Taylor Momsen's obsession with fire

Gossip Girl star and singer Taylor Momsen has a thing for setting items on fire, revealed her bandmate.

“Taylor loves setting things on fire, so this is great. Taylor thinks we're some rock ‘n’ roll bada*ses. In the studio, there was this pit where the owner would burn stuff. We'd burn old keyboards, computers, stuff them full of TNT and set them on fire. Taylor loves fire,” the Pretty Reckless guitarist Ben Phillips offered, before going on to share an anecdote that futher proved the teenager’s love for setting things alight.

“I shouldn't say this. One morning, Taylor got into the studio really early - she'd just had her dog neutered and brought in the bits. Which she then burned. We were grossed out.”

Momsen might be acting like a difficult person most of the time, but don’t get her wrong, as she insisted that she is just being her age.

“I do smile when things are funny. I'm quite moody, I'm a teenager and I'm PMS-ing all the f***ing time, what do you expect? I am quite moody and I have an interesting life and I get my picture taken 24/7, and it's not always pleasurable. I am really moody, but I'm not a mean person. I'm actually nice,” said the 17-year-old in an interview with Heat magazine.

Similarly, she does not like it when people questioned her fashion choices, which was at times, described as provocative and not age-appropriate.

“I’m 17. Aren’t I supposed to be provocative? I don’t really understand what the problem is. I know I dress provocatively on stage, but it's just rock ‘n’ roll. Like, I don't really understand what the big deal is,” she ranted.
