Taylor Momsen: Pretty Reckless in London

Taylor Momsen performs her first live gig in the UK with her band “The Pretty Reckless” on Wednesday (May 12) at London’s Notting Hill Arts Club.

The 16-year-old Gossip Girl actress admitted to “relaxing” by playing with her switchblade knife. “I have a knife collection. My favorite’s my switchblade,” she told Metro.

“I flew from New York to Los Angeles and still had a couple of knives in my purse. I thought I took them all out but they got tucked up in the folds.I went through security, took them on the plane, opened my bag to get my wallet in LA and they fell out. I was like: ‘Holy s***!’” She added, “I have my favorite black knife with me all the time. It’s a switchblade. It relaxes me to flick it.”
