Riverdale and Gossip Girl are two very different shows.
Riverdale is a murder mystery set in the small town of Riverdale while Gossip Girl follows the fashionable teens of New York's elite who are so popular the internet is always talking about them.
However, Riverdale and Gossip Girl have something in common: an icy, fashionable, rule-breaking brunette.
Yes, we're talking about Veronica Lodge and Blair Waldorf. Veronica could totally be a younger Blair Waldorf, fleeing to New York with her mother after something sketchy happens to her family in Riverdale.
1. They're Hot
Both Veronica and Blair know they are hot. They could literally wear anything and it would look great on them. It's no wonder every boy at school wants to be with them.
2. They're Fashionable
Soapy dramas are notorious for having the latest trends, and whoever handles the fashion for Veronica Lodge was channeling Blair Waldorf. We're quite alright with that.
3. They Have Business-Minded Mothers
Eleanor has a high flying fashion line. Hermione is looking after her husband's affair while he spends time in the slammer, and has been trying to expand it. Wouldn't you love for these two to meet?
4. They Don't Follow Rules
Both Veronica and Blaire are quick to throw snark at whoever thinks they follow rules. These girls are powerful in their respective cliques, so why would they need to follow rules? They can make their own.
5. They Have Daddy Issues
Veronica's father is in jail for being a not-so-savory member of society, and Veronica wasn't very pleased about it. Blair's father ditched her mother for another man, and Blair was not pleased about it. We watched Blair go to war with Roman before realizing he was a nice man. We'll meet Veronica's father for the first time on Riverdale Season 2!
6. They Each Have a Blonde-Haired BFF
Veronica's best friend in Riverdale is none other than the beautiful Betty Cooper. Over in New York, Blair's ride-or-die is Serena Van Der Woodsen. They're both blonde and complement their brunette counterparts very well.
7. Their Specialty Is Ice
Neither woman takes too kindly to anyone rubbing them the wrong way, so they react in the best way possible: By staring down whoever looks at them wrong and icing them out of social events.
