LYDIA HEARST NOT Returning to GOSSIP GIRL

For any Gossip Girl fan dying to see the aftermath of the hookup between Chuck Bass and interior decorator Amelia, played by real-life socialite Lydia Hearst, I've got bad news, it ain't happening.

"I actually will not be returning to Gossip Girl," the heiress revealed to me while hosting the 6th annual National Underwear Day party sponsored by freshpair.com at New York City venue Espace last night.

(We always knew Chuck was a love 'em and leave 'em kind of guy.)

So the Upper East side playa is on his own again, but Chuck shouldn't be so sure he can pick up where he so rudely left off with Blair.

This season, Blair will get chummy with Marcus, a boy she meets on her solo holiday. (Should have made it to Teterboro, Chuck!)

But back to the socialites… One may be crossed off the GG list, but there's always room for another. Fashion designer/gal about town Tinsley Mortimer is slated to appear in this season's opener.

Hopefully Lydia, who is currently taking acting classes, will be back for another GG cameo at some point in the future.

Gossip Girl, season two, rolls out on Monday, Sept. 1 at 8 p.m. on The CW.
