This Halloween, Gossip Girl and budding pop star Leighton Meester skipped out on trick-or-treating to join forces with Weezer at their Hammerstein Ballroom show in NYC. During a special performance of the band’s first single “(If You’re Wondering if I Want You To) I Want You To,” she traded off lead vocals with front man Rivers Cuomo. Nat Wolff (of the Naked Brothers Band) joined in on guitar! Check out the concert footage!
You can now download Leighton’s single “Somebody to Love” featuring Robin Thicke from iTunes here. Watch for the video to drop soon! Leighton’s debut album will be released early next year.
