16-year-old ‘gossip girl’ actress taylor momsen is this month’s teen vogue cover girl. that’s all well & good until you actually read the article. this little lady comes off very – well, strange. here are some highlights that might have you scratching your head.

forced into the spotlight: “i kind of grew up in front of the camera:  i started modeling when i was two. i was never pushed into it, but i never really chose it either.

don’t try to tell her she needs an education! “i found high school kind of boring i’m an artist; i’m not going to use trigonometry.”

too much, too soon: ”i’m taking college classes online — i want to major in language arts… for most people, college is a place where you learn about yourself, and i feel like i’m doing that already. i’m already independent. i live a very adult life.”

what, no friends? ”i have such trust complexes. i’m close to like two people. i’ve always been like that. people misinterpret what i say all the time. they think i’m being offensive, when really, i’m only being opinionated.”

the little one claims to have had “lots of relationships,” but that they are all much older than her. why? she says she would “eat a boy [her age] alive.” well, that’s good to know. days after the teen vogue cover went public, the momsen celebrated her 16th birthday like most kids do - rocking out in a sheer pink nightie with her band, pretty reckless. sooo normal!
