So, I just got the e-mail that May's BB will be partnering with Gossip Girl! Looks like this one is automatically for everyone - no opting or opting out!

The (long) e-mail I got:

Today we are thrilled to announce that we have partnered with the CW's hit drama series "Gossip Girl" to create a special edition Birchbox for the month of May filled with Gossip Girl-inspired glamour!

Curated by the series' department head for makeup, Amy Tagliamonti, and department head for hair, Jennifer Johnson, the May box will be branded with "Gossip Girl" key art and will contain chic beauty products inspired by Manhattan's poshest social set. The partnership is timed to the show's season finale (scheduled to air May 14, 8/7c on the CW). For "Gossip Girl" fans, season finale clues will also be part of the in-box materials to drive fans to tune-in on May 14th!

The May 2012 Birchbox will ship to all current Birchbox subscribers and to new subscribers who sign up now at: www.birchbox.com/gossipgirl.

omg DEAD. I've loved gossip girl since I read the books when I was like 14-15. SO EXCITED. AND LOOK AT THAT BRAND LIST. Time to reopen my second account lol. 

 
Looks like they learned from the TV mess last month. I am happy no one gets an option, so if they dont want it they can trade the box or unsubscribe

 
That was my first thought too: 'glad I have 2 boxes'

Looks like they are keeping it simple so as not to have any one upset/missing out! 

"Existing Birchbox subscribers will be receiving “Gossip Girl†boxes in May. There is no need to join this list."

 
where are you seeing the brand list?

I must be totally missing this - where is the brand list? I think I'm excited, just because the TV box was so awesome. But, then again, if it's too commercially geared towards Gossip Girl, it could be irritating.

 
yes! cannot wait for this! wonder if we'll actually get it in time for the finale on the 14th!

 
I am glad they are giving it to everyone!  I am sure it makes their life easier and they have learned from the TV debacle. I think this box will be fun!  I have been less of a GG fan this season but still love the hair and make-up ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I would think no, it seems they want you to watch GG to get hints.

Right. Except for the part that clearly reads: "For "Gossip Girl" fans, season finale clues will also be part of the in-box materials to drive fans to tune-in on May 14th!"

Which makes me wonder if they're going to actually ship early next month to make it for GG! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

So hopefully we're getting early shipping next month!

 
GG is my guilty pleasure....I hate to watch it but I can't look away.  This is really exciting...might have to sign up for a 2nd box for this month.  

 
Yuuuup. 

Sorry, MyGlam. lol
