Understudy from Spring Awakening. This is a big deal for him, Gossip Girl is one of the hottest shows out there. People seem to think he'll be playing Leo the dog walker.

I find it entertaining that Spring Awakening has one guy coming in from a hit TV show [Lost] and another guy going onto a hit tv show [Gossip Girl]

Gossip Girl is all filmed in Manhattan for authenticity sake. My friend's dad who works at Hunter College had his office infiltrated with them for a couple of days to film.

Jesse is so gorgeous. :sigh:
I saw him as Hanschen and he was wonderful.
Jesse plus Gossip Girl = Clumsy's dream.

One of the things I like about GOSSIP GIRL is that it's one of the few shows set in NY that actually takes place in NY.
I'm still not over the fact that UGLY BETTY stopped filming in NY and now we have to put up with those awful blue screen shots of Queens.

his sister, Ariana Swenson is a sophomore at the Boston Conservatory with me. Jesse was a student here last year, and would be a senior this year.
