And we thought Nate was privileged before.

EW sources confirm that Joanna Garcia, star of The CW's Privileged (which was cancelled, to the surprise of some fans) has booked a four-episode story arc on Gossip Girl as a love interest for Chace Crawford's affluent alter ego, Nate Archibald.

Joanna Garcia will be playing the character of Bree Buckley, an irreverent, slightly evil Miss America-type who hails from a conservative Southern family.

She will first appear in the September 14 season premiere. Any predictions for what this means for Nate? How about the rest of the Gossip Girl gang?
