Leighton Meester Launching Music Career

Leighton Meester, aka Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl, wants to be a singer now. Why must all the young actresses do this? Didn't she learn anything from Scarlett Johansson and Hayden Panettiere? She tells Us Magazine she's working on releasing her album, which she calls "a good mixture of hip-hop sounding, very vibe-y music."

Here's Leighton singing in the movie Drive Thru. We have to admit, her voice is really cool, but every time we see her we can only think of Blair Waldorf!
