Gossip Girl actress Leighton Meester has revealed that she is infatuated with love because it is something that is understood by everyone. For this reason, she admits to falling in love with people frequently because it is simply so intriguing to her:
”I love love. It’s the most intriguing universally understood emotion, and it comes in so many forms; family love, love of friends. I fall in love with everybody all the time.”
Speaking on the idea of marriage, Leighton says that when she was younger she didn’t believe in it because she though it only meant sex, but these days she is more open to the idea but wouldn’t want a big wedding:
”When I was a kid I thought marriage was sex, but if I ever am in a situation where I want to be married, I don’t think I’ll have a big wedding. Hopefully it would be about something way more secure than that.”
Commenting on her success so far, Leighton says that she isn’t measuring how great things are by how famous or rich she is – she is simply seeking happiness and says this is something she has found in her career so she does believe she is quite successful:
”You can’t count on success in this business. And anyway, being famous or rich or making a certain kind of movie – none of that means ‘success’ to me. Success to me is being happy and fulfilled, truly fulfilled, and being proud of myself and doing different things all the time. So thus far, yes, I’ve been successful.”
