Taylor Momsen appears in a new spoken word music video for her band, The Pretty Reckless, in which she stands completely naked while reading a verse from her song "Under the Water" for Amp Rock TV's initiative, "The Words."
The 19-year-old rocker poetically reads off lyrics from the track, while black and white images of her body flash across the screen until it is revealed that she is, in fact, nude.
What a far cry from the days when Momsen played innocent teen Jenny Humphrey on The CW's "Gossip Girl."
Showing off her trademark raccoon eyes, a naked Momsen reads:
Lay my head under the water, lay my head under the sea. Excuse me sir am I your daughter? Won't you take me back and see? It's not a time for being younger and all my friends are enemies. And if I cried unto my mother, she wasn't there for me. Broken lines across my mirror show my face all red and bruised. And though I screamed and I screamed no one came running, I wasn't saved from you. Don't let the water drag you down, don't let me drown in the waves. I could be found, I could be one that was saved. Lay my head under the water. Alone I pray for calmer seas. And when I wake from this dream with chains all around me ... I've never been free.
Well, we all know Momsen is not afraid to shock.
