He may be PEOPLE's reigning Hottest Bachelor, but Chace Crawford doesn't stand a chance with Leona Lewis.

The singer says she turned down a chance to smooch the Gossip Girl hunk when he appeared in her latest video because she thought it would make her beau, Lou Al-Chamaa, jealous.

"They wanted me and Chace to kiss in the 'I Will Be' video. But I said no way," she tells the U.K magazine Sugar, which goes on sale Saturday.

POLL: Which Summer Romance Will Last?

Originally posted 08/19/2009 01:40PM

As the summer blazes on, celebrity romance has been heating up. New couples like Renée Zellweger and Bradley Cooper – who escaped to Barcelona recently – and Twilight costars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson – who have been quietly hanging out – have emerged. Meanwhile, Chace Crawford was spotted smooching Twilight's Ashley Greene. And exes Drew Barrymore and Justin Long say they're just friends, but the two, who are filming Going the Distance together, sure seem like more than that off-camera.

So, tell us, as Labor Day approaches and summer winds down, which celebrity couple do you hope will last until fall?

Gossip Guys Get Help Sprucing Up Their New Digs

Sorry ladies, PEOPLE's Hottest Bachelor Chace Crawford already has a special woman in his life to help decorate his brand new bachelor pad: His mom.

He's also not the only Gossip Girl actor on the move. He and his mother actually ran into costar Penn Badgley on a recent trip to look for lamps at Crate and Barrel.

"He was with his mom shopping for his new place, too," Crawford told PEOPLE at a Manhattan launch party for the BlackBerry Tour smartphone from Sprint. "It was really funny. I was like, 'What are we doing here, man?' And he's like, ‘I don't know. Right now it looks like we came together with our moms to Crate and Barrel. What's going on?' It was embarrassing."

But Crawford, who moved out of the apartment he shared with Ed Westwick – also recently spotted furniture shopping – says his new digs are coming along.

Talk about a scene-stealer!

After taking up temporary residence in the Big Apple to shoot his latest romantic-drama, Remember Me,, Robert Pattinson has been making his way around town, dealing with countless crowds simply trying to get a glimpse of the Twilight hunk at work.

But now, school is back in session. The cast of Gossip Girl is shooting around the city – and hitting their favorite upscale hotspots – for the third season of the CW's guiltiest pleasure. A colorful Leighton Meester was recently spotted getting chummy with bad boy Ed Westwick, while Chace Crawford strutted the streets solo.

Whatever you do, don't call Ed Westwick pretty.

Asked about Chace Crawford's comment in this week's PEOPLE about his "Velcro patch of chest-hair," Westwick, 21, didn't bat an eye, though he did deliver a snarky retort of his own for his friend and fellow Gossip Girl costar: "I'm just not a pretty little boy, now am I?"

No doubt the hordes of young women gathered at Bloomingdale's K-Swiss Classic Remastered dance party Thursday in Manhattan would disagree. Wherever Westwick, 21, goes, fans automatically congregate.

Chace Crawford was happy to be named PEOPLE's Hottest Bachelor, but the Gossip Girl star says it wasn't until he considered his competition that the honor really sunk in.

"We were trying to watch the college games last night," Crawford, 23, told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show Thursday morning. "Me and my friends are flipping through and Access Hollywood, they're like x-ing out the other guys. When they're x-ing out [George] Clooney, that's when it hit me. I go, 'Wow, that feels pretty surreal.' "
