Cindy Lou Who/Taylor Momsen - How The Grinch Stole Christmas (Universal Studios 2000)


 

Taylor Momsen portrayed Cindy Lou Who in How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), bringing a gentle, earnest charm to the role that helped balance the film’s quirky humor and Jim Carrey’s energetic performance as the Grinch. At just seven years old, Momsen became memorable for her wide-eyed innocence, soft-spoken delivery, and the way her character’s curiosity and compassion drove the story’s emotional core—especially her quest to understand the true meaning of Christmas. Though the film featured heavy makeup and fantastical Whoville designs, Cindy Lou Who stood out for her more natural, human look, helping audiences connect with her character. Momsen’s performance remains one of the most recognized childhood roles of the actress, who later transitioned into music and other acting projects.
