Leighton Denies Sex Tape

“Gossip Girl” star Leighton Meester is on the cover of the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar, and the first thing she addresses in the interview is the rumored tape of her having sex at 18.

The actress insists, “[The tape] is not real, so it makes me sort of sad. It’s unfortunate that it got carried as far as it did. I definitely understand the nature of people better now and that the mere allegation of something like that could be headline news. People think it’s real because somebody says it is.”

Too bad she didn’t make such an emphatic statement at the time the tape surfaced. But she didn’t have a new season of “Gossip Girl” to promote then, did she?
