Taylor Momsen Quits Acting: Good News or Bad News for Hollywood?

It looks like Little Miss Rebellious got tired of waiting for "Gossip Girl" to call her back. Or maybe she suddenly realized there would be consequences to her actions.

Whatever the case, Taylor Momsen says she's out of the acting game for good.

She told the latest issue of Elle, "I quit acting, actually. I quit 'Gossip Girl' and now tour and am in a band and that's pretty much all I want to do. Hopefully I'll be able to only do that for the rest of my life."

Well, that isn't exactly telling the whole story. She only "quit" "Gossip Girl" after they put her on an indefinite hiatus because she had been acting like such a little snot backstage they just didn't want to deal with it.

Music sounds like the perfect career for her.

Her band, the aptly titled Pretty Reckless, will be touring with Evanescence this fall, so at least Momsen has that going for her, for the time being.

She said, "We're on tour forever! So that's really exciting. That's for the next couple of months, so we're pretty much on the road until at least 2012. And then it will continue!"

To be honest, if it weren't for her general lack of talent and creativity, we would be interested in watching her music career blossom. If there's one place you can get away with acting like a complete reprobate, it's music.

But we have a feeling that Momsen will be knocking on Hollywood's door again pretty soon.

    that is cruel. she may be all the bad things everyone is saying, but if she hasn't murdered anyone, she has a right to life.

    Ever heard of sarcasm?

    That being said, I doubt anyone would miss her.

    Again, sarcasm...

    Wishing someone dead is not sarcasm. I never believed words could hurt, until someone on a blog like this one said I "should not be alive and be so stupid." Incredibly, I really had a hard time getting over that, that someone would wish me dead or unborn, because I did not agree with a petty little idea they had. I am nearly 60 and was quite taken aback that I felt hurt over the ignorant little rant. Since that time, I have tried to monitor my own vitriol against others, so that I do not lower myself into the cesspool that most people thrive on. Not sarcasm, just plain ole honesty. Also, I have never heard of this girl, her tv show or her band. I wish her well.

    Whatever makes her happy. I had to look her up to see who she was. It looks like she really wants to be a "musician" over an actor. but whatevs.

    Now if she would just quit EVERYTHING spotlight wise and disappear to the corner of the street she clearly belongs on. Ugh.

    I DO think she has a good voice, but she's just too disgusting looking. Take off that whorish getup/makeup and she'd probably be awesome.

    A Hollywood agent got a hold of her. How many young girls have to be turned into trash before people will realize that Hollywood is BAD!. Or at least - not "kid friendly"
