Blake Lively joined her fictional family, Kelly Rutherford and Connor Paolo, on the set of Gossip Girl in Manhattan today. Blake's East Coast locale means she'll be missing tonight's People's Choice Awards in LA, though Leighton Meester will be there to represent the show if it wins in any categories — we'll also be broadcasting live from the red carpet and backstage so tune in! Blake and her costars are back to work after a holiday break in which she reportedly snuck up to Canada to visit Ryan Gosling at home with his family and rang in 2011 Vegas-style. She's also officially confirmed as the new face of Chanel while Gossip Girl remains one of your favorite shows on TV. It's back from hiatus on Jan. 24 with fresh faces in the mix and until then test how well you've been paying attention with Buzz's midseason quiz.
