You may remember when Leighton Meester gave us all a glimpse of her dancing prowess during her burlesque performance in the first season of Gossip Girl. Now it seems the 23 year-old actress is looking to round out her "triple threat" resume with a record deal...
Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester, who's been plotting to launch a music career for a while now, has signed with Universal Republic records. Her debut album will launch in the fall, the label announced today. (E! Online)
Take a listen to this cover of Kim Carnes's "Bette Davis Eyes" that Leighton released earlier this month...
So what do you think? Ready for the Grammys or stick to your day job? We actually don't hate her voice, but as we've said before, "Bette Davis Eyes" is our karaoke song, and we don't like to think anyone can rock it out like we can.
