Leighton Meester may be best known for her role as the snobby Blair Waldorf on the hit CW series, Gossip Girl but she’s now ready to show her darker side.

For the November 2012 issue of Flaunt Magazine, Leighton dons a jet black bob and is dressed edgier than her Gossip Girl character ever would. Maybe her new hairstyle is a liberation of sorts from her character.

In an interview with Just Jared, Leighton expressed love for her new hairstyle by saying:

“Yes! I chopped off my hair after Gossip Girl wrapped. My long, wavy hair got a lot of mileage, so it was time for a change. The girl who did my hair on the show chopped it off and I love it. I hop out of the shower and it takes five minutes to dry!”
