Grimes and her co-star AnnaLynne McCord, also addressed rumors of a clothing war between 90210 and Gossip Girl.

“We beat the makeup by far, I’ll tell ya that! But oh my god, Leighton [Meester] – I love her. She rocks that show," McCord said. (Check out Leigton Meester on the new cover of Us Weekly)

Grimes said that she'd do a crossover show with Gossip Girl: "We have been talking about that since day one."

Grimes revealed that 90210 alum Shannen Doherty, who has reprised her character on the CW's revamp, has been a big support.

“She’s been through it all. She’s had people slander her constantly," Grimes said. "You’re supposed to smile and be like, 'I’m a happy person.' What happened with her is that they caught her those times when she didn’t want to have to smile anymore.”

During the '90s, Doherty was labeled a "bad girl" by the media.

"I was exploring who I was as a person and testing my own boundaries and trying to be a normal 18-, 19-, 20-year-old, and I got raked over the coals," Doherty told the new issue of Radar. "Many nights I cried myself to sleep over that stuff."
