Taylor Momsen Wearing Her Cindy Lou Who Dress 25 Years Later Will Make Your Heart Grow

Taylor Momsen, 32, celebrated 25 years since the film by sharing a video trying on her original Cindy Lou Who costume, highlighting her evolving style with a rock twist.

  • On Dec. 22, Taylor Momsen shared an Instagram video showing she squeezed into her original Cindy Lou Who costume 25 years later; she is now 32 and played Cindy Lou Who at age 6 in How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
  • To explain the post, Momsen has said she had mixed feelings and faced past bullying but has since embraced the nostalgic appeal while re-recording 'Where Are You Christmas?' with The Pretty Reckless last month.
  • Stylist Lindsey Hartman helped pull the kid-sized plaid Cindy Lou Who dress on as Momsen styled it off-the-shoulder with the red-and-white fur-trimmed cape, pink mittens, and black combat boots.
  • In November, Momsen reunited with Jim Carrey at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony where she performed with Soundgarden and he introduced the band, while fans praised her post in the comments.
  • Getting into full Grinch makeup initially took eight and a half hours, and makeup supervisor Rick Baker carried a 100-pound tool belt while Jim Carrey trained to endure the costume; Kazu Hiro and the makeup department won the Oscar for Best Makeup and Hairstyling.
