LEIGHTON MEESTER DOESN’T HAVE TO PAY HER MOM: Leighton Meester does not have to give her free-loading mother any money. The Gossip Girl star filed a court request last year, asking that a judge rule that she is not contractually bound to pay her mother for the rest of her life because she “sacrificed her happiness” to help her daughter pursue her dream. After Meester filed the motion in 2011, her mom Constance filed her own lawsuit claiming her daughter owed her $3 million. Although Constance eventually dropped her claim, Leighton went forward so that she’d have a judge’s decision in writing.

He explained, “I can confirm that Lindsay has not signed on to be a part of the John Gotti movie, nor is she in talks to join the cast. It does not look like an agreement can be made. Lindsay’s representatives and film producers were unable to come to an agreement. Lindsay has the utmost respect for Barry Levinson [the director of the movie] and the producers and hopes to work with them in the future and wishes them all the best.”
