"Gossip Girl&amp;#039;s Blake Lively has reportedly revealed that she doesn&amp;#039;t want to &amp;quot;play it safe&amp;quot; when it comes to her career.  Lively, who portrays Serena van der Woodsen in the show, said that she intends to move away from &amp;quot;commercial&amp;quot; roles. She told Marie Claire: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m on a very commercial show, so the last thing I want to do is a commercial movie. &amp;quot;I wanna take risks, I don&amp;#039;t wanna play it safe. I mean, I could probably make more money if I did more commercial projects. It would be nice to buy an apartment but I&amp;#039;m 22 and I don&amp;#039;t need to yet. &amp;quot;I live in New York City. So, I&amp;#039;m able to differentiate between what I want and need and what I want more is to do great roles.&amp;quot; The actress added that she doesn&amp;#039;t know how much longer Gossip Girl will be running for: &amp;quot;We have six-year contracts but who knows how long TV shows ever run? &amp;quot;They don&amp;#039;t always go the full season contracted\u00E2\u20AC\u00A6 We&amp;#039;re in season four.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
