AceShowbiz - Former singer, model, and rock star girlfriend Bebe Buell is planning to spill all her secrets in a new documentary.
The mother of Liv Tyler, who she shares with Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler, helped inspired Kate Hudson's Penny Lane character in 2000 film "Almost Famous", and she's also known for her string of celebrity boyfriends, including Todd Rundgren, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, and Elvis Costello.
Buell began modelling at age 17, was named Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month in 1974, and quickly became a staple of the 1970s rock scene. Now she's documenting her colourful life and is promising to spill some secrets.
"During the Covid break, I took some time to reflect on my life and all the amazing memories I made and people I met. I also thought about those we have lost recently and how so many will never be able to share their true experiences," she tells Rolling Stone.
"I realized that now is the time to tell the real story of my life, including things I have never spoken about before."
The documentary will begin filming in January (22) with Gabby Bryan directing.
"I've known Gabby for many years - like me, she came of age in the wild world of rock as the daughter of Rock & Roll Hall of Fame member David Bryan, keyboardist for Bon Jovi and a Tony Award-winning composer," Buell explains.
"Gabby grew up around the industry and knows the good, the bad, and the ugly. I've been waiting to do this for years, and I feel like I have finally found the right team to create magic with. Gabby and Dan understand my story and they'll help me to tell it in a way that captures the essence of my journey."
Bryan adds, "Directing the first documentary on Bebe is truly a dream. She is not only a cultural icon but also a trailblazer... Bebe's stories from the peak of the rock & roll era will have your jaw on the floor. On top of that, she's opened the door for female artists and their sexual freedom. She's truly a legend and I'm honored to tell this story. I love Bebe and you'll love her too!"
