While her co-stars Blake Lively and Leighton Meester have shot to fame with their roles in Gossip Girls, Jessica Szohr is still hoping to make it onto the A-list.
But her latest role, while not even onscreen, may be about to change all that.
The 25-year-old strips off and poses in nothing but a slick of body paint in an advert for a softdrink.
Going naked: Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr strips off for a new drinks advert for SoBe Lifewater
Painted to look like a reptile, she reclines in a waterfall and runs naked through the streets of Costa Rica.
Jessica stars as Vanessa Abrams in the hit show Gossip Girl and is dating her heartthrob co-star Ed Westwick.
But she has not experienced the same level of success as some of her co-stars.

The advert is sure to increase Jessica's profile after it is seen in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition in February.
Jessica isn't the first young actress to star in the campaign - last year Twilight's Ashley Greene posed for the advert.
'Last year's SoBe Lifewater skinsuit shoot took place on a gorgeous beach; this year's skinsuit shoot in the jungle was still amazing, but a little different. It definitely had an edgy vibe that I loved,' said Jessica.
