alifornia, here we
cooome... again!
Uh-huh, Rachel
Bilson has stoked

a potential revival of
The O.C.by declaring
that she’s super keen
to reprise her role as
Summer Roberts.
“I’m always open to
things... It would be nice
to see everybody again,”
the actress says. Um...
Best. News. Ever!
But one star who
might not be heading
back to Newport
Beach is Summer’s
true love Seth
Cohen – aka Adam
Brody. Noooo!
Yep,NW has
learnt that Adam’s
wife Leighton
Meester is
laying down
the law when
it comes to
the reunion
rumours- telling the
actor he’s all
but banned

from working with his ex
girlfriend, Rach, 35.
“You can’t really blame
Leighton for reacting this
way,” our insider says of the
former Gossip Girl star, 31.

were together for more
than two years.”
Given that
Rachel and Adam
helped make the
show one of the
biggest hits of the
noughties, with
fans going wild for
their romance on

wonder Leighton’s reacting
in such a “Blair Waldorf way”.
Says our insider, “They had
epic chemistry, which is
bound to make Leighton
feel pretty nervous.”
Well, once a Queen B, always
a Queen B – right, girl?
Of course, if a reboot does get
the green light, it’s likely Adam
and Rachel would be doing just
about every scene together,
because Seth and Summer tied
the knot during the show’s

on-screen couple?
“I don’t know what it would
look like with our characters
being old now. We were riding
skateboards on the pier –
I don’t know what they do now
as 30-year-olds... I’m sure
[Summer] has kids with
Seth. I don’t know!”
But sadly for O.C.
fans, unless Seth
and Summer have
divorced and only
have a few scenes
together, Adam’s
role in the reboot
will be strictly limited.
“He’s so madly in love
with Leighton and their baby
girl Arlo that he just doesn’t
want to put her through any
stress,” the insider explains.
Of course, the possibility of
old feelings being stirred up
between Adam and Rach is
slim, given she’s also well
and truly moved on.
Since 2007, the Hart
Of Dixie actress has been
in a relationship with
Hayden Christensen, 36,
with whom she shares
daughter Briar Rose, two.w M l t i t b
While he’s umming and ahing about saying yes to the revival,
Adam admits he’s already reprised the role of Seth...
In his first-ever joint interview with Leighton – during a
recent charity event in LA – the actor toldEntertainment
Tonight that “once a year, randomly, on our Seth And Blair Day,
we dress up... It’s good for a laugh.” Best. Thing. Ever!
And while Leighton gets a giggle out of pulling on Blair’s
headband every now and then, what really cracks her and
Adam up is when fans lose their minds over the fact that
Queen B ended up marrying Seth Cohen IRL.
“It doesn’t excite us,” she revealed. “We’re just human
beings... but it’s exciting to us that it’s exciting to [fans].”LEIGHTON

ADAM!
We heart Summer and Seth 4eva, but Adam’s
wifey won’t let him anywhere near his ex Rachel...
