'Gossip Girl' Taylor Momsen in Nike commercial?
Here at Pet Rock we love us some "Gossip Girl." Yesterday I spotted a video on the Internet of one of GG's stars, Taylor Momsen, who plays little Jenny Humphrey, pulling some crazy parkour / ninja moves while running from the paparazzi.
On first watch (yes, there were multiple viewings) I thought, wow, this girl is a badass. But then doubt crept in. First of all, she's not THAT big of a star. Why would so many paparazzi be following her out of a workout? Then I noticed that her sports bra has a prominent Nike logo and that the camera pans down to her shoes, also obviously Nike, before she takes off running.
Just Jared blog notes that Momsen's co-star Ed Westwick is a K Swiss spokesman and that Leighton Meester is a Reebok spokeswoman. Did Little J get the most lucrative gig of all? Share your thoughts.

Yeah, I think this is a Nike ad. That's the second thing I thought when I saw it. (First was, Holy crap! She needs to be in a Jessica Bourne movie!)

After watching this I searched for it online. I found it on a shoe blog, along with another Nike commercial similarly done, and they claim they're both nike ads.

the saut du bras at 00:36 was completely fake. All I have to say
