Blake was up to finish high school when she got the co-starring role of Bridget in "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" on 2005.

Blake was perfect for the part of Bridget, so much that with no big references or even auditioning she landed the part! She revealed she walked in and left a photo of herself and that was it, yet it was clear that she was the Brigit needed.

After "The Sisterhood", Blake went back to high school for her senior year to have the life of a regular teenager, a very busy regular teenager. The multi-talented girl was class president, a cheerleader and performed with the choir.

Blake also starred in the movie "Accepted" with Justin Long, and has another project due titled "Elvis and Anabelle".

Daughter of actor Ernie Lively and talent manager Elaine Lively and sister of Jason Lively, Robyn Lively, Lori Lively and Eric Lively.

Sister-in-law of Bart Johnson.

When auditioning for "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" (2005), she walked in and gave them nothing but her photo, since she had never done anything before that, they all thought she was joking but when she left the room, they knew that she was definitely the Bridget they wanted.

She stayed busy juggling duties as class president and cheerleader as well as performing with her national championship show choir.

Has stated that she has known her "Gossip Girl" (2007) co-star Penn Badgley since she was 11 years old.

Loves going to Disneyland.

She was involved in a lot of activities at her high school including: cheer-leading, choir, and student government. She was class president.

"Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" (2005) was her first job, not just in acting.

Ranked #43 on the Maxim magazine Hot 100 of 2008 list.

On "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee" (1989), stated that she her older brother didn't want to go to school alone when it came time for him to be in 1st grade. At the time she was three but very tall for her age. Her mother lied and said Blake was 6. Blake attended 1st grade and the school reported that she was "slow" when in reality she was 3 and couldn't talk very well. She claims it made her brother happy, so she was happy.

PERSONAL QUOTES:
My whole family's been in the business. My whole family is crazy.

(About filming racy scenes in "Gossip Girl") It's the most awkward thing! There's a room of 40 people watching you, they're telling you exactly how to move your head, and it's completely silent. It's awful!

In high school, there are so many cliques. You're never safe. In between my junior and senior years, I went away to film "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants", and I came back ready to do the things with my friends that we always did, but things change. People get older, and there are some inside jokes that you don't know about that have happened. You feel lost for a while, and it's hard to come back from that. Then the friends who have "replaced" you are territorial. I've experienced that a little bit. There are catty, insecure, and gossipy girls everywhere, but for me, I don't think it's a matter of any of them being genuinely bad at heart. I just think that maybe the different ways in which people are raised make them different and insecure. They point out the bad things in others just to make themselves feel better. It's everywhere.

(After moving to New York to film "Gossip Girl") I was raised in California, so this whole New York winter thing is completely new for me. I've already justified buying seven coats!
