Better late than never right? Chace was found attending Mao’s Last Dance screening which was held at the Crosby Street Hotel in NYC. Other celebrities in attendance were Jane Fonda, Kyle MacLachlan, and Catherine Keener.

Taylor Momsen has revealed that she wanted her band’s debut album to be “rock” and “loud”.

This week sees the Gossip Girl actress and her group The Pretty Reckless releasing their first record Light Me Up, and the 17-year-old singer has revealed how the album came into place.

“It was a natural formation,” explained Taylor – who doesn’t know who Justin Bieber is. “I’m a singer-songwriter, so for two years or so, I was experimenting with various producers, to see who shared the same vision as me.

“It seems there are a lot of pop producers right now, and hardly any rock producers. So, when I finally met Kato [Khandwala], it was a big relief, because he’s like the most rocking guy you’ll ever f***ing meet. That set the standard. Then [guitarist] Ben Phillips and I wrote all songs.”

Momsen – who was inspired by Garbage and The White Stripes to form the band, added to Interview: “I knew one thing: it would be rock. It would be loud. When actually writing the songs, though, inspiration came from everyone and everything.”

“Everything was organic, written on the acoustic guitar. I wanted song-driven rock; the elaborate flourishes and specific production all came later.”

As for her lyrics and themes to the album, Taylor added: “It’s not really a happy record; if anything, it’s sad. And the songs were co-written with Ben and Kato, but the words are definitely coming from me, and reflect my personal views on certain situations.

“I write about what I know, what I live, what I observe. Darkness is a subjective word; it depends what your viewpoint is and how you live life.”

Momsen recently denied insulting Rihanna in an interview.

Taylor Momsen has said that one of her favorite female rockers is Shirley Manson.

The Pretty Reckless singer revealed that despite being more inspired by male musicians, the Garbage frontwoman made a lasting impression on her as a young girl.

Speaking to Interview, the 17-year-old said: “One of my first favorite records was the debut Garbage album, which I heard when I was very young. Shirley Manson is a great female vocalist and performer and I admire her for that.

“But yeah, I do emulate men more – I grew up on Oasis, Soundgarden, AC/DC, The Beatles. I am trying to do my own thing, but there will always be comparisons, even if I don‘t agree with them.”

Momsen recently insisted that she is not directly inspired by Courtney Love, despite often being compared to her.
