Here are 14 little-known facts about the character.

Her full name is Blair Cornelia Waldorf.

Blair’s full birth name, which is mentioned several times throughout the series, is Blair Cornelia Waldorf.

Even after her parents separated and her mother remarried, she did not change her name.

Since her birthday is in November, she is probably a Scorpio.

In episodes such as “Only Adults Can Do That” and “The War of the Roses”, Blair’s birthday is given as being in the fall.

Both episodes aired in November, which likely means Blair is a Scorpio, a sign that matches her passionate but manipulative nature. Further proof: In the Gossip Girl novels, her birthday is said to be November 15.

She has a cat named Cat with her father.

Blair’s father and his partner live in a castle in France with a room specially designed for Blair, where she has a cat named Cat in homage to Audrey Hepburn’s pet in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

A song featuring Meester plays as Blair enters an NYU party on the show.

Blair was portrayed by Leighton Meester, who also had a brief music career.

Meester was featured on “Good Girls Go Bad” by Cobra Starship. The song plays in season three when Blair shows up at Georgina Sparks’ rooftop party after Dan Humphrey steals the show.

She is closer to her parents than most of her peers.

The parents of the characters on Gossip Girl are usually embroiled in their own chaotic dramas: Nate Archibald had financial and legal problems, Serena van der Woodsen’s mother had numerous relationships and health problems, and Chuck Bass’ family occasionally attempted murder.

Unlike her peers, Blair is quite close to her parents. Her mother, Eleanor Waldorf, is sometimes too busy with work to take care of her, but her father, Harold Waldorf, loves her and always makes time for her when he is in the country.

Blair is the first to find out about Dan and Georgina.

After all the chaos Georgina caused in the first two seasons, Dan’s decision to date her in season three came as a surprise to their friends and many viewers.

Blair was the first to find out about their relationship because she was Georgina’s roommate at the time.

She finds delays unbearable.

Although Blair can be dramatic, she is not a fan of being late. She is always on time and can get angry if others are late for important appointments.

Blair found herself at loggerheads with several parties, including when Nate was late looking for her at the season one masquerade ball and when Carter Baizen was late to Rufus Humphrey and Lily van der Woodsen’s wedding.

Blair has studied famous war figures.

Blair is constantly plotting to get what she wants, a skill she has perfected by studying famous military figures.

When planning the NYU freshman toast, Blair mentions that she draws inspiration from Mao, Sun Tzu, and Napoleon. In a plan for season six, Blair also says that she studied Byzantine warfare.

In moments of extreme tension she appears unusually calm.

Blair has some memorable arguments with her friends, but when she’s at her most stressed, she seems disturbingly calm.

Chuck and Nate comment on this in the season three Cotillion episode when Blair and Serena are arguing. She had previously seemed calm when she was worried about Serena going to boarding school.

Blair was in the main group with all her male friends.

The series’ core circle of friends consists of Blair, Serena, Chuck and Nate, and occasionally includes Dan and Vanessa.

Blair has dated all the men in his circle of friends: Chuck, Nate and Dan.

She has a sister who is named after an Ivy League university in the books.

Although Eleanor and Cyrus Rose marry in the series, they also have a daughter together in the Gossip Girl books. Blair gets to choose her younger sister’s name and decides to name her after her dream school, Yale.

In the books, Blair is also described as having a younger brother from Eleanor and Harold’s marriage and two adopted brothers from Harold.

Blair is bilingual.

Blair repeatedly mentions that she is fluent in French, a skill she may have learned after her father moved to the countryside.

When Blair and Serena spend the summer in Paris at the beginning of the fourth season, Blair speaks French several times.

Most of the episodes are named after her.

Each episode title of Gossip Girl references popular movies. Different characters have episodes named after them, such as Serena and Dan with “Desperately Seeking Serena” and “Memoirs of an Invisible Dan,” respectively.

Blair has the most episodes to her credit with four titles, including “Bad News Blair,” “Blair Waldorf Must Pie!”, “The Blair Bitch Project,” and “The Unblairable Lightness of Being.”
