Gossip Girl Blake Lively is dating co-star Penn Badgley.

How does an actress fall for her co-star?

Maybe when they kiss off the set " because its definitely not romantic on the set, thats for sure," Lively, 20, tells August's Seventeen. "When youre saying these words that people are making you say to one another, nothing about it is real or genuine. So if two people connect outside their characters, then thats how they get together.

And it certainly wasn't tough connecting with Badgley, 21.

"Penn does these silly dance moves, and he's very witty and quick, so it's fun to have sharp banter with him," Lively says.

Co-stars Leighton Meester, Taylor Momsen and Ed Westwick and Chace Crawford (who recently denied gay rumors) make her day job a little easier as well.

Everyone is really funny and has such strange things that they do," Lively says. "Like Leighton does amazing voice impressions, and she can impersonate anyones face.

"Chace does an amazing impression of Scott Stapp from Creed.

"Ed is always singing," Lively adds. "Taylor is just so adorable, I just want to bake her a cupcake."

Lively also revealed her secret passion: Guitar Hero!

I play in tournaments in Brooklyn," she says. "Ill cover myself in sailor tattoos and dress like a rock star. Everyone else dresses totally normally and must think Im a complete freak!

Lastly, she says she tired of constant comparisons to Paris Hilton.

"I once heard someone say that I'm similar to Paris Hilton " since I have a dog and blonde hair, that must mean we're alike," she tells the magazine, according to an excerpt in the New York Post.

"It's a dumb thing to say," she adds. "I don't think that makes Paris and me similar ... I don't go to clubs, I don't party, I don't dance on tables, and I don't like sex tapes."

    Cute! Although, who knows if they'll last for too long. Most co-stars don't...and then, it's all awkward. Look at One Tree Hill stars. That blonde guy married one of the actresses and then divorced five months later. Talk about WEIRD. Gossip Girl is alot better than One Tree Hill, though. :)
