Taylor appeared on “This Morning” today in London. You can watch the interview here… unfortunately the video is avalaible to be viewed within the UK. I’ll try to get it to youtube.

Actress Taylor Momsen turns to her true passion, singing, with her latest venture.

To millions of fans all over the world, Taylor Momsen is immediately recognisable as Jenny Humphrey, the rebellious, grungy, teenager who has trouble fitting in with her friends in the hit ITV2 series Gossip Girl.

But although Taylor, 16, has achieved fabulous success as an actress, her real passion is writing and performing music.

Taylor joins us to talk about her new single Make Me Wanna Die with rock band The Pretty Reckless.

* Make Me Wanna Die is released on Monday 17th May. And you can catch Gossip Girl Wednesdays at 8pm on ITV2.

‘It’s not a concept record, unless you consider life a concept,’ she tells MTV News of yet-untitled LP.

EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey — Taylor Momsen is quickly learning that making the transition from TV star to snarling rock princess isn’t as easy as she’d imagined.

In addition to having to win over fickle audiences on this summer’s Warped Tour — the type of crowds that don’t exactly take kindly to “actor-slash-musicians” — and make it clear to “Gossip Girl” fans that her band, the Pretty Reckless, isn’t just another cookie-cutter pop project, she’s already having to undo the damage from a quote she gave last month to Entertainment Weekly, in which she stated: “I don’t wanna be Courtney Love — I wanna be Kurt Cobain.” It hasn’t exactly been smooth sailing, to be honest.

So really, at this point, all she wants to do is get the Pretty Reckless’ debut album in stores — and then, well, she’ll just let the chips fall where they may.

“I want the record out so people can hear it. I’m not a pop artist. It’s absolutely a rock record, and I get that people probably aren’t expecting that, but, buy the record and check it out,” Momsen told MTV News on Saturday at the Bamboozle festival. “If you like loud music, you’ll like it. Hopefully. It’s very loud. If you’re not scared of guitars screaming at you and a 16-year-old girl yelling at you, then you’ll like the record.”

According to Momsen, the yet-untitled album (which she co-wrote with Pretty Reckless guitarist Ben Phillips) will finally see the light of day “sometime this summer.” And, to be quite honest, that date can’t come soon enough — because she really wants to stop talking about what it will sound like and let the songs speak for themselves.
