@@skylertomesek5441 omgosh, yes! like a really kool rock rendition of 'Where Are You Christmas' and 'You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch'. that'd be awesome. just as like a one off, side project.
I love how much she seems to love this film. Its the only acting role I have heard her not be reluctant to speak of in interviews. She never seems hostile about it unlike Gossip Girl. I love her Christmas posts on SM using grinch pictures. So glad she seems happy here talking about it. The grinch cartoon and original grinch story is my mom’s favorite. And it is nice that Taylor loves the happiness this film brings every holiday season.
Taylor Momsen is a real legend. She was part of a movie that's a classic for christmas at the age of 7 and she's now the lead singer of The Pretty Reckles, which already have five #1 on billboard👏🏽👏🏽❤
I love how there is no regret from doing this movie. Some child stars regret their past works or hate still being connected to them years later. I feel it is a classic and I love watching it with my kids! I love her music too and while I was shocked to find out she Cindy Lou Who I was also happy because she succeeded in life where some child stars can just fade a way!
I remember watching a react video of Mara Wilson reacting to a video of kids reacting to her famous role as Matilda and I liked how positive she was being in the video especially when the kids didn't recognise the movie
It is because she has found her true passion - music - and ran the whole nine yards. Good thing she didn't land the title role in Disney's Hannah Montana
No, the best version is the original cartoon. Taylor Momsen did a good job in this movie, but other than that, the live action is overrated. The set looked ugly, like christmas in a warehouse. The writing was horrible and most the jokes werent funny.
@@zacharylee1995 Nope. For those of us who grew up with only the original animated story, nothing else will ever come close. Boris Karloff's narration alone surpasses all versions that will ever come along, not to mention being the only true voice of The Grinch. Taylor is the best part of the live actor version which is otherwise quite forgettable.
You can definitely tell she's maturing and getting older. Before she always had such a cold personality in interviews and she seems a lot more engaged and warmer here.
To be honest a lot of people were quite hostile to her in the past and I think that mixed with shyness made her seem that way, I think it was a defensive action. Can you imagine being in the public spotlight ever since you were two years old and trying to start a band when everyone just thought of you as pretty little teen actress with no talent? She always said one of the reasons she wanted to be in a band was to have control over her own destiny.
i'm soo glad as a child you had a positive Hollywood experience!! There are 100s of stories of child actors who were abused physically and mentally! IMHO you made the correct choice by fronting a rock band! Saw you in Maplewood, Mn about 3 years ago. I was very impressed with the band that backs you up as well as you!!
Even luckier because she had nice parents! Some of the abuse that child actors go through it's because of how their parents put a lot of pressure onto their children once success reaches them and they get a bit too much of hot air and so they push them to succeed in most unhealthy ways. There's a reason why the phrase 'stage mom' exists.
A future legend, discussing legends she has works. So much talent. Don't stop writing and performing! You are a few steps above any other rockstar, of today. I can't wait for the new album to come out.
I’m surprised she’s speaking so positively about it, and smiling when looking back she seemed to go dark for a while. And I remember her saying or acting like she regretted acting. And wanted nothing to do with her acting past. It’s nice to see her look back fondly on the grinch
I said the same thing, which is why I clicked on it so fast. I'm like "she's smiling, lemme see what this is about", lol. I wonder why she didn't mention Gossip Girl, because for me, I had to put Jenny Humphrey and Cindy Who together. I didn't know that was the same girl. Cindy and Jenny are both iconic characters for fans of hers. I wish she gave some inside scoop on her time on GG. I won't hold my breath though, she sometimes alludes to hating her time on GG, I just wonder why.
Probably because the movie had a positive message to it. Despite the pressure isnt the most healthy thing to do to a child. I have heard worse fate of child actors, take Dana Plato. I mean its legit sad if you look up her past of child actor and how she ended up.
She wanted to move on when she was a teenager - what teen doesn’t want to move on from their childhood selves, and a 20-something wanting to move on from their teen years? She’s almost 30 now
I feel like she’s at peace with the film. I think there was a time when she didn’t like to acknowledge it or that it caused her a little pain, BUT now I think she can look back at it with pride. AND I hope she gets big fat royalty checks from this film.
Taylor Momsen has done so well for herself. You see way too many child stars going off the rails and becoming cautionary tales, but she is *on the ball* man. Now she's a badass rockstar and a great role model.
5:38 “I still got a lot of Cindy Lou Who in me” And I think that Cindy Lou Who that she still has in her is that positive message of inclusion, giving everyone a chance to be a part of the crowd, being kind to others, and realizing there are more important things outside of material possessions.
I love that despite her image as a musician, she still acknowledges that she will always be a part of a movie that is so close to so many people. And she owns it. What a woman.
If they ever do a sequel to this they should say "Cindy finally grew into her nose" or something along the lines of that. I really love this move my family watches it every year and it was the only Christmas movie I ever saw in theaters
huge fan of TPR, but also that movie and the original cartoon are both classics, in my book and I make a goal to watch both every year. I remember back when Taylor first came out with the album Light Me Up with her band The Pretty Reckless, I thought it was so kool she grew up to be a rock star. not only that, but they're awesomely good at what they do and the music they put out into the world. can't wait for the new album. 🖤🤘💜
I hope that Taylor can truly appreciate her film fans as much as her music fans. While the band is incredible, the character touched a far bigger range. A huge talent, both as child actor and adult singer.
Does anybody notice she seems to be wearing the same type of shirt and necklace she wears in this other interview she did for the Grinch in 2000? Look it up you’ll see it right on the thumbnail.
I can't imagine working at 7, but hey at least you had Opie as a director. He was on the Andy Taylor show when he was 6. And yeah you still have a little Cindy Lou Who in you. Say that three times fast... lol
I love her music! I hope she is doing well! So sorry to hear about the loss and such. Just glad you love doing what you do. I think in general, hobbies or anything that makes you happy i think its the greatest remedy for anything. I appreciate the life she gives in music though!
Hard to believe we are the same age. I remember seeing this in theaters back in the day. So nostalgic and timeless of a movie. I miss the early early 2000s and 90s
Loved both you and Jim in that movie and of course Ron from happy days. Did great in that movie. Where are you Christmas one of my favorite songs. And I still enjoy the movie years later.
Man, she opened for Shinedown a few weeks ago at Nashville. I’d never heard of her band, so I was looking it up, and couldn’t believe it when I realized who she was.
I was surprised when I saw the first pretty reckless concert to learn that the singer who is the main girl in the grinch but that was amazing information
Taylor , I’ve been a fan of you since you’ve done the Grinch then Gossip Girl until you’ve left to make music and then I fell in love with your band 🖤🖤🖤 my tenth grade teacher always called me cyndi Lou haha love you !!
I'm glad they didn't put prosthetics on her, she was able to display much more emotion and at such a young age she did a fantastic job. Can't believe Im watching it with my own daughters now and they love the Grinch and Cindy Lou.
Until iI saw this, I did not know she was that little girl in Grinch. I did know she was in Gossip Girl, just from reading about it from that too, GG wasn't my type of fare. But seeing her then and now photos, I see it, like looking at old family photos of your folks/aunt/uncles and going wow, look I see some of you then in you now.

i feel the grinchs .. pain. single 13 years..
I hope she comes out with a new version of "Where are you Christmas?" it would be so cool to hear with her vocals now!
I always wanted her to re-record the song with. faith Hill who also did a version of the song for the official soundtrack.
I’ve been hoping for that for years now. It would be great!
I’ve been wanting her to do you’re a mean one Mr. Grinch too.

She is a very talented singer. So happy for her!

Whenever Cindy Lou says "I just wanted everybody to be together for Christmas" makes me tear up every time.
I think the part where she said "Nobody should be alone around Christmas" was pretty heartwarming moment when she went to see The Grinch
When I tell people Cindy Lou Who has a rocking band their mouths driop.
Why are people always so shocked by that? It makes no sense, lol
@@StarFire-fk9jr because they Dont know??
I think it’s what happens when good girls have gone... bad.

I kinda wanna hear Taylor come back and sing a rock/metal version of Where Are You Christmas.
She should do a remake of ''where are you christmas?'' now, my heart would melt so hard!
Best version of Grinch. Hands down.
I think everybody will Agree you on that one 😁

I like them all to be honest. My 3.5 year old likes the 1966 cartoon best though, but she has seen them all.
Being part of such an iconic movie and now being part of such an iconic band, she is a legend, her vocals are amazing.
WHAT SHES IN A BAND WHATS IT CALLED???
@@user-qhrwbdt22 the pretty reckless
@@mrwertyuiop459 thank you sm!!

She’s nearly 30 - not 17 anymore
we all been there....
Same with kristen stewart she was really shy in interviews. But current ones she is alot more chill and her personality comes out

That was really cool. I don't think I've ever heard her talk this much about that movie since she's been in TPR (10 years)
tpr?
@@apecentury228 Her band The Pretty Reckless. They’re great, you should check them out!
@@kurlykpopfan8111 yeah I have, not a big fan, but she's cool!
She actually seemed so happy talking about it. I thought she would be upset, I guess...
Oh, wow, SHE smiled at least twice, now you've seen everything!
she actually smiles a lot lol
@@HelloXrancidkitteh i've watched only music videos of her, this is my first interview, so that's why i'm slightly surprised

She never really had a say in being an actor
Her parents pushed her into it
That’s probably why she was negative about it for so long

Can't believe it's been 20 Year's since How The Grinch Stole Christmas 😱, And Now Cindy is literally Now a Musician 😱
She would be an amazing live action Elsa from Frozen
She will never get away from this movie 😂😂
5:38 “I still got a lot of Cindy Lou Who in me”
And I think that Cindy Lou Who that she still has in her is that positive message of inclusion, giving everyone a chance to be a part of the crowd, being kind to others, and realizing there are more important things outside of material possessions.
I love Taylor Momsen 💗
I heard 25 and it is an awesome song can't wait to hear the rest of the record.
Oh great! As if I didn’t love Taylor enough, now I’ve got this to remind me what an intelligent, beautiful woman she is! 💙
Her smile is too cute 🥺
yes, this movie is a classic. rewatched this on christmas eve 2020. Merry Christmas Taylor
I know this will never going to happen but i would love to see a sequel with her and jim Carey 🎄🎆🎄
I love that despite her image as a musician, she still acknowledges that she will always be a part of a movie that is so close to so many people. And she owns it. What a woman.

the grinch is definetly a classic now
I didn't know she was in that. I only know her from The Pretty Reckless. I'm so looking forward to album number 4 a/k/a/ Death By Rock & Roll.
Love this movie. And I love her too; she's a sweetie. Thanks for posting! :)
I hope that Taylor can truly appreciate her film fans as much as her music fans. While the band is incredible, the character touched a far bigger range. A huge talent, both as child actor and adult singer.

* Andy Griffith show for Opie.
@@mattstorey7256 Right, Andy Griffith show... he played Sheriff Andy Taylor, my bad.
I love this movie and I love Taylors current music. It's so lovely to hear that she has good memories.
Really fun seeing Taylor remember her time there :)
I think they both are alike in many ways:
- questioning the status quo
- seeking truth
These being the main 2!
I’m curious if the reason Ron Howard was so good with her is that he understood about being a child actor himself.
Probably
Absolutely incredible vocalist. Her history in showbiz is amazing, but that voice... stands on its own as far as the eye can see.
I love her music! I hope she is doing well! So sorry to hear about the loss and such. Just glad you love doing what you do. I think in general, hobbies or anything that makes you happy i think its the greatest remedy for anything. I appreciate the life she gives in music though!
you should record a new version of "Where Are You Christmas" with The Pretty Reckless
Simply loved her as Cindy Lou Who. She is the best version of the character in my opinion. Really brought her to life.
Hard to believe we are the same age. I remember seeing this in theaters back in the day. So nostalgic and timeless of a movie. I miss the early early 2000s and 90s
The best version of The Grinch hands down
Loved both you and Jim in that movie and of course Ron from happy days. Did great in that movie. Where are you Christmas one of my favorite songs. And I still enjoy the movie years later.
My favorite Christmas film EVER!
Pre-ordered the album! 😁
So talented then, still talented today. Love you so much and I’m so glad that you found what you wanted to do as soon as you got into the studio
Very cute movie.
It's definitely a Classic now! I love this film xx
New album 12 february 2021...the new songs are awesome!! They're a guarantee..
I was “Brittney Lou-Who” in a church play of The Grinch!!
Man, she opened for Shinedown a few weeks ago at Nashville. I’d never heard of her band, so I was looking it up, and couldn’t believe it when I realized who she was.
Cindy Lou wasn’t the only one who was too young to wear the prosthetics but young Grinch’s classmates including Martha May Whovier and August May Who
I love you Taylor!!!!💚💚💚
Anyone else feel old watching Cindy Lou Who all grown up like this?
Cool interview, was a reflection of a great start, came a long way if you want to Rock n Roll, oops that's AC/ DC.
Dakota Fanning was terrific in Runaways but the role of Cherie should have gone to Taylor.
Merry Christmas
She still has the Cindy smile.
i want the pretty reckless to make a cover of where are you christmas
I was surprised when I saw the first pretty reckless concert to learn that the singer who is the main girl in the grinch but that was amazing information

Ann Taylor definitely is a great singer
I really like Taylor/ Cindy Lu. You ROCK

She is cool
Taylor is the best

The noses of the Whos creeped me out as a kid
How Taylor stole my heart by being hot and cool.
Hello, I haven't seen the movie, but I'll see! I think you are a good singer and you have a lot of potential. I really like your songs. Good luck.
I love Taylor Momsen Where are you Chrismas
