Ms. Meester also shared about the tattoo on her wrist. "This was years ago before Gossip Girl, and my best friend Jess Manaford wrote and directed me in a movie called Remember The Days, she says. "She's got a lucky star, so I was saying one day that I really wanted to have a tattoo. At the end of the movie, I was so excited that we were finishing and I was also really sad because it was the best movie experience I've ever had. We were in North Carolina - so close - made friends for life. We became so close so we got tattoos." justjared.buzznet.com
