Pippa Middleton and Chace Crawford

She's only been in New York for a few days, but Pippa Middleton is already hanging out with Manhattan's elite!

The British party planner, 28, introduced herself to Gossip Girl actor Chace Crawford, 27, at hip hotspot Electric Room inside the Dream Downtown September 3. "They didn't party together but they spoke for 10 minutes," an insider tells Us Weekly exclusively. "They had never met before but Chace has met Prince Harry a couple times."
