The next photo showed the You star rocking Momsen’s signature smoky black eyeshadow for a sizzling selfie.
“A reunion worth waiting for… but don’t ask us what’s going on in the second photo, we don’t know either,” the podcast’s official Instagram captioned the teaser post.

For the tapes, Badgley kept it casual in a crew neck jumper worn over a navy T-shirt and slim black pants.
Meanwhile, Momsen oozed ’90s grunge glam as she dropped an oversized flannel shirt from her shoulders and wrapped herself in sharp silver chains.
The pair previously portrayed siblings Dan and Jen Humphrey on the long-running CW series, which ended in 2012.
They made ttheir respective debuts as the Humphrey siblings on the first season of Gossip Girl in 2007.

Badgley spoke about his time on Gossip Girl during an interview with The guardwhere he discussed working within the tropes of a teen drama series.
‘People associate me with a certain kind of storytelling. We have studied it; it just feels natural and fun. My adolescence and growing up in Hollywood are a complete joke,” he said.
The performer also said he saw Podcrushed as a way to deal with the emotions he felt as a young adult.
“In terms of my own personal reconciliation and my place in it, I’m not so sure…but I’m using this time of life as a doorway to culture, identity and self-worth,” he said.
