**Taylor Momsen Reflects on 25 Years Since *How the Grinch Stole Christmas* and Reunion with Jim Carrey**
Taylor Momsen recently reunited with her *How the Grinch Stole Christmas* co-star Jim Carrey, marking 25 years since the beloved holiday film was released. The pair came together at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony on November 8, sharing a heartfelt moment that delighted fans and attendees alike.
When asked about her favorite memories from filming the movie, Momsen told *PEOPLE*, “I have a lot, honestly.” She went on to say, “I just love that he was very protective of me. He was always very kind. And just the entire experience of filming *Grinch* and getting to know him so well, even in all the makeup, was just wonderful.”
Momsen also revealed how Carrey’s commitment to his craft during the production left a “powerful, lasting impact” on her life as an adult. She shared, “And I’m excited to be able to tell him that as a grownup.”
At the event, the actors paused for photos together, sharing a sweet and nostalgic moment. Jim Carrey surprised everyone by admitting that they hadn’t seen each other since the movie’s release, highlighting how meaningful their reunion was after all these years.
Directed by Ron Howard, *How the Grinch Stole Christmas* debuted in 2000. The film tells the story of the Grinch, played by Jim Carrey, a character who despises Christmas and tries to ruin the holiday by stealing all the presents in the whimsical town of Whoville. Despite his efforts, Cindy Lou Who, portrayed by Momsen, believes there’s good inside the Grinch and forms an unlikely friendship with him.
While the movie was a huge success, Taylor Momsen has since shifted her focus away from acting. Besides her roles in *Spy Kids 2* and *Gossip Girl*, she has concentrated mainly on her music career. Today, Momsen is the frontwoman of Pretty Reckless, a New York City-based rock band known for its powerful sound and passionate performances.
This reunion and reflection serve as a touching reminder of the enduring impact *How the Grinch Stole Christmas* has had on its cast and fans alike, celebrating a quarter-century of holiday magic.
