Liv Tyler

Liv Tyler was born on July 1, 1977 at Portland, Maine, USA to the couple of Steven Tyler who was a lead singer of Aerosmith and Bebe Buell (a former model).

At an early age both mother and daughter moved from their Portland, Maine home to New York. Tyler was an ordinary looking girl as a child with braces on the teeth and also was a bit overweight. She then began to work very hard on her looks and after sometime her hard work paid off. When she was 14 years old she dropped excessive weights and result was a Snow White beauty with silverish complexion, dark hair, blue eyes and red lips. These qualities made this young Tyler a huge attraction for advertisements and fashion magazines.

At first she was not too serious about acting but while doing a television commercial in South America, she decided to take up acting as her career seriously. A show business agent in the U.S. was keeping a close watch on her and when they got together she was approached with a steady stream of films.

In the year 1994 she appeared for the Aerosmith’s Crazy video. Her too sexy dance sequence in the video changed the whole base of her life. She achieved a huge fan-base as a result of this appearance. At that time she was only 17 years old. But her talents saw the right direction with her big-screen debut 'Silent Fall' in the year 1994, closely followed by 'Empire Records', 'Upstate Story', 'Heavy' in 1995, and 'That Thing You Do' in 1996.

Then she starred in 'Everyone Says I Love You' in 1996 but she amazed everyone with her role in 'Stealing Beauty' in the same year and was awarded with a nomination in that year’s Sundance Film Festival. But there was more to come for this hardworking lady. In the next year she appeared in 'U-Turn' and 'Inventing the Abbotts' which became blockbuster hits. She continued with 'Armageddon' which featured the soundtrack of her dad in the year 1998.

In 1999, films like 'Cookie’s Fortune', 'Plunkett & Macleane', 'The Little Black Book', and 'Eugene Onegin' got released.

Then she starred in the TV movie 'One Night At McCools', and the feature films 'Dr. T' and the 'Women and Passion of Mind'. Then the much speculated blockbuster hit 'Lord of the Rings' got released in the theaters in which she portrayed 'Arwen'.

It's not surprising at all that this 5' 10', talented beauty had little trouble in finding her place among all other notable Hollywood’s top stars.
