Taylor Momsen Picture
TeenTelevision: Is this really exciting for you to make a transition onto a show with older kids?
Taylor: Oh, it's totally a blast. I'm having so much fun. Everyone is so great. I am younger, obviously, and it's a reality check, at the end of the day, because they treat me like such an individual, which I totally appreciate and totally love. But then, they'll go out and I have to go home and do homework. [Laughs] But, it's good. I love it. Everyone's so nice.

TeenTelevision: In the series you have cute Penn Badgley as a protective older bro. Do you have an older bro in real life?
Taylor: No, I'm the oldest. I think that's the only time I'm actually the oldest. I'm always the baby. I'm the baby in my school. I'm the baby on the show. I have a little sister who's 10. Her name is Sloane and she's awesome. I love her. She looks just like me. She's done a couple things, like 'SVU,' and stuff like that.

TeenTelevision: Did you and Penn sit down and talk about the brother/sister relationship?
Taylor: We didn't really sit down, but at the beginning of filming, he said, 'I don't have a little sister. I don't really get you.' And then, by the end of the [pilot episode] he was like, 'No, don't talk to him. He can't talk to you.' He's protective now. He's like a big brother to me.

TeenTelevision: He told us he does feel that way. Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick are going to have an apartment in New York. Are you going to live with your parents?
Taylor: I'm going to live with my mom and my sister. We're moving into Tribeca. We have an apartment there in a new building. It's really nice. We're really excited. It's going to be great. I love SoHo, and I love that area.
