Taylor Momsen, who played Cindy Lou Who in the movie The Grinch when she was only 7 years old, became the lead singer of a metal band, a career change that has shocked many internet users.
The 31-year-old singer completely left her Hollywood acting career to focus on music and is now the lead singer of the metal band The Pretty Reckless, which has left many internet users amazed.
“Wait. Can we go back to something? Taylor Momsen sings metal? What?”, said one social media user. “Finding out that Little J was Cindy was the most insane thing I’ve ever experienced, to be honest,” admitted another.
“I’m shocked! Cindy Lou was Little J this whole time?”, commented a third user. “Little J was the one who played Cindy Lou? I didn’t know that,” said another.
Recently, she shared the negative impacts the movie had on her life. “First of all, The Grinch changed my life in many ways – one of them is that I was relentlessly bullied,” she said on the podcast Podcrushed.
“Every time I started a new school or went somewhere else, I don’t even think the kids knew my name. I was just ‘Grinch Girl’. Not even the name of the character, just ‘Grinch Girl’. I got used to it, but it was alienating.”
