Ed Westwick plays charismatic bad boy Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl, a young gent so dirty he conjures up memories of Oasis’ Noel and Liam Gallagher.
Well, when he’s not acting, the filthy youth actually fronts a band called just that - and two of his songs will be played on Gossip Girl January 2.
Westwick’s London band, The Filthy Youth, will be heard as “Orange” and “Come Flash All You Ladies” play on the January 2 episode, entitled “School Lies.”

As lead singer, Ed Westwick co-wrote both tunes with rhythm guitarist Jimmy Wright. Gossip Girl’s network, The CW says that Westwick describes “Orange” a song about being with friends and “ripping it up,” while “Come Flash All You Ladies” is about certain women Ed Westwick has met throughout his life.
