Taylor Momsen is on the August 2009 cover of Teen Vogue. Taylor is a perfect fit for the Teen Vogue cover, don’t you think? In the article, she tells Teen Vogue all about her love of singing, her band Pretty Reckless and her style transformation.

I had long, pretty hair, and it didn’t fit me. I’m pretty, but I’m not, like, a “pretty girl.” So I pulled up a bunch of photos of Joan Jett and said, “Do that to my hair.” There was a distinct change in my wardrobe, too, and I know people were a little, um, taken aback. But it wasn’t me that changed—it was just that I decided to start being myself. Now I do my own makeup, my own hair, and dress myself, and it feels better.

“I’ve always wanted to make music,” she explains. “I was literally humming melodies before I could talk.”

She’s very funny, too! Here’s what Taylor has to say about dating boys her own age:

Boys are so much less mature than girls as it is; there’s just no way— I would eat a boy my age alive.
