Taylor Momsen Doesn't Care What People Think Of Her

• 24th Sep 2010

The 17-year-old star has been criticised in the past for her provocative outfits and outrageous behaviour, but she insists she isn’t bothered by any of it as she is just being true to herself.

She said: “It’s about owning it no matter what anyone says. This is who I am and this is who I am going to be. It’s about every girl being true to themselves.”

Taylor has previously said she has “no interest” in being a role model after she was slated for being pictured smoking when she was 16.

She said: “I smoke, so what? Why do people give a s**t what a 16-year-old girl who they've never met does? It's not like I'm sitting there going, 'Kids, you should go buy a pack of cigarettes.'

“When I walk outside with a cigarette and someone takes a picture of it and puts it on the internet, it's not my problem. I'm just living my life and I'm not gonna live my life for other people.

“I don't read that c**p that describes me as having an attitude, but I don't know why that's a bad thing. I didn't get into this to be a role model for seven-year-olds. I have no interest in doing that.

“If parents don't like some of the stuff I do then they shouldn't let their kids watch me.”
