Taylor Momsen - The Pretty Reckless. She idolized Chris Cornell She opened for him the day he killed himself. From Tom Morello::
"So Taylor had gone five-six shows on that tour with The Pretty Reckless without having met Chris Cornell, who was her hero and she couldn’t believe she was opening for. She had told me a story that the night Chris died, she was standing by the backstage door and Chris walked out towards the door because he had a car waiting and Soundgarden was done playing. Much like you said when you saw him come down the stairs, it was almost like a trail of dry ice, and he’s wearing, like a cloak or something. Taylor was like ‘Oh my God, here he comes.’ She didn’t know what to do, if she should just introduce herself and say ‘thank you.’ She just froze up. Chris walked over to her and said, ‘hey Taylor, welcome to the tour, glad you’re on board, you’re going to do great thing in your career and so glad that you are with us.’ Which made her world as you could imagine, which gave her great excitement for the rest of the tour and the future."
She was crushed, cancelled shows. She sang real Audioslave's "Like A Stone" to honor him and more.
Then she wrote this when she was 25. About her life, him, more. This is a real voice - sorry Billie Johnny Bravo Whisper Eilish - this is a Bond singer! Damn:
