New and old actors from new and old CW TV shows made their way to the Gramercy Park Hotel here in NYC last night for The CW Upfronts afterparty … which was basically a chance for them to mix and mingle with one another in celebration of the upcoming season of their various TV shows. Here are a few pics of some of the folks who came out for the soiree last night:
Original Melrose Place alums Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro were on hand to rep their “new” show, the much talked-about new version of Melrose Place (Ashlee Simpson was on hand to rep the show, too, but she didn’t look nearly as fab as Laura did). Some of the Gossip Girls kids were there as well (both Ed Westwick and girlfriend/co-star Jessica Szohr looked extra crispy). The stars of The Vampire Diaries were in the hiz as well … Ian Somerhalder was lookin’ especially cheeky in his dressed down attire. The CW has got some good-sounding programs coming our way this Fall — we’ll just have to see if they deliver. With the line-up they’ve got planned for this coming season, could Fall 2009 be The CW‘s best ever?

I think I’ll definitely have to tune in to the CW! I’m very interested in the Vampire Diaries but I don’t like the girl they chose! I couldn’t stand her in Degrassi as Mia… something about her voice or acting; not sure which one it is.
Yeah the degrassi girl is a disappointment but I absolutely love Ian Somerhalder. He is gorgeoussss. Gossip Girl blows tho.
That is a good-looking group of people!
Haha “extra crispy”…it’s so true. Hopefully Ed will chill with the tanning soon b/c there is no way that Chuck would get that tan.
nothing can beat the roswell, buffy, and dawson’s creek years!! wow i miss those days!
Ooo and it reminds me of the Ugly Betty where Willi and Connor come back from a ski vacation with the same windburn when no one is supposed to know they are dating :).
Haha, Taylor Momsen does NOT look all that happy to be photographed with Ashlee Simpson – I guess it’s not doing her rock chick street cred much good! ;)
Ian Somerhalder and Chace Crawford in the same room at the same time? I guess that ruins my theory they are infact the same person. They should be cast as brothers of something, it’s uncanny!
That whole “teenage angst” look that Taylor Momsen is always rocking is really getting old.
@Chase and Tracy – I agree, Nina Dobrev’s acting is dreadful on Degrassi:TNG but hopefully she’ll be able to bring something good to this role
i agree with Sylvie.
Taylor Momsen is really boring me to death with that look. And i dont think she’s rocking the look either, she looks like someone’s dressing her and she doesn’t like it at all. She should just wear something she likes and that completely suits her.
I’m only in my early 20s but I am totally orgasming over Thomas Calabro, I am definitely gonna watch him, he’s a total DILF!
Thomas Calabro has that macho masculine look to him, that is so hot cause I am soooo over the whole adrogynous look of the Gossip Girl boys (except for Penn badgely) if I wanted to f- a girl i would just go lesbian!
While CW may seem to have a decent Fall line-up, I’m still reeling over the fact that they canceled Privileged. I loved and still love that amazing show.
LOL! why does Taylor Momsen always have to look so angry at the world??
