She has become famous due to her role in Gossip Girl as Serena van der Woodsen, a girl from Manhattan who loves fashion and men, and people often associate her with her character. However, Blake Lively, the covergirl of the July 2012 issue of Marie Claire, claims she is quite a different person. She takes relationships seriously and has been with just four men in her life.
Blake Lively for Marie Claire July 2012
Blake Lively said during the interview with Marie Claire’s representative:
People like to draw parallels between my life and the scandalous stories on Gossip Girl. I dress the same as my character, so they think, She lives this life on and off set. I recently shared how many boyfriends I’ve had [four], and people were like, ‘That’s impossible!’ But it’s true. I’ve been with very few people. If I’m not with somebody who really excites or inspires me, then I’d rather be by myself.”
But Blake does admit fashion is part of her life, way of self expression, and explains why she doesn’t have a stylist:
Because I love fashion. It’s such an expression of self. I often see people and they look great, but I can identify who styled them. Every stylist has a signature. Maybe it sounds jerky, but I’m lucky to be on such a fashion-centric show [Gossip Girl]. There’s no designer I don’t have access to.”
Returning to the topic of men Blake Live, who is currently dating Ryan Reynolds, told what she is attracted to:
It’s definitely attractive when a man can dress well. What I love most is when someone, guy or girl, is effortless and has this old-timey sort of feel [that] you could take a snapshot of them and they could exist in any time period.”
She also added one has to love food if he is with her:
To be around me, you must love food or I’m the most obnoxious person you’ve ever met. I’m in a big cooking phase. That’s all I’ll talk about.”
Speaking about her plans for wedding she said:
What I planned before I got into the business has changed. Now I’m like, “Hmm, I wonder what shoes Christian [Louboutin] is going to make me. And which couture house should I go to?”‘
Blake Lively shared about what it took her to prepare for her Savages role:
I went to the gun range and learned how to shoot a gun for the first time. It was awful. I asked myself, ‘Why were these things ever invented? But I did feel good that my first three shots were straight to the heart. It’s good to know – don’t mess with me in a gun battle.”
