During an interview with Revolver magazine in 2010 — the same year that Heidi Montag's debut album Superficial was released — Taylor Momsen opened up about being a songwriter. Specifically, Momsen revealed that she'd co-written one of the tracks on Montag's album, and she was less than impressed that the reality star had adopted the song. Momsen told Revolver (via Access), "I wrote a pop song [called 'Blackout' when I was 8] and recorded it with a producer as a demo. Heidi Montag from The Hills just recently sang it and put it out as her single [laughs]."
But Momsen didn't stop there. In fact, the former Gossip Girl star had some pretty scathing words for the reality TV starlet, especially concerning the fact that the track was supposedly penned by a child. "I'm like, 'OK, dude, you're singing an 8-year-old's words, but that's cool,'" Momsen told Revolver. Discussing how "Blackout" ended up on Montag's album, Momsen revealed, "It's so funny because I didn't shop it or anything and I get this call going, 'Did you write a song for Heidi Montag?' and I'm like 'What?”'
