Hanging with Gossip Girl’s Matthew Settle

March 30, 2009

Poison Ivy ran into Gossip Girl‘s Matthew Settle at New York’s Faces & Names Saturday night, where the new dad gushed about his daughter, spoke candidly about partying in the 80s with director Oliver Stone, and told us what he really thinks about that Gossip Girl Rolling Stone cover.

“Did you see the girls doing that fellatio thing with the ice cream [on the RS cover]?” Settle asked me. “The girls can pose like that, but the guys have to be so careful with every word they say on set.”
The actor also spoke out about wild nights at New York’s Buddha Bar in the 80s, when mastermind Oliver Stone crafted a series of “lipstick lesbian parties,” drawing supermodels from around the world.
“There were no guys allowed,” Settle said. “It was just Oliver Stone, me, and models like Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell.”
But the new dad made it clear that those days were in the past. His newborn daughter, Aven Angelica Settle, born March 5, and wife, Israeli actress Naama Nativ, seemed to be his biggest priorities now.
“I’m a new dad!” Settle told me, before we could even find a place to speak.
Also climbing Settle’s priority list?
A little show called Gossip Girl.
