The three male stars of Gossip Girl - Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford - were collectively included in People's recent list of the hottest celebrity bachelors - and with very good reason!

We know Penn Badgley and Blake Lively are hitting it off, and Chace Crawford has had his share of girlfriends. But for Ed Westwick, being on one of TV's hot shows doesn't help the dating scene.

"I'm new to American dating," says Ed Westwick, 21. "Back home in England, a night out at a pub is great. Now I've graduated to the dinner stage and the whole conversation thing. I'd rather grab a drink, be around music, with other people's friends around as well. It takes the pressure off."
