Blake Lively is a Bulimic Beauty Queen

Blake Lively and co-star Taylor Momsen bundle up on the windy set of Gossip Girl on the Upper East Side of Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon.

Lively, 21, will next play a bulimic beauty queen in the indie film, Elvis and Annabelle. Co-starring Mary Steenburgen and Joe Mantegna, Blake describes her character and tells W magazine that when filming, it was the healthiest she’s ever been. She shared, “I play a beauty queen who died of bulimia. But beauty queens are still very toned. So I lost weight, but I got toned. It was the healthiest I’ve ever been!”
