Gossip Teen

Taylor Momsen is back in tonight’s new Gossip Girl. Episode 4.10 “Gaslit” is the last episode Jenny will be in through January. Last week it was reported that Momsen has been sidelined by the show for a while. There are conflicting reports as to why – was she that much of a pain to the show or was it just because her storyline dictates her absence – but none the less, this is it for Jenny Humphrey through the January episodes at least.

Here is tonight’s official synopsis:

TATE DONOVAN DIRECTS THE EPISODE: Chuck (Ed Westwick), Serena (Blake Lively), Blair (Leighton Meester), Dan (Penn Badgley), Jenny (Taylor Momsen) and Eric (Connor Paolo) find themselves faced with a crisis when a member of one of their families is hospitalized.  Meanwhile, Nate (Chace Crawford) attempts to help his parents, The Captain (guest star Sam Robards) and Anne (guest star Francie Swift), put their complicated past behind them and reconcile.  Katie Cassidy guest stars as Juliet.  Jessica Szohr, Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle also star.

Gossip Girl’s Jenny Humphrey is taking a long leave starting in December. Taylor Momsen’s character will appear in the November 29th episode “Gaslit” and she won’t be see again for a long while as executives for the TV show are suspending Momsen.

Besides her barely-there wardrobe and expletive-laced tirades against peers such as Miley Cyrus, Momsen pissed off Project Runway‘s Tim Gunn who played mentor to ‘Jenny” in an episode that aired last month. Gunn blasted Momsen for her lack of professionalism on the set. “What a diva,” he told E! News. “She was pathetic, she couldn’t remember her lines, and she didn’t even have that many. I thought to myself, ‘Why are we being held hostage by this brat?’”

The official word is that Taylor will not be utilized (she has not been fired) for creative/storyline reasons not because she is giving everyone headaches behind the scenes. The truth is Momsen has been focused on her music with The Pretty Reckless and does not seem that interested in being an actress at all, anywhere. Whether she is a pain in the backside to producers or not – this could be the best thing for both Momsen and Ggirl.

What do you think?

Should Jenny be written off entirely? Do you think Momsen’s Little J should be recast with another actress?

New York City was host to Taylor Momsen as she kicked off the opening ceremony for Clinique and Teen Vogue Magazine’s Fresh Faces Tour.

The cosmetics company & magazine are searching for young women who want to have their make-up done by a Clinique artist and have pics taken by a professional photographer. Sweet!

The tour is hitting major cities such as Austin TX, LaJolla CA, Cleveland OH, and Tallahassee FL among others. You can find all the stops on the tour or submit your picture online by going to Clinique’s Fresh Faces site here. Good luck!

Filming a scene for Gossip Girl in New York City, actress Taylor Momsen is dressed less like her character, Jenny and more like the way she dresses for her band The Pretty Reckless. The fishnets and the biker jacket are very punk inspired and seem right at home on Momsen when she’s on stage. Although the red leather bag is totally Jenny. What do you think?
