Michelle Trachtenberg Joins ‘Gossip Girl’
Buffy alum Michelle Trachtenberg is joining the cast of Gossip Girl, reports TV Guide.
Trachtenberg, 22, will play Georgina Sparks, a troublemaker from Serena’s (Blake Lively) past. Mischa Barton reportedly turned down the role.
You just know there’s going to be a Blair (Leighton Meester) and Georgina showdown!!!
Michelle’s comeback career since 2003’s Buffy is certainly starting to take off! She’s also starring alongside teen heartthrob Zac Efron in 17 Again, out in August.

I think she looks better than Mischa Barton.
Nooo! Mischa should’ve took the role instead of her. She doesn’t look like a gossip girl type at all.
Is it a permanant role? Or just a couple of episodes?
It’s only a recurring role. She shouldn’t be around long. I’m not worried. I haven’t seen much of this girl but I’m sure she’s a better actress than Mischa. She fits the physical description of book!Georgina. Although, I believe there taking her in a whole new direction on the show.
*shrugs* I don’t care. As long as she doesn’t mess with Blair.
she was hot in Eurotrip
but i hated her squeaky yelps on buffy
woah i just remebered Harriet the Spy - i havent seen that for donkeys all i remember is Sport and the blue paint
i see they got a girl who wasn’t all to attractive, so no more attention would be taken from meester. with blake being the hottest girl on the show (by far) and getting all the attention they need someone who will make meester look a little better .
cool! i love her and she was really good in buffy! i’m glad to see she’s getting more roles, mischa or any o.c. star doesn’t work for me, i know josh created both shows, and i didn’t like the o.c. so i hope they let any of those crazy people on here..i like the “new comers” on gossip girl!
ooh, she is??…can’t wait to see her there,…she ussually plays a goody2x role..can’t wait to see her mean side on screen….
PS: Cant wait for the Sparks & Waldorf Showdown..lol. =}
@ Summer: Hm, okay. I always pictured her blonde.
It still doesn’t change the fact that MT cannot act for her life. She’s just terrible. And she doesn’t look beautiful enough to pass as a Snow White.
ugh. I don’t like either her or Mischa. One of the reasons gg works is because all of the actors are relatively new. I hope she doesn’t have a big part. OR steal scenes away from blair because let’s be real…those are the best.
Eh…bad casting. They need an actress with more sass.
She’s beautiful.
Didn’t watch Buffy, so I have no opinion on her acting, but wow, that is one ugly girl.
i prefer misha barton..michelle is really gorgeous..and obviously misha …i dont know…she and nate are couple???…i hope not…..jenny and nate..is the best couple!!!!….but taylor(jenny)misha or michellee are beautiful and really good actress…and michelle are really,really good luck…she work with zac efron and chace crawford….waou zac efron…but zanessa _4ever!!
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!
the girl is gorge. y’all are crazy.
MUCH better choice than Misha Barton (worst.actress.ever).
I can’t wait for Gossip Girl to be back on MONDAY April 21s on CW!!
