THE PRETTY RECKLESS releases video for 'Where Are You Christmas?'
02-12-2025
THE PRETTY RECKLESS has released the official music video for “Where Are You Christmas?” from the band’s acclaimed Christmas EP, “Taylor Momsen’s Pretty Reckless Christmas”, out now via Fearless Records. The nostalgic, revamped visual stars frontwoman Taylor Momsen who reclaims her iconic role as Cindy Lou Who from the 2000 film “Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas”. Warm, sentimental and full of holiday spirit, the video is a gift for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
Watch “Where Are You Christmas” below.
The video opens with a throwback broadcast clip of Jay Leno announcing Taylor Momsen‘s appearance on “The Tonight Show” during the original release of “Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas”, ushering in a full circle moment for Taylor as she reconnects with her younger self on-screen. The visual bridges past and present — transitioning into the grittier, electrifying version of the artist that she is today. She duets with her childhood self before taking the lead, breaking into a rock-driven, reimagined version of the beloved holiday anthem, all while performing on a stage decked out in Christmas decor.
Midway through the visual, “When We Were Young” from the Christmas EP gently cuts in, offering a seamless transition before Taylor concludes with “Christmas, Why Can’t I Find You?” The video closes with her taking the stage solo in a striking bright-red Christian Siriano dress as she delivers the song’s final notes for the first time in 25 years. It’s a wholesome, fun, and beautiful tribute to Taylor‘s evolution as an artist and a celebration of where THE PRETTY RECKLESS have arrived with their powerful, signature sound.
Over the past month, Taylor performed alongside SOUNDGARDEN in a tribute at the 2025 Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony, where she reunited with her former co-star Jim Carrey. She also delivered a performance of the single in this year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Last August, THE PRETTY RECKLESS released a single, “For I Am Death”. The song comes ahead of a newly recorded album.

Speaking about the song, THE PRETTY RECKLESS frontwoman Taylor Momsen said: “With ‘For I Am Death’, I want the music to speak for itself, allowing the listener to decide what it means to them. The interpretation of the song might align with my own, or it might come from the heart of the audience. Either way, I’m excited to see what people take away from it and what it means to them. Oh, and rock and roll will never die.”
The music video, directed by Lewis Cater, was released alongside the single, which sees Taylor transform into a malevolent and haunting figure. Surrounded by sinister forces, she represents the personification of death that she embodied when writing the song.
The album “DEATH BY ROCK AND ROLL” followed 2010’s “Light Me Up”, 2014’s “Going to Hell”, and 2016’s “Who You Selling For”, is titled after the first single.
