Hi, I guess its adj. is gossipy. I didn't find gossip as an adjective in the dictionaries.

"Gossipy" is the adjective. For "Gossip Girl", it's merely a descriptive term but not necessarily an adjective, same as "United Nations Ambassador" or "Wal-Mart Employee". Or see it this way: "Ambassador of the United Nations", "Employee of Wal-Mart", "Girl of Gossip". I think you're asking if "gossip" can therefore be applied as an adjective to other words, but this is not so. Use "gossipy".
