Blake Lively: Second Grade Sucks!

On-and-off-screen couple Blake Lively and Penn Badgley hold hands as they walk to the New York City set of of Gossip Girl on Wendesday (January 14).

Blake shared with Vogue that when she entered a private school in Los Angeles in second grade, for the first and only time in her life she did not fit in. “It was the only school where people were just downright mean to me,” she recalls. “They would make fun of my clothes because I dressed differently than the other kids.”

Be sure to check out Blake’s Vogue cover shoot. Check out the behind-the-scenes video and the mag’s feature story at Vogue.com.

Blake is pretty, BUT, she has said this same ” second grade ” story before, and NOW has changed the ” excuse “……..Before, she said, ” she was a shy and sheltered little girl “, and thank goodness they ” wore uniforms in that private school “, so she would NOT have to compete with clothes also….” that was a relief “, she said….
I don’t know why she is changing her story, unless she went to TWO different 2nd. grade schools in the same year……

It’s called lying to garner sympathy or imply she dressed “fashionably” before and wasn’t excepted, or has risen out of fashion failure.

And, yes, isn’t the point of private school is the uniforms and extra programs?

blah blah blah Blake.

i whish she’d stop being pseudo “down to earth” and just admit how much of a media *****/ fake she is.

i’m sick to death of her horrible and boring interviews where she’s always trying to make herself sound sympathetic/wholesome etc…

blah blah. She’s ok to look at, but has nothing interesting to say.
