Penn Badgley, star of Gossip Girl and the upcoming film The Stepfather, opens up to about relationship advice and romance in the October 2009 issue of Women’s Health magazine. Here are the highlights:
The best piece of relationship advice he’s received: “Passion is number one and trust is number two. You need to start with a passionate connection, and if you can maintain it and cultivate it, that’s most important. Then trust can develop. I have both now, and it’s been an incredible thing.â€
The most romantic meal he’s cooked for a woman: “Earlier this year I went to Thailand and took some cooking classes. I learned how to make classic Thai dishes, which are exotic, spicy and quick and easy to make—and a rare thing to cook for a woman. I made a yellow curry with pineapple. I think pineapple is very sexy. It reminds me of bikinis and the beach.â€
The Gossip Girl character he’s most like in real life: “Nate is too normal, and Chuck is too bad. I understand Dan, even though he’s too nice sometimes. He’s just so earnest that he can’t help but mess up. But in our third season, he’s going to have more fun acting out of character.â€
Catch this interview in the October 2009 issue of Woman’s Health magazine, the cover features Christina Applegate on the cover.

Did you know it’s been almost ten months since Heroes was last on? I can’t even believe that! And in the first volume of the season “Villains” we don’t quite know who is bad and who is good. So how can we sort that out?
The season premiere kicks off with future Claire (Hayden Panettiere) trying to shoot future Peter (Milo Ventimiglia) to stop him from going back in time and committing a murder. Explosive events at the Company land matriarch Angela Petrelli (Christine Rose) in a new and powerful position. And Dr. Mohinder Suresh (Sendhil Ramamurthy) will finally get a superpower of his own — one that sends him down a dark and scary path.
“He injects himself with the serum he developed to cure Maya [Dania Ramirez] and doesn’t know how to control it,” reveals Ramamurthy. “It becomes a real Jekyll-and-Hyde thing. I never would have imagined that the genetics professor who’s been getting his ass kicked for two seasons would suddenly be the one who’s kicking ass.”
Or getting laid. Monhinder and Maya will have some extremely steamy encounters this fall — a first for the show. “Heroes is not known for romantic relationships because it would be so lame to have two people kissing and making eyes at each other when the world is at stake. We needed to go all the way in a raw and real way,” Ramirez says. “Our show is geared to the young, male audience. I think they’re ready for some sex. And,” Ramirez adds with a laugh, “who’s better than me?”
I have to disagree though that the show is geared to a young, male audience. I know alot of people my age and who are female just like me that watch the show. And when Peter was kissing that girl last season I have to say I liked watching that. They should have more romance on the show.
