Teen actress Taylor Momsen, 16, is taking a long break from shooting during Gossip Girl‘s fourth season for "creative reasons," according to a report in Entertainment Weekly. The young actress came under fire earlier this year for her dismissive comments regarding the crisis in Haiti ("[I’m] not so much thinking about that") and her responsibilites as a role model for young girls ("I don’t care.").

Reports are that a major life change will come to Jenny Humphrey, Momsen’s character, on the finale of Gossip Girl this year. It hasn’t yet been determined how many episodes she will appear in the following season. –MEGHAN GROSSO
