We all know Blair Waldorf as Serena van der Woodsen’s over-the-top, sarcastic, and scheming best friend. And while Serena was the star of the show, it was Blair who left a lasting impression as one of the most misunderstood characters in the series.

After all, there was a reason Serena kept coming back (even after Blair pushed her into a water fountain in Paris to sabotage her date…but that’s beside the point).
