Michelle Trachtenberg was getting hard at work mastering her best b*tchface between takes on the set of Gossip Girl in NYC yesterday. Her character is on the show to stir up some trouble for Serena, and it looks like Michelle's got her bad girl essentials — tight liquid leggings, sassy heels, and lots of eyeliner. She's already a far cry from the rest of the super preppy cast, so we can't wait to see what happens when Michelle spices things up next month.

Luv her! She looks so pretty. Keep up the good work Michelle.
1Urgh. I must maim whoever thought 'liquid leggings' were a good idea. She looks like a sausage
2But, she is pretty damn cool.
3She's a pretty girl and I can barely contain myself that it's almost premiere time!
Lima Bean, why don't you e-mail Popsugar about your issues instead of commenting about them?
4LOVE this girl! Another Buffy star makes good.
5I have to say I love the leggings!
6Those earrings are awful, but Michelle is gorgeous.
7i cant wait!!
8I think she's definitely gonna nail it! She looks like she's about to kill someone with her glare of eternal death in the second one.
9woooo SO excited!!!
10I can nooottt wait gg!
11It feels just like yesterday she was a little girl in "Harriet the Spy." Man how time flies!
12Nicola, the person you would have to kill in this case is Karl Lagerfeld. Good luck with that. And while you're at it, you could steal some Chanel items that are actually pretty and share them with us.
13ooo she looks AMAZING!!!
14i love nate!! woo hoo!!!

17omg karl made leggings!! wow!! i cannot believe that!! you are a smart cookie mz panta!!! what does your name mean?!?!
18Too much eyeliner, methinks. I can't believe she's playing a mean girl in Gossip Girl.
19shes playing georgina sparks I think theres going to be major drama
20i love the shoes! harriet the spy is coming up in the world =o]
21Ugh I really dislike her, I hope her stint is short lived. With all the hot young actresses out there this is what we get?
22Hey tearsfromthesky- the name comes from the book 'the golden compass'. Check it out,it's better than the movie.
Saw those leggings on Fashion TV. He was really pleased with them. Ugh!
23Doesn't Michelle look like she could play Jenny's sister? I see a big resemblance in their faces.
24yay
25Ok so I really wish we got this show in Oz, but we dont. Michelle looks awesome but yick to those leggings, on anyone.
26Me too buffybot. I want to watch it!
27love since she was on Buffy cant wait to see her on GG
28Oooh, Michelle! I've missed her ever since Buffy!
29she looks really good here!
30I'm still trying to decide what's worse: the shoes, or the leggings. *shudder*
At least, Michelle is a cute girl...
31My daughter and I both love love Gossip Girls! I can't wait for the premiere! YIPPPEEEE! I'm on the fence about the leggings...part of me loves it but I'm not sure if I'm trippin' lol.
32mischa would have been good for that role..IMO
33its amazing how she they really made her look highschool age- i mean she's at least 21 right? you know who woulda been good for a part on this show? the girl who played mischa barton's sister on the OC. she had that b*tchy highschool girl thing down lol
34o and i'd never wear the leggings- i'd look ridiculous in them- but some people can actually pull them off.
35Hmm...did anybody read the books? Wasn't Georgina the girl Nate met in rehab and had a short-lived romance with? I don't recall her being part of Serena's story. Not that it really matters - this show does its own thing.
36love the shoes!!
37I'm really glad she took Mischa Barton's place in the cast! Cannot waitttt for GG to return!!
38Those Lanvin shoes she has on are like 2 seasons old... another reason I dont watch GG- the bad girl can't have old shoes, she has to be one step ahead! COME ON! haha
39C'mon Bri, she's been in re-hab! You think she had access to fashion mags in there? Oh wait... LOL
40I am super excited about this!!! I love Michelle Trachtenberg...she's one uber-cool, chic!!!

@ Bri and Mykie
42This hosuld be interesting. I really like her as an actress. I like the leggings.
43She's ok.
44i don't watch this show but michelle is all right. i hate those leggings though. ugh.
45i watched a couple re-runs from the first season and now i am HOOKED! can't wait for April 21st!
46oc sugar,
Isn't it great!!! I was initially being so anti-GG and then I watched a mini-Marathon and it's AWESOME!!!
47She should be really good judging by the look on her face in the second picture. She always looks cute but that look is seriously scary like she's going to attack you at any moment.
48DCStar
49Georgina was Nate's gf for awhile in the book but I remember her and Serena getting into a bit of trouble on the ski trip lol..but you're right the show is completely different from the book..I'm addicted to both..apparently someone is going to reveal that they're gay this season
Well she is certainly dressed to kill.
