Black Eyed Peas weren’t enough to send Queen Street into a frenzy, throw some New Moon, The Hills and Gossip Girl cast members into the mix for utter insanity. Taylor Lautner and Rachelle Lefevre from the upcoming New Moon will send shockwaves down the red carpet, as well as Ed Westwick and Jessica Szohr from Gossip Girl AND Brody Jenner & Audrina Patridge from The Hills.

Wait, waaaaaait, I’m not done. Kim Kar-freaking-dashian will be here. And Rumer Willis. And Anna Lynne McCord from 90210. And Perez Hilton.

Still not done. Big shot MMVA nominees will crash the party too: Lights. Marianas Trench. Danny Fernandes. The Midway State. Theory of a Deadman. Karl Wolf. And oh, why not Nico and Natalli from So You Think You Can Dance Canada? Or how’s about Mika? Let’s not forget our dose of sportsmen – Chris Bosh from the Raptors and Alexander Ovechkin from the Washington Capitals will be here too.

The Much Music Awards will air  June 21st. If there is anyone that is able to record this for me please let me know!

  Jessica talks Piranha 3-D

“It’s a remake of a 1970’s movie,” Szohr told JustJared.com. “I’m shooting right now in Arizona, and it’s been so hot — 115 degrees! My character’s name is Kelly. It takes place in Lake Havasu, but it’s called Lake Victoria in the movie. She’s a sand rat girl who grew up there, fell in love with this guy, and there are piranhas all over. And it’s going to be in 3-D, which is going to be crazy to see. My mom was like, ‘I have to pay an extra $3 to get the glasses when I go to the movie?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, you do mom!’”
