Gossip Teen

Taylor Momsen had a sixteenth birthday party this week, at Maritime Hotel’s Hiro Ballroom in New York City and performed with her band, Pretty Reckless. Her ‘Gossip Girl’ co-stars, Jessica Szohr and Ed Westwick, were on hand helping her celebrate and squelched the rumors that they are no longer together.

Earlier this week, it was announced Taylor landed the September Teen Vogue Cover. See her pictures here. Always love Momsen! She has great style.

Taylor Momsen is making her debut as the cover model for Teen Vogue’s September 2009 issue. The Gossip Girl actress is also lead singer in her new band Pretty Reckless, and talks about her new rock-n-roll look.

“I had long, pretty hair, and it didn’t fit me. I’m pretty, but I’m not, like, a “pretty girl.” So I pulled up a bunch of photos of Joan Jett and said, “Do that to my hair.” There was a distinct change in my wardrobe, too, and I know people were a little, um, taken aback. But it wasn’t me that changed—it was just that I decided to start being myself. Now I do my own makeup, my own hair, and dress myself, and it feels better.”

These pics were taken by world famous photographer Patrick Demarchlier and she looks gorgeous. Can’t wait for the issue.
