Actress dazzles as major movie icon

Actress dazzles as major movie icon, Blake Lively is hardly recognizable in her glamorous attire for the 100th episode of "Gossip Girl."After five seasons filled with plenty of fierce fashion, decadent parties, and delicious scandal, "Gossip Girl" reaches its 100th episode on January 30. 

Fans of the show know that Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) often escapes reality by reveling in Audrey Hepburn fantasies, but for the show's milestone occasion Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively') will be indulging in a dream sequence of her own. In the episode, Serena channels the iconic Marilyn Monroe in a pink dress, elbow-length gloves, and heaps of diamonds à la "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" from "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes." 

Along with Blair dressed as Audrey, the dapper dudes of the Upper East Side will be joining Serena for the musical number in fancy suits and sashes. According to executive producer Josh Safran this Marilyn number has been something he's wanted to film since the show's first season. "It's something we've never done before. From Season 1, I said, 'I want to do this.' But it just wasn't the right time. I've been pushing it for five years, and it finally happened." Click through to check out more photos from the scene.
