I am proud to present, even if a little late, the January FOTM interview with the awesome Natasha. Congrats, hun! 你 deserve it!! :)
1.Tell us something interesting about yourself that we don't know.
Hmm, not sure what 你 don’t know about me yet, some of 你 know more, but the basic stuff is that I’m from Macedonia, born 年 1989, studying languages and I’m obsessed with everything France related. I kinda have an OCD of keeping things in order and symmetrical. I like to change hairstyles and hair color pretty often. I’m pretty much obsessed with my hair, sometimes when I don’t like how it looks like, I might not go out 或者 not even go to uni and skip classes. These are all the fun facts I can think of for me right now.
2.How do 你 feel about winning FOTM?
I feel very flattered and happy all at once. I think this 月 some of those that haven’t won yet and are constantly nominated deserved to win 更多 than me, so thanks everyone for choosing me for FOTM. It’s a great feeling. Especially considering the fact that I got chosen out of many amazing CBers who daily participate in this lovely spot and are keeping it active.
3.What do 你 like the most about this spot?
The 粉丝 obviously. Our loyalty is something I’m very proud of. My 最喜爱的 sections are the picks that get 更多 creative and funnier every 日 and of course the CBFFC where all my closest Chair 粉丝 hang out at. It’s amazing how active we are even though the 显示 is going cuckoo right now with forced and contrived storylines. The 更多 shit they put us through, the stronger we get.
4.When did 你 start shipping CB and why?
When I started watching GG (winter 2009), I marathoned it so fast, I remember I caught up until 2x17 (the 显示 was on hiatus at that time I think) in ONLY TWO DAYS, so it’s all a blur to me now. But I’m sure I saw some potential in the 1x03 scene in Blair’s room. And then the glorious limo sex happened, which officially got me on board with this ship.
5.Are they your OTP?
My OTP is Jack and Kate from 迷失 (I ship them for way longer than CB and they’re the true definition of epic), but Chuck and Blair are a very, VERY close second. They’re the couple that got me hooked on fandom, they’re the reason I made a 潮流粉丝俱乐部 account, heck – I didn’t even know what the term ‘shipping’ meant and how heavily is used on the internet before getting involved in them. They will forever have a special place in my heart. Corny, but I don’t care.
6.Are they your 最喜爱的 thing about Gossip Girl?
Totally. Both as a pairing and as individuals. I won’t be watching this crap of a 显示 that’s become lately if it weren’t for them. Please let season 5 be the last one. I need my CB happy ending ASAP.
7.What do 你 like the most about CB? What do they have that other couples don't?
Well first, 你 have Ed & Leighton's sizzling undeniable chemistry that just draws 你 in this couple, and then 你 have Chuck & Blair's general storyline. They really are special and not your typical bad boy/girl couple. They grew together, 由 each other, through worst and best. They are these perfectly flawed characters that shake up the screen whenever they share scenes. They are fireworks. How can one not root for them? They are the definition of OTP. Meant-to-be is written all over their foreheads. The facts that they are made for one another are everywhere, from the littlest things like wearing matching outfits to the huge 屁股 inevitable parallels. Whichever bogus the writers throw at them and whatever they're going through, they'll always find their way back and come out as winners out of all that. They've hit rock bottom, yet it's obvious that since they had come back from that almost undamaged that there's undoubtedly no such thing that can take them down.
8.What do 你 like the most about Chuck and Blair as individuals?
One characteristic that they both share, that is also my favorite, is their loyalty. They’re always there for those they 爱情 and care about and are always willing to help them.
9.Is there anything 你 would change about them, if 你 could?
I would definitely erase the IP. For two reasons; one, because I really want that out of their story and two, to shut up all those whiny Blair feminist stans that still can’t get over it and bring that in every argument against CB and Chuck.
10.What's your 最喜爱的 season? And your least favorite? Why?
My 最喜爱的 season for them is season 2. Before answering why, I’d like to say that I really, REALLY 爱情 season 1 too cause it’s the beginning of them, and I have a huge soft spot for that season in general and get nostalgic about it every time I think about old school GG and CB. I 爱情 season 2 the most cause it’s like a heaven of epic (as ‘epic’ as it can get in teen shows) CB moments and it’s the season that showcased real feelings from both of them. I know some people might say that they get tired of the whole ‘3 words 8 letters’ storyline, but I adored that, I loved how it started off in the season 2 premiere and how it came full 圈, 圈子 in the season 2 finale.
My least 最喜爱的 season would be season 3. The Ban shit that’s happening right now might make me rethink this, but the first half of season 4 was AH-MAZING nonetheless, while what I didn’t like about season 3’s first half was that CB were brought down to a guest 星, 星级 level and basically shoved in the background. Though they did share some of the cutest scenes ever that still make me swoon beyond belief, then. Now 秒 half of season 3 did get 更多 exciting, but there was too much unnecessary drama like the IP and the Chenny stuff. Hoping season 4 will bring 更多 goodies when it’s back from hiatus and not continue with this Ban nonsense, 或者 season 4 will become my least favorite!
11.What's your 最喜爱的 episode? Why?
This is too hard. I feel like I could give a different answer every time 你 ask me this question. I’ll go with 2x01, though. It has my number one CB scene of all times, it’s a great GG episode in general, amazing, and needless to say, the best premiere, the setting is beautiful, it setup their season 2 storyline… it was all around perfect.
12.If 你 had the chance, what scene 或者 episode would 你 erase from the show?
See answer to 问题 #9. ;)
13.If 你 had the chance to write a scene for the show, how would it be like?
Don’t ask me this. I’ll either make them too cheesy, too ansgty, 或者 have them have sex in every corner of the world, cause there’s never enough CB smexiness. Let’s say I’d write them a nice dance this season, cause my OCD is telling me that they must share a dance every season and that’s simple to write, so I wouldn’t mess anything.
14.What kind of CB scenes would 你 like to see 更多 in the show?
Sexy and angsty. Can 你 say I’m a sucker for angst? AND SEX?
15.Did 你 ever cry watching some of their scenes?
Yes, quite a lot of times. Though, me crying on CB scenes happens 更多 often when I re-watch their scenes 或者 when I’m watching some super angsty CB fanvids, usually while GG is throwing them under the bus with contrived storylines.
16.Do 你 like the way their story has been handled?
Can’t say I completely do. 你 know, there are two certainties in life; we’re all born to die, and the GG fandom, including me sometimes though I don’t really care about this 显示 anymore, will always find something to complain about. I just really wish the writers give them what they deserve at the end.
17.When do 你 think they will get back together again?
I really don’t think they’re having their reunion at the end of season 4. But I definitely do hope they end up this season on a good note. Then, they could rebuild them in the course of season 5 cause I think the 下一个 reunion they’re having, will be for good. If they put them back together too soon, the bigger the chances of them being crashed 由 an even bigger hoopla will be. So I’d rather wait. Maybe for the 100th GG episode, which is 5x13, methinks. :)
18.Do 你 ship Chuck 或者 Blair with anyone else in the show?
NO. Never multishipped with them, never will.
19. What other GG couples do 你 like and why?
Nenny and 面包车, 范 der Baizen along with Chair would be my perfect GG endgame trifecta. These three pairings combined have the best chemistry on this 显示 and have (had) storylines with the biggest potential IMO. Too bad the other two weren’t 给 another real chance.
20. What's the best part of shipping CB?
Being a part of the awesome fandom that CB shippers are, having guaranteed endgame, being graced with Ed and Leighton playing your 最喜爱的 couple and them shipping CB, saying all those wonderful things about them and about one another.
21. What do 你 think about the haters? Do they bother you?
They can stay pressed forever for all I care, the stuff they say is rather delusional 斯莱什 laughable. And honestly? They made me ship CB even 更多 hardcore and just brought us CB shippers even stronger. Win-win for us and our couple.

Sad scene – 1x10 Chuck watching NB.
Angsty scene – 1x13 “I don’t want 你 anymore.”
Season 2:
Episode – Kay, I’ll cheat here, so since I answered 2x01 in one of the 问题 above, I’ll say 2x25 now. It had CB fluff, cuteness, angst, hotness, sadness, heartbreak, finally ILY too, basically EVERYTHING.
Quote – 2x14 “Don’t 你 understand? I’ll ALWAYS be here! I don’t want 你 going anywhere. I couldn’t 熊 it. So whatever 你 want to do to yourself, please don’t do it to me. Please.” “I’m sorry.” “It’s okay.” BAWL.
Hot scene – Other than 2x07 make out scene I already answered above, I’d say the 吻乐队（Kiss） scene before Serena’s text message cockblocks their hotness in 2x08.
Cute scene – 2x25 “Can 你 say it twice? … No, I’m serious, say it twice!” “I 爱情 you, I 爱情 you, that’s three, four, I 爱情 you.” CUE MAJOR SWOONING.

Angsty scene – 2x25 “I 爱情 你 so much it consumes me.”
Season 3:
Episode – 3x12 The Debarted
Quote – 3x13 “I’ll ALWAYS be your family.”
Hot scene – This season lacks CB hotness, that’s for sure. :/ I’ll go with the 3x07 kiss.
Cute scene – 3x22 Blair bringing the peonies to Chuck. That’s an amazing scene if 你 take it out of context and who’s hiding in the bedroom and what has just happened.
Sad scene – Entire 3x18, really. That one is painful to watch.
Angsty scene – 3x17 “Goodbye Chuck.” EL killed it. *thud*

Sad scene - 4x09 “If two people are meant to be together, they’ll find their way back.”

25.This 或者 that:
Chuck 或者 Blair - Chuck
Ed 或者 Leighton - Ed
fluffy 或者 angsty - Angst
sad scenes 或者 happy scenes – Happy scenes. A bit contradictory from the 前一个 this 或者 that, but oh well.
scheming 或者 cuddling – Cuddling. Scheming is reserved for old school CB. :P
endgame 或者 journey – Copout, but BOTH. CB ARE the journey and they WILL BE the endgame. DEAL WITH IT. *puts on Cb shipper glasses*
limo sex 或者 钢琴 sex - Limo
Dair 或者 Chenny – Oh gawd. 你 live to torture me, don’t you? I’d say Chenny, at least they have CHEMISTRY.
Nair 或者 Chanessa – Chanessa, no brainer.
Derena 或者 Serenate - Derena
Nair 粉丝 或者 Dair 粉丝 – Nair, they’re voiceless.
26.Would 你 like to say a few final words to your fellow CBers?
Thank 你 guys for voting me FOTM, it really is an honor, seeing that we have so many amazing active 粉丝 around this spot, and thank 你 Cintia for preparing these 问题 for me, I enjoyed answering them and hope 你 guys like it. Sorry if I rambled too much, but that's a 给 when it comes to these two. LONG LIVE CB AND MAKE OUTS THAT AREN’T FREEZE FRAMES. And actually having smoldering chemistry. And pwning other stuff in every single way. WOOT.
