+7munkee Yea they seemed to have no interest in her at all other than keeping her in the shade/treating her like a troubled child.. No in depth ?s about just her intelligence (grad HS) or her many career paths. Just her choice of clothes that they obviously don't approve of or almost talking to her like they're parents telling her to atop being a rebellious tramp.. reallly annoyed me
+7munkee I dont know,I mean I graduated school that age aswell.It depends on the career you was in and I personally dont beleive that education is the end all and be all of life.As long as you know maths,english and the other basic stuff then thats all there is to it.
Laura Bourne Oh of course,I mean being young and being able to graduate is a big thing but then again I know quite a lot of people who have at that age including me.I thought everyone sort of knew that alot of people did it all over the world lol
I like her in The Grinch, I like her in Gossip Girl, and I like her as the Lead Singer of the Pretty Reckless. For me, she didn't become a bad girl, because I think her personality speaks for itself, that she is a lovely girl.
Those two are finished now from This Morning, thank goodness. Phil's career is totally gone thank Gawd, horrid man. Bullies together those 2. Could never understand their appeal; untrustworthy, narcissist back stabbers suck.
Why is it that just because she has her own style, people feel the need to rip into her? I'm not even that big of a fan, but I appreciate that she can dress how she wants, as can anyone else. People really need to get a life.
Why? because many famous people sold themselves... Take Avril Lavigne for instance, she used to be punk and now shes just... I have no words to put it... Tasteless? Is that it? Anyway, she just became exactly like everyone else. People hate different....
There's a difference between judging to yourself and spending your time going on about it online. Why not spread the love people? Judging, in my opinion, is more about society than 'human nature'.
***** I'm pretty sure judging can be done in many ways/use so I don't know where you are going with that lol, and when you said " there's a difference between judging to yourself" didn't make any sense when clearly no one haven't not even me, plus I never said I hated her or anything , just pointed out the fact that we judge BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN
In this industry when you're a child Star you have to grow up extremely fast you don't have a childhood and your parents use you for money and most cases push you into this industry
The interviewers are so horrible to her. Every time she tries to actually talk about something in-depth they cut her off and ripped into her. And not to mention the last question!
Emma Candon They are normal morning interview questions.. She was boring, awkward and plus she was sick at the time so she was probably partly grumpy or dull because she didn't feel well. And loads pf actors/actresses are asked "whats it like kissing........." and they laugh and joke about it and have a laugh, or wink or something. Whereas taylor sat there looking annoyed and grumpy and glared at them repeating "its a job" like seriously, live a little, have a bit of fun, joke around /:
sarah smiles The questions were boring. They're normal questions, that's why she was bored with them, she's had to answer them a million times before. And that kissing question is so stupid, no one cares.
The ending was a bit awkward. Asking her about the kiss with Chase. She clearly wasn't cool with them asking it. She's smart and well spoken. Got a feeling she's a girl with a mind of her own. Not easy to break in this industry.
Sometimes I just really hate the falsity of interview shows like this. It's so clear Taylor is trying to be honest with her answers, and to a certain degree I think she is truly craving some honesty in the media industry which is why she loves writing music and singing so much--it gives her that outlet. My heart breaks because she clearly has so much to give and she wants people to let her be honest and all the interviewers want are nice, quick, "cuss-free" answers. It's the way the machine works, which sucks for her because she wants so much more.
The reason it has to be "cuss-free" is because a lot (if not all) of Europe has a ban on things like swearing and certain "non-PG" stuff before 9/10 o'clock at night. It's so young kids don't end up watching porn instead of Barney by accident! (Bit extreme but you know what I mean)
Taylor is perfect. Like she is my biggest inspiration. I just love her so much. She doesn't deserve the hate. She's her own person. How can you not respect that?
Wow... Graduating high school at age 14, juggling 3 careers, writing music, touring, acting, doing interviews, all without seeming to break a sweat about it...I am really in awe. What have I been doing all this time? I'm happy that she's able to be comfortable with herself and ignore the haters. They really have no leg to stand on when they try to criticize this amazing girl. :)
Im English and this is the perfect reason why I don't watch this morning interviews if im not at work they have no interview skills and its like she's in front of 2 judge's
Hmm yeh I have to agree, I don't watch this morning but Holly n Phil are always praised for their interviewing skills and I felt that they were just frowning in her direction the entire interview! It was like they were condemning her for having a job lol she was very polite and answered the questions well; she seemed very self assured. The fact they kept saying 'for your age' all the time seemed a bit condescending and she seemed to cotton onto it but continued to answer honestly. She also seemed nervous, perhaps that was because of the pure judgment coming from those 2! didn't seem to like the question at the end, probably because it was fucking ridiculous and just didn't add anything to the interview!! :)
Most interview/chat shows seem to be the same, the interviewer always has an agenda and makes the programme about themselves, not the guest. The only exception I have seen was Craig Ferguson. Completely different and Taylor would have got on with him like a house on fire. Sadly he has moved on.
It's really weird seeing interviews from when she was younger and comparing them to more recent ones. In this one, she seemed so uncomfortable and even when the interviewers where being horrible, she just kind of sat there and took it but in more recent ones, if any of the interviewers try anything, she won't take their bull. It's kind of cool to see how different she is now and how far she's come.
You can literally see the annoyance in her facial expressions increasing as the interview went on. I mean, it was subtle and she was very professional throughout but there were many moments where you can swear she was thinking, "Come on, seriously?" Kudos to her for making it through this awful interview, really.
I usually enjoy Phillip's interviews but this was nasty. After hearing her song "There you go, that's what it is"... really? Even if it's not your cup of tea, you find something positive to say about it. It's not my taste, but what a great voice she has - so much expression and depth.
There's so much on the internet about Taylor Momsen comparing photos of when she was Cindy Lou in the Grinch and what she looks like now being like "what happened?!" It genuinely upsets me that there is so much pressure on women to either be cute and passive or be completely sexualised to the point of practically imitating pornography, I think fair play to her for going against the grain and doing something slightly different with her appearance. Obviously she is still sexualised in her music videos and the characters she plays but at least theres some sense of ownership about it. Keep doing what you're doing Taylor!
People don't realise this, but she's worked so hard to be where she stands right now. I have so much respect for her and for her determination to do things the way she wants to do them.
"dressing quite provocatively as a sixteen year old" i love how people are always sexualising women. Its a body, everyone has one, like being anyway feminine or just breathing is provocative
She's so mature & smart for her age, that was a really good interview. I love her attitude and the fact that she puts so much work into her careers, especially her love for music. She's gonna be big on the music scene in no time!
They look at her with scorn, just because she is considered as a "provocative" girl. They're so rude and ridiculous, I hate this. Taylor is way more intelligent than them, that's depressing to see people like that.
They're not allowed to have a pretty girl on who's both provocative and intelligent, it doesn't fit the media image. so they try to bring her down and just keep her as provocative and try to make her seem "young and dumb". Taylor is without question intelligent and much smarter than she lets on. But these two hosts don't like to admit that, they'd much rather pigeonhole her so as to please their investors. .
One of a few humans I would love to just go out for lunch with and just chat. A gifted and sane being in an insane world. Many years on the work of Taylor, Ben and the band speaks for its self. A rollercoaster at times it has of course been.... but thankyou for taking this path , so much beauty in your art...
I really like her! I don't get why Holly & Phil were being kind of........dismissive? I can't even find the word to describe it but it just feels rude, they're never usually like this :/
Exactly! Usually of what I've seen on This Morning, Holly and Phil are great interviews but they came across really rude in this video, Phil kept butting in when she was in the middle of speaking😕😕☹️.
They treated her like an ordinary little teenager! Sadly, for them, they completely overlooked what all she had accomplished at 16! More than most ever do in their entire lives! She comes off as a very intelligent and eloquent young woman at the age of 16 as well. Answering those inane questions would be fun, huh? They didn't appear that interested in anything beyond the same National Enquirer type questions she faces all the time. She handled it better than I would!
The media agenda my friend is, "hot and intelligent girls do not exist". Can't have that. They wanted to just paint her as "young and dumb" which is why they kept calling her provocative.
man, i am so impressed with this girl. there are celebreties in their thirtees who have big trouble giving a half-decent interview (Scarlett johannson for example, bless her for everything else she does is awesome), but taylor seems so comfortable and natural here, not at all trying to pull off a show, just having a casual conversation.
I absolutely love how she stays so true to herself with all of the questions of how she dresses at such a young age (even though this was a few years ago). She's so true and really promotes being comfortable with yourself and not really letting what other people think get in the way, and I absolutely love that about her haha
Jesus is this an interview or an interrogation? This is ridiculous. Go Taylor for doing her own thing and not giving a shit, no matter how many times they interrupt her. And yes, she said shit. Deal.
+certain-catastrophe yeah it's not a big deal that she said shit, but it is worth knowing that under British law, the presenters legally had to apologise for it. This came to a head recently because sports fans here were complaining that broadcasters apologised every time a swearword was picked up on a mic, and the broadcasters pointed out that they legally have to apologise for any swearword broadcast before the 9pm watershed.
I absolutely love the way you handled these people, everything they threw at you, you just gave it right back to them, or fully stopped them in their tracks 😂😂 Everytime you did, it was funny watching them feel the inertia. They finally met a cactus they couldn't drain. That was inspiring as fuck!!
I remember seeing and meeting her at warped. She's one of the most talented musicians I have ever heard and she's incredibly sweet to her fans in person. She says how she doesn't look to be a role model, and that's fine but I really do look to her as a role model!
I find it so annoying how rude the interviewers are. I get that they have a limited period of time to ask questions, but they barely give her time to answer.
It's the fucking uk we barely get amazing people like Taylor here so they need to get used to it so go and get a good job like Holly's or Philips. We have a limited amount of time to get a show done. Also Philip (the male) is very impatient so go and do some reasearch
I could honestly not give less of a fuck. "Phillip" needs to grow a pair and stop being fucking disrespectful. What're you like 12? Do yourself a favor and "research" how to purchase a dictionary. Obviously you need it.
Roseh I honestly could not care less what you have to say. You're not making yourself sound more intelligent by arguing. Run along now, it's past your bedtime.
She was great?? She was actually so amazing in this interview, despite having food poisoning she answered all of the questions really well and meticulously, and she came off very passionate and intellectual, and if I dare say, a lot more professional than these two interviewers despite being only sixteen. She is young and she has achieved so much, they shouldn't be looking down on her because of that fact, she deserved a little more respect, and I say again, she turned up to this interview whilst she had FOOD POISONING. That is very brave of her as she probably felt like utter shit the whole time, yet answered all the questions truthfully and fully. I personally love her music and will continue to support her!! 💜💜
This interview was so uncomfortable and they were seriously dicks to her. If they don't approve of her career then why did they interview her? To be condescending? They barely even let her answer the questions, too.
Taylor is a beautiful talented girl with a thriving career ahead of her. People don't seem to be able to see past her looks. Which leaves very little hope for the next generation. I may only be 15 but I'm a massive fan of hers and the style she sports. The people who feel the need to try and pull her down are judgemental and rude. Just like the hosts.
I didn't like the way that they treated her. Yes, she lives differently than they do but that doesn't mean that they can be so rude to her. If you invite someone on to your show then be at least somewhat respectable. All the interruptions and derogatory statements just made me upset, but Taylor did a great job always being well articulate and respectful when she was able to talk. And so what if she said shit, big deal, everyone has. I know that British show hosts are known to be rude and "snobby" as some might say, but this is just disrespectful. I've seen interviews when the host obviously didn't like the person being interviewed, but he/she tried not to make it obvious, they professionally asked their questions, let them answer, and so forth. This is why I don't like these kind of shows. Go movies!! 😂
Even though she's young enough to be my daughter, she's nonetheless gorgeous to look at. Real eye candy. Her eye-make-up makes her look stylish and interesting, (despite those people that don't like it.) I'm old enough to remember punk styles, which many people had difficulty accepting. She'll probably still be stunning 30 years from now.
everyone on here is all either hating on taylor or the interviewers or making some rude ass comment, AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS WOMAN IS FUCKING GORGEOUS. and just perfect in every way?! like forget how "mad" she looks or what TV shows she's been on. the point is that she's an awesome human being. she has every ounce of my respect. you people are crazy if you can't acknowledge her beauty.
I don't think they were rude at all. People are just jumping on the bandwagon excusing the fact that she was being rude to them. They "cut her off" that's their normal interviewing style, it's just to keep the conversation rolling and let's face it, Taylor looked as if she didn't want to be there.
she handles her answers very well, she has good vocabulary not like other teen artist she doesnt answer short and says "like" alot she does really good in interviews
I remember when I was her age watching the grinch when it first came out. Hard to believe we are the same age and watching her at 16. So many years have flown by.
i feel like they looked at her with such judgement, they also kept speaking over her. Elders will always look at "rebellious" teens as troubled, they didn't even give genuine attention to the fact she graduated highschool at 14 and how smart she probably must have been. She is and was a lovely girl and they completely judged her for the way she presented herself to the world.
A lot of people may comment on her appearance and how she carries herself, but she really does seem like a true individual. She's one of a kind and the fact that everyone is so hung up on her looks means that she's just really original. Rock on \m/
Kudos to Ms. Momsen--she had more poise, professionalism and intelligence at 16 than 80% of the adults I know. I'd say she's not only talented but brilliant.
They always interrupt people because they only have a certain amount of time until the breaks/other interviews but yes it is very annoying and i can't watch it because Philip is just so patronizing!! Love Taylor Momsen, she's gorgeous.
wow. she's awesome o_o i've never really payed any attention to her before but she actually seems pretty cool, even though this was like 4 years ago xD. i'm 16 and it's true, she was a lot more mature here than most 16 year olds :) including myself haha
I don't understand how people are finding the interviewers rude. I'm from Britain and can say that this is a very standard interview. They asked her questions about her career and life so that the audience get to know her better - which is the whole point of being interviewed! American interviews will be different to British interviews because the target audience are different. Also, we may say things or word things how Americans don't. These interviewers are lovely people who were just doing their job and in no way did it in a rude or condescending manor (although it was a bit annoying how he kept interrupting her, but he was only doing it to hurry her along because they only have a certain amount of time to conduct the interview.) I hope you'll actually consider these points before you agree with the other comments.
+heykatiematey No, they really were just rude. Like how they didn't even have anything positive to say about her music video. How they blatantly asked her a question at the end that she clearly didn't want to talk about. How they had a very judgmental way of talking to her. Also why would they apologise for one swear word? Is this show really going to be viewed by kids so young they don't know swear words? Because when I was 12 me and my friends were swearing.
+Zenith Wills I'm pretty sure that the presenters in this wouldn't be listening to music like hers (I mean have you noticed the age gap?) so I'm guessing that they would have felt a little awkward when shown a song singing about how much she wants to die when she's sitting right in front of them. The question at the end was clearly a cheeky question that a lot of Gossip Girl fans would want to hear the answer to (which they actually mentioned before asking her). It wasn't a totally serious question that was meant to make her laugh, she and a lot of the foreign viewers obviously didn't understand the humour and took it the wrong way, anyway they moved on when they realised that she wan't comfortable in answering the question. They weren't being judgmental, they only seemed interested to me. And they have to apologise for swearing because it's against the law to swear on television that's before 9pm, the show would have gotten into huge trouble if they hadn't have apologised. It's against the law because children could over hear the show if they aren't watching it and also even some adults, particularly older people can get very offended and uncomfortable when hearing swear words. I hope this helps :)
I can't believe she was only 16 in this interview. She's so mature and well-spoken for her age.
They just totally ignored that she had finished high school at 14. I find that very worthy of discussing in an interview.
+7munkee Yea they seemed to have no interest in her at all other than keeping her in the shade/treating her like a troubled child.. No in depth ?s about just her intelligence (grad HS) or her many career paths. Just her choice of clothes that they obviously don't approve of or almost talking to her like they're parents telling her to atop being a rebellious tramp.. reallly annoyed me
+7munkee I dont know,I mean I graduated school that age aswell.It depends on the career you was in and I personally dont beleive that education is the end all and be all of life.As long as you know maths,english and the other basic stuff then thats all there is to it.
Lily Morris I agree it isnt the end all but it is a serious accomplishment and worth talking about
Laura Bourne Oh of course,I mean being young and being able to graduate is a big thing but then again I know quite a lot of people who have at that age including me.I thought everyone sort of knew that alot of people did it all over the world lol
+Laura Bou
rne
Her talking voice and singing voice have such a difference..
it goes from girly to sexy and rock
Not at all. I don't see why you think so.
Art is art.
She is an artist. Today she is 31. Her work is for her and she is happier than we are
I like her in The Grinch, I like her in Gossip Girl, and I like her as the Lead Singer of the Pretty Reckless. For me, she didn't become a bad girl, because I think her personality speaks for itself, that she is a lovely girl.
Yes I think so too :)
She was in the grinch? Who was she? Oh- oh my SHE WAS CINDY LOU!? Omg I-
Perfectly worded.
She was nice and respectful and they were just so rude...
Those two are finished now from This Morning, thank goodness. Phil's career is totally gone thank Gawd, horrid man. Bullies together those 2. Could never understand their appeal; untrustworthy, narcissist back stabbers suck.
Why is it that just because she has her own style, people feel the need to rip into her? I'm not even that big of a fan, but I appreciate that she can dress how she wants, as can anyone else. People really need to get a life.
Why? because many famous people sold themselves... Take Avril Lavigne for instance, she used to be punk and now shes just... I have no words to put it... Tasteless? Is that it? Anyway, she just became exactly like everyone else.
People hate different....
We can judge if we want to....bruh it's in our human nature
There's a difference between judging to yourself and spending your time going on about it online. Why not spread the love people? Judging, in my opinion, is more about society than 'human nature'.
***** I'm pretty sure judging can be done in many ways/use so I don't know where you are going with that lol, and when you said " there's a difference between judging to yourself" didn't make any sense when clearly no one haven't not even me, plus I never said I hated her or anything , just pointed out the fact that we judge BECAUSE WE ARE HUMAN
"judging to yourself"... like "talking to yourself" - keeping your judgements to yourself
She's more sensible and mature than literally every sixteen year old girl I know
In this industry when you're a child Star you have to grow up extremely fast you don't have a childhood and your parents use you for money and most cases push you into this industry
The interviewers are so horrible to her. Every time she tries to actually talk about something in-depth they cut her off and ripped into her. And not to mention the last question!
taylor really looks like she doesn't want to be there
She most probably felt out of place and what with the dumbass questions they were asking her
Emma Candon well what do you want them to ask her, she's not that interesting
Emma Candon They are normal morning interview questions.. She was boring, awkward and plus she was sick at the time so she was probably partly grumpy or dull because she didn't feel well. And loads pf actors/actresses are asked "whats it like kissing........." and they laugh and joke about it and have a laugh, or wink or something.

sarah smiles The questions were boring. They're normal questions, that's why she was bored with them, she's had to answer them a million times before. And that kissing question is so stupid, no one cares.
Emma Candon Felt out of place, having to spin her media story abroad, alone, to two realistic people - and was unsure that they were buying it. =)
They didn't deserve to have her on their show. They were such snobs!
rude
The ending was a bit awkward. Asking her about the kiss with Chase. She clearly wasn't cool with them asking it. She's smart and well spoken. Got a feeling she's a girl with a mind of her own. Not easy to break in this industry.
Agreed
Sometimes I just really hate the falsity of interview shows like this.

wow for 16 in this vid she handled herself extremely well, very impressed.
they interrupt her so much, so disrespectful
Taylor is perfect. Like she is my biggest inspiration. I just love her so much. She doesn't deserve the hate. She's her own person. How can you not respect that?
Wow... Graduating high school at age 14, juggling 3 careers, writing music, touring, acting, doing interviews, all without seeming to break a sweat about it...I am really in awe. What have I been doing all this time? I'm happy that she's able to be comfortable with herself and ignore the haters. They really have no leg to stand on when they try to criticize this amazing girl. :)
She graduated early because child stars usually do because they get tutored one on one.
She was so sweet.. why were the interviewers a little pushy..
this is this morning its there job there not being pushy what so ever there asking things
Those 2 were bullies. Thank goodness they're off the show now
You can see it on Taylor's face how annoyed she was with the interviewers
Don't blame her. Those 2 were mor*ns.
She is just working
Im English and this is the perfect reason why I don't watch this morning interviews if im not at work they have no interview skills and its like she's in front of 2 judge's
Hmm yeh I have to agree, I don't watch this morning but Holly n Phil are always praised for their interviewing skills and I felt that they were just frowning in her direction the entire interview!

HA! She swore on This Morning! Philip fucking shat himself there hahaha
They're more interested in asking the questions than hearing her answer
It's really weird seeing interviews from when she was younger and comparing them to more recent ones. In this one, she seemed so uncomfortable and even when the interviewers where being horrible, she just kind of sat there and took it but in more recent ones, if any of the interviewers try anything, she won't take their bull. It's kind of cool to see how different she is now and how far she's come.
I just don't like the way they look at her.
Like,becuase she's not a crazy horse,and is dark and serious,she's a bad seed....Besides,she's a swell,swollen scorpioness..could lay some eggs...
Stef Addams lol how they looked at her?
Abbas Afshar as if she was a freak.
oh, they were just asking questions I believe. :D
Abbas Afshar but every person who is "dark" is misunderstood and mistreated don't you know?
You can literally see the annoyance in her facial expressions increasing as the interview went on. I mean, it was subtle and she was very professional throughout but there were many moments where you can swear she was thinking, "Come on, seriously?" Kudos to her for making it through this awful interview, really.
She was very mature for a 16 year old girl.

Preach🙏
Amen
"Then, Just don't give a shit, wait can I not say that?"
"No, not really but well apologise for that"
I CaNT STOP LAughING
People don't realise this, but she's worked so hard to be where she stands right now. I have so much respect for her and for her determination to do things the way she wants to do them.
"dressing quite provocatively as a sixteen year old" i love how people are always sexualising women. Its a body, everyone has one, like being anyway feminine or just breathing is provocative
i know right!! it annoys me so much that another older woman would say that to her, a 16 year old. just let her be
she was more mature than them
Carlos Ramirez I thought the same thing exactly...
They’re the most hypocritical interviewers ever they got to cocky for their own good. I was over the moon when this morning lost the award.
So accurate
She is “real” & fearless Impressive at her age. Don’t change Taylor! At the end of our lives what we regret is what we didn’t do.
She's so mature & smart for her age, that was a really good interview. I love her attitude and the fact that she puts so much work into her careers, especially her love for music. She's gonna be big on the music scene in no time!
She was so smart and level headed as a 16 year old.. I wish I could meet her.
They look at her with scorn, just because she is considered as a "provocative" girl. They're so rude and ridiculous, I hate this. Taylor is way more intelligent than them, that's depressing to see people like that.
They're not allowed to have a pretty girl on who's both provocative and intelligent, it doesn't fit the media image. so they try to bring her down and just keep her as provocative and try to make her seem "young and dumb". Taylor is without question intelligent and much smarter than she lets on. But these two hosts don't like to admit that, they'd much rather pigeonhole her so as to please their investors. .
I love her, she's gorgeous :)
Wow she’s awesome, never heard her speak before. Obviously smart, not arrogant, just doing her thing in life and kicking ass
She looks at some moments like she's going to cry. Poor taylor.
But why?
She had food poisoning. I've had it twice its horrendous
Phillip Schofied was being pretty judgemental (and an ass) !!
Taylor Momsen looked out of her comfort zone and as if she wanted to leave :/
It's because she's a self-conscious teenager
One of a few humans I would love to just go out for lunch with and just chat. A gifted and sane being in an insane world. Many years on the work of Taylor, Ben and the band speaks for its self. A rollercoaster at times it has of course been.... but thankyou for taking this path , so much beauty in your art...
I really like her! I don't get why Holly & Phil were being kind of........dismissive? I can't even find the word to describe it but it just feels rude, they're never usually like this :/

The media agenda my friend is, "hot and intelligent girls do not exist". Can't have that. They wanted to just paint her as "young and dumb" which is why they kept calling her provocative.
I love the hosts, but they were majorly pissing me off how they kept talking over Taylor!
i love her voice and her cute laugh :'3
man, i am so impressed with this girl.
there are celebreties in their thirtees who have big trouble giving a half-decent interview (Scarlett johannson for example, bless her for everything else she does is awesome), but taylor seems so comfortable and natural here, not at all trying to pull off a show, just having a casual conversation.
In disagreement? "how did music save you?" ARE YOU KIDDING
"should i dress like this when i'm 30?" HAHA go taylor :D
Can't get over that she's only 16 here!
I absolutely love how she stays so true to herself with all of the questions of how she dresses at such a young age (even though this was a few years ago). She's so true and really promotes being comfortable with yourself and not really letting what other people think get in the way, and I absolutely love that about her haha
Jesus is this an interview or an interrogation? This is ridiculous. Go Taylor for doing her own thing and not giving a shit, no matter how many times they interrupt her.
And yes, she said shit. Deal.
Your comment made me laugh haha
+certain-catastrophe yeah it's not a big deal that she said shit, but it is worth knowing that under British law, the presenters legally had to apologise for it. This came to a head recently because sports fans here were complaining that broadcasters apologised every time a swearword was picked up on a mic, and the broadcasters pointed out that they legally have to apologise for any swearword broadcast before the 9pm watershed.
I absolutely love the way you handled these people, everything they threw at you, you just gave it right back to them, or fully stopped them in their tracks 😂😂
Everytime you did, it was funny watching them feel the inertia. They finally met a cactus they couldn't drain. That was inspiring as fuck!!
she's so smart and wellspoken & let's not forget crazy beautiful, i just love her so much
they look so disgusted when they look at her..
she's so gorgeous omg
I remember seeing and meeting her at warped. She's one of the most talented musicians I have ever heard and she's incredibly sweet to her fans in person. She says how she doesn't look to be a role model, and that's fine but I really do look to her as a role model!
I find it so annoying how rude the interviewers are. I get that they have a limited period of time to ask questions, but they barely give her time to answer.
It's the fucking uk we barely get amazing people like Taylor here so they need to get used to it so go and get a good job like Holly's or Philips. We have a limited amount of time to get a show done. Also Philip (the male) is very impatient so go and do some reasearch
I could honestly not give less of a fuck. "Phillip" needs to grow a pair and stop being fucking disrespectful. What're you like 12? Do yourself a favor and "research" how to purchase a dictionary. Obviously you need it.
I wasn't being mean to Taylor all the viewers I was being mean for my own fucking country, and age doesn't matter
Roseh I honestly could not care less what you have to say. You're not making yourself sound more intelligent by arguing. Run along now, it's past your bedtime.
Okay no need to get aggressive xo xo
She's stunning. I like this girl.
I love her response on why she loves music so much
i love her, 'if your like me and you really don't give a shit.' omg. Shes amazing
LET HER FREAKING TALK! God..
God Bless her for choosing Rock and not pop
Love you Taylor
She was great?? She was actually so amazing in this interview, despite having food poisoning she answered all of the questions really well and meticulously, and she came off very passionate and intellectual, and if I dare say, a lot more professional than these two interviewers despite being only sixteen. She is young and she has achieved so much, they shouldn't be looking down on her because of that fact, she deserved a little more respect, and I say again, she turned up to this interview whilst she had FOOD POISONING. That is very brave of her as she probably felt like utter shit the whole time, yet answered all the questions truthfully and fully. I personally love her music and will continue to support her!! 💜💜
This interview was so uncomfortable and they were seriously dicks to her. If they don't approve of her career then why did they interview her? To be condescending? They barely even let her answer the questions, too.
she's very talented. they didn't even really acknowledge her music wtf
Taylor is a beautiful talented girl with a thriving career ahead of her. People don't seem to be able to see past her looks. Which leaves very little hope for the next generation. I may only be 15 but I'm a massive fan of hers and the style she sports. The people who feel the need to try and pull her down are judgemental and rude. Just like the hosts.
How condescending! She's an articulate and intelligent woman and they patronise her constantly here.
Roland Baldwin Especially Phillip. I bet she was so glad to leave that jerk
lol
Sara class is a bullshit concept.
Sara nice how women go around hating on each other lollllz, makes it twice as easy for men
+Sara Well she obviously has more class than you...
I love what she said about how she dresses, "Am I supposed to dress this way when I'm 30?"
I didn't like the way that they treated her. Yes, she lives differently than they do but that doesn't mean that they can be so rude to her. If you invite someone on to your show then be at least somewhat respectable. All the interruptions and derogatory statements just made me upset, but Taylor did a great job always being well articulate and respectful when she was able to talk. And so what if she said shit, big deal, everyone has. I know that British show hosts are known to be rude and "snobby" as some might say, but this is just disrespectful. I've seen interviews when the host obviously didn't like the person being interviewed, but he/she tried not to make it obvious, they professionally asked their questions, let them answer, and so forth. This is why I don't like these kind of shows. Go movies!! 😂
Even though she's young enough to be my daughter, she's nonetheless gorgeous to look at. Real eye candy. Her eye-make-up makes her look stylish and interesting, (despite those people that don't like it.) I'm old enough to remember punk styles, which many people had difficulty accepting. She'll probably still be stunning 30 years from now.
She's beautiful and always will be!
age has nothing to do with it beauty is beauty and she's amazingingly beautiful
lovely comment there kevin.
She's so beautiful and her voice is amazing her acting is perfect and we intelligence is brilliant
her eyeshadow is supposed to be crazy lol thats her style who cares its her face. plus those interviewers are judgemental pricks.
Her voice sounds so different than on the show :0 I love u Taylor!!!
everyone on here is all either hating on taylor or the interviewers or making some rude ass comment, AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS WOMAN IS FUCKING GORGEOUS. and just perfect in every way?! like forget how "mad" she looks or what TV shows she's been on. the point is that she's an awesome human being. she has every ounce of my respect. you people are crazy if you can't acknowledge her beauty.
I don't think they were rude at all. People are just jumping on the bandwagon excusing the fact that she was being rude to them. They "cut her off" that's their normal interviewing style, it's just to keep the conversation rolling and let's face it, Taylor looked as if she didn't want to be there.
she handles her answers very well, she has good vocabulary not like other teen artist she doesnt answer short and says "like" alot she does really good in interviews
I remember when I was her age watching the grinch when it first came out. Hard to believe we are the same age and watching her at 16. So many years have flown by.
wow she's gorgeous!!!
i feel like they looked at her with such judgement, they also kept speaking over her. Elders will always look at "rebellious" teens as troubled, they didn't even give genuine attention to the fact she graduated highschool at 14 and how smart she probably must have been. She is and was a lovely girl and they completely judged her for the way she presented herself to the world.
I like how 5 minutes into the interview they start giving her crap about how she looks
And she is one of the most gorgeous women around, even at sixteen she was beautiful.
Just not the same as the majority.
The ending was so AWKWARD lol
this could have been better if Holly and Phillip weren't so judgmental and rude....
A lot of people may comment on her appearance and how she carries herself, but she really does seem like a true individual. She's one of a kind and the fact that everyone is so hung up on her looks means that she's just really original. Rock on
\m/
She's so pretty, but she wears so much eye-shadow that it almost looks like she has sunglasses on when she closes her eyes.
it makes it really hard to see cindy-lou-who under all that eyeshadow. maybe that's what she's going for.
***** Not judging. just giving my opinion. I am allowed to have one.
M. Strain Jr.
True. And to add on the the who opinion thing; I for one find that eye-shadow to be attractive.
Warlink4 Everyone has their own tastes. Unfortunately, neither one of us will be tasting her. =)
M. Strain Jr.
Well said. I agree with you on both of your points. However, one can dream can't they?
4:17 that was like the "sorry" of an angel... Jesus her voice is more attractive than she is some how.
She’s so gorgeous
This girl is only 16 ! Got high school degree and is that far into creating good pieces of art ! Waow...
She's 21 now I think
Yeah 21/22
i freakin' love her
Kudos to Ms. Momsen--she had more poise, professionalism and intelligence at 16 than 80% of the adults I know. I'd say she's not only talented but brilliant.
I hate interviewers like that. They make me sick, just cause you don't understand someone doesn't mean you have to be look at her odd and so passive.
God they are bloody snobs! She's fucking awesome! I love her style! 🖤
Honestly, Taylor Momsen is gorgeous no matter how she looks. I'm definitely glad she is being herself. She's an idol of mine. c:
They always interrupt people because they only have a certain amount of time until the breaks/other interviews but yes it is very annoying and i can't watch it because Philip is just so patronizing!! Love Taylor Momsen, she's gorgeous.
Her eyes were so ridiculously hypnotizing. Were they contacts?? Her eyes sucked me in.
thats her real eye color, the black around her eyes is black eyeshadow haha
Lessly Reyes What?! Her eye color is, like, purple. This can't be possible. I'm done.
i’m in love this women!!!
wow. she's awesome o_o i've never really payed any attention to her before but she actually seems pretty cool, even though this was like 4 years ago xD. i'm 16 and it's true, she was a lot more mature here than most 16 year olds :) including myself haha
Why did they even have her on if they were just going to be rude and judgmental?
Wow. !!! 16....finished high school 14 ....still going today ....congrats !
I don't understand how people are finding the interviewers rude. I'm from Britain and can say that this is a very standard interview. They asked her questions about her career and life so that the audience get to know her better - which is the whole point of being interviewed! American interviews will be different to British interviews because the target audience are different. Also, we may say things or word things how Americans don't. These interviewers are lovely people who were just doing their job and in no way did it in a rude or condescending manor (although it was a bit annoying how he kept interrupting her, but he was only doing it to hurry her along because they only have a certain amount of time to conduct the interview.) I hope you'll actually consider these points before you agree with the other comments.
+heykatiematey No, they really were just rude. Like how they didn't even have anything positive to say about her music video. How they blatantly asked her a question at the end that she clearly didn't want to talk about. How they had a very judgmental way of talking to her. Also why would they apologise for one swear word? Is this show really going to be viewed by kids so young they don't know swear words? Because when I was 12 me and my friends were swearing.
+Zenith Wills I'm pretty sure that the presenters in this wouldn't be listening to music like hers (I mean have you noticed the age gap?) so I'm guessing that they would have felt a little awkward when shown a song singing about how much she wants to die when she's sitting right in front of them. The question at the end was clearly a cheeky question that a lot of Gossip Girl fans would want to hear the answer to (which they actually mentioned before asking her). It wasn't a totally serious question that was meant to make her laugh, she and a lot of the foreign viewers obviously didn't understand the humour and took it the wrong way, anyway they moved on when they realised that she wan't comfortable in answering the question. They weren't being judgmental, they only seemed interested to me. And they have to apologise for swearing because it's against the law to swear on television that's before 9pm, the show would have gotten into huge trouble if they hadn't have apologised. It's against the law because children could over hear the show if they aren't watching it and also even some adults, particularly older people can get very offended and uncomfortable when hearing swear words. I hope this helps :)
I agree
I'm only on season 2 and my jaw literally dropped when I realised it was Jenny 😨
Her eyes are beautiful c:
The Pretty Reckless is my new favorite band.
The interviewers keep interrupting her when Taylor's talking
