Whilst talking about how different the time was when they shot Gossip Girl with no social media, Chace also recalled how Penn was the first one to have an iPhone on the sets of the show back in 2007. Recalling the same, Crawford said, "Remember, ’07 was when the very first iPhone came out. I remember you got it. I remember you had it at a Halloween party. You had the first iPhone, and think about that now. I remember we were more about camera phones and this and that. There wasn't social media."
Responding to the same, Penn revealed how his first-ever iPhone was a gift from then girlfriend and co-star Blake Lively. Talking about the iPhone being a gift, he said, "Blake [Lively] got me that. I literally was like, “I don’t want this thing. It’s so cumbersome, and it has all these apps on it.”Blake Lively Posts Major Gossip Girl Throwback Pic With Leighton Meester to Celebrate 10-Year Emmys Anniversary.
