Taylor Momsen Revisits Cindy Lou Who, Slips Into Original 'Grinch' Dress 25 Years Later

The Instagram fitting serves as a nostalgia-driven promo for her new recording of 'Where Are You Christmas?' on an October holiday EP.

Overview

  • Video from the try-on shows stylist Lindsey Hartman helping Momsen with the child-size sleeves as a voice off camera jokes her arms are now “too jacked.”
  • Unable to fully fit the sleeves, she reworked the outfit into an off-the-shoulder look and shot photos with Cindy’s signature red, fur-trimmed cape.
  • Her EP, Taylor Momsen's Pretty Reckless Christmas, released Oct. 31, features a re-recorded “Where Are You Christmas?” and other holiday tracks.
  • Coverage frames the moment as part of the film’s 25th-anniversary celebration as Momsen openly embraces a role she once felt conflicted about after school bullying.
  • She reunited with Jim Carrey at the Nov. 8 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony, as profiles also recount her memories of his protective behavior on set.
