Eagerly awaiting the release of Leighton Meester's sex tape? You may be out of luck. The girl said it doesn't exist, not even a little bit, no matter what anyone says. Nope, zero, wrong, don't even think it. ( Annnnnnnd I think the lady doth protest too much.)

"[The tape] is not real," the Gossip Girl star says in the September issue of Harper's Bazaar. "So it makes me sort of sad. It's unfortunate that it got carried as far as it did."

In June, TMZ.com claimed a company was shopping around an X-rated video shot a few years ago that featured the actress engaged in nude acts with an unidentified partner.

Meester, 23, says she learned a lot about the pitfalls of fame from the experience, saying, "I don't want a lot of what comes along with all of this.

"I definitely understand the nature of people better now and that the mere allegation of something like that could be headline news," she went on. "People think it's real because somebody says it is." (Us Magazine)

How many times have you heard this exact speech: "I swear to God there's no sex tape of me." But then three months later, there it is, hitting the shelf. When this happens (and it will), I want Leighton to personally apologize to each person who read her interview. Clothing for this apology will be optional. For you. For her, it's forbidden.
