Taylor Momsen

the lights ever actually think we'll start your house to burn. I mean, of course about my birthday, but you know, Laly and Dad and all of us together. I don't know, thing's just seem to be going really good. Hey Young Hollywood, it's Michelle Murray here at the Henry Fonda Theater with Taylor Momsen. This is a huge performance for you tonight with your brand new band, The Pretty Reckless. You're the front woman of the whole movement you're doing with this new band. How do you like to describe the sound of your music? It's rock. Heavier than people are going to expect and it's a little darker and it's really coming from me. I mean, you're getting made.

Well, I'm sure there's a lot of people that think that it's going to be this pop record just because of, you know, the Gossip Girl and everything like that, but I think that you have, you know, definitely a good correlation there because a lot of your fans from Gossip Girl, hopefully will become fans of your band. You know, I think it's shocking the people who know me already a little bit, um, they're kind of going, "Whoa!" Because it's not just pop. It's not just what you predict to come off of Gossip Girl. I was singing before I could speak. You know, I've been writing since I was like four. So, it's not like something I just picked up overnight.

You started out very young, you're only 15 years old. And you've just done so much with your life and we've always known that you're on the verge to emerge. Where do you see yourself going with music, with acting, with everything that you do? I just know that I want to continue making an art, whether that be in film or music or whatever. But uh you know, as far as film goes, like I don't want to stop acting, but music's the priority right now and the show clearly. Do you see yourself as a superstar like a Madonna or someone that just crosses over completely, you know, as an ultimate goal. If people like it and fame comes with it, awesome.

If not, you know, I'm happy doing what I do as long as I can for an apartment and food. Like I'm happy. Cool. Now, the great thing about this time is because of Gossip Girl, now that show just gained so much popularity in, you know, just a few years and your life totally changed. You're trying to make me feel better, you're failing. Look, all I'm saying is that big proposals are great. Sure. But yours is something more important. It shows that you really know her and you love her for who she is. You're right, I do. How do you feel, you know, about the position you're in right now especially like with the show and everything like that?

This show's really changed my life in a lot of ways and I have to say it's the best thing that's ever happened to me. I mean, the city is amazing. The energy, it's just it's so inspiring. How did you help each other throughout the way of the success? Because I know you get bombarded all the time with paparazzi and all that kind of stuff. We all got thrown together. Like it wasn't, you know, I hadn't met anyone until filming. So, we're really lucky that we all get along, because it could be really bad. And uh it it's worked out really well. I feel like you have like that different edge.

But is there a misconception about you or maybe something that they don't know about you or might not know about you that you would like them to know? I changed the way I dressed at a certain point. Um and it wasn't that I was changing the way I was dressing. It was just that I started dressing myself. So, um, you know, so people were kind of going, "She's a poser" and "She's very fake" and "It's all put on to try to be a certain way." Do you really see me? I'm kind of bearing my soul on stage and in the way I look and dress and present myself and it's just it's just the way I am so. I have to say I've interviewed so many artists, but you're a true rock star. You really, really are.

Hey Young Hollywood, I'm Taylor Momsen uh with the band Pretty Reckless. We're here at the Henry Fonda Theater. Stay tuned.

I feel like you have like that different edge. But is there a misconception about you or maybe something that they don't know about you or might not know about you that you would like them to know?
