It's hard not to hate Jessica Szohr.

Okay, maybe it's just hard not to hate her character, Vanessa.

After all, she keeps entering through Dan's window at the most inopportune times - and we'll take issue with anyone that dares to get in between the budding, cute relationship between Dan and Serena.

Szhor seems alright, however. She recently talked about Vanessa's background, specifically her unique sense of fashion.

"In the book, Vanessa was very gothic, always in black, with piercings and when we started the show, they wanted to make her kind of Lower East Side … tight skinny jeans, high-tops, and things like that," Szohr explained.

"I had just moved here so I wasn't aware of the neighborhoods, so when I was doing homework for my character, I went to the Lower East Side."

So, any Gossip Girl spoilers to dish, Jessica? What does the future hold for your character?

"I think Vanessa might get a boyfriend and I don't know for a fact, but I think Dan might say, 'I don't want her to be with someone else,'" said Szohr.

Uh-oh. Does that mean the future isn't so rosy for Dan and Serena?!?
