Taylor Momsen talks leaving 'Gossip Girl' Rumors

Interviewer: Your character on Gossip Girl, Jenny Humphrey, used to be more of a timid and quiet girl and then she broke free and became a rebel. With you, we also got to know you as a naive girl who now is a rock star with edgy style. It is not so off to assume there are similarities?

Taylor: I don’t think we are similar. But Jenny was the youngest character on the show, thus she was the one to go through more changes than others. As seasons passed, the writers have started to make adjustments to her character little by little. But at the end, Jenny’s come to resemble me more, when you compare it with the begining of the series.

Interviewer: There were rumours about you leaving the show, for a Jenny-spin off.

Taylor: Really, never heard of it. But who knows?

Interviewer: Some people believe you used Gossip Girl as a means to get your real dream which is your music career. Is that true?

Taylor: There is no such thing. Music has always been my true passion, my priority. I have always sang but the difference is that now more people get to listen to it. That’s pretty much it.

Interviewer: Being a star of a teen show, we were expecting you to have pop music career, like your co-star. You kinda surprised us there.

Taylor: But I never gave a thought to pop music. Its always been rock in my entire life, and I only composed rock music.

Interviewer: Your make up on the music video of ‘Make Me Wanna Die’, how you stripted down was a hit topic all around the world. Was it all a pack to serve a certain image or your true dream?

Taylor: When you are on the show, you act like a character. Everyone thinks you are the same person. However with music it is different. It’s real me. Taylor on the video is the real me.



Interviewer: What are you like when you fall in love?

Taylor: I don’t have a boyfriend. I’m a bit shy actually. A romantic girl!

Interviewer: And the rumours that your attitude on set caused a riff between you and the producers of the show, Gossip Girl?

Taylor: It’s complete bs. I’m still definitely on the show. Please don’t buy the crap of the magazines. Normally, I don’t even feel need to address these rumors.
