You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere! Stars Who’ve Threatened To Quit The Business

Leighton Meester

CW’s “Gossip Girl” may have a negative affect on some of the actors on the show. Even though the widely popular drama series made Meester an even bigger star, she threatened to leave the show and acting for good because it almost interfered with the role of her life. Meester wanted more than anything to star in the 2010 film Country Strong. “I threatened everybody in my life, including my manager, my agent and everybody that I worked with” said Meester. “I was like, ‘If I can’t do this, if we can’t work out the schedule, I’m moving to Costa Rica,” she said. “I’m never going to work again. I’m turning off my phone!” she said. “I was bluffing, of course, but it worked.”
