Watching Taylor Momsen squeeze back into her original Grinch costume is equal parts hilarious and strangely emotional. Twenty-five years after starring in the holiday classic, Momsen revisits a piece of film history that predates her music career, her public persona, and much of her adult life.
She approaches the moment with self-awareness and humor, acknowledging how surreal it feels to physically reconnect with a role from childhood. The costume itself becomes a time capsule—stitched with memories of long shoots, oversized sets, and a film that has become deeply embedded in holiday culture.
What makes the video especially charming is Momsen’s relaxed attitude toward nostalgia. There’s no forced reverence—just curiosity, laughter, and appreciation for how unexpectedly long a moment can last in pop culture.
A delightful watch for fans of holiday cinema and a fun warm-up for a festive movie binge.
