The new "B" on the "Gossip Girl" block is none other than Lydia Hearst, a 100% genuine Grade A socialite in real life. As you may know, Lydia is daughter of Patricia Hearst and heir to the Hearst fortune. In other words, she was literally born for this show.

Lydia plays Amelia on the signature CW series and is scheduled to debut on May 19. Look at that rose. She's clearly going to put the moves on old Chuck (Ed Westwick). Now whether or not Amelia puts Chuck in a headlock or a liplock remains to be seen.

One thing we do know (thanks Craigslist!) is that the "Gossip Girl" finale will end with a gigantic, glamariffic wedding of the year.

But who do you think will catch the bouquet?
