Taylor Momsen 'Loves Fire'

According to her The Pretty Reckless bandmate, Taylor is a bit of an arsonist...

Taylor Momsen is allegedly obsessed with fire, leaving her The Pretty Reckless bandmates 'stunned' by her bad habit to set random objects alight.

Guitarist Ben Phillips has revealed that sometimes the Gossip Girl actress goes 'too far' with her fire obsession claiming: "Taylor loves setting things on fire, so this is great. Taylor thinks we're some rock 'n' roll bada*ses."

"In the studio, there was this pit where the owner would burn stuff. We'd burn old keyboards, computers, stuff them full of TNT and set them on fire. Taylor loves fire."

He added: "I shouldn't say this. One morning, Taylor got into the studio really early - she'd just had her dog neutered and brought in the bits. Which she then burned. We were grossed out."

Despite being a bit of a fire-starter, Momsen has insisted that she is just a typical teenager and is not a bad person.

The 17-year old told heat magazine: "I do smile when things are funny. I'm quite moody, I'm a teenager and I'm PMS-ing all the f***ing time, what do you expect?"

She explained: "I am quite moody and I have an interesting life and I get my picture taken 24/7, and it's not always pleasurable. I am really moody, but I'm not a mean person. I'm actually nice."

Taylor was recently involved in a war-of-words with Rihanna after she claimed that RiRi was a wannabe 'rockstar.'
