Actress Liv Tyler wraps her inner charm in men's outerwear

LIV TYLER WAS RIGHT about one thing: Her father was a rock star.

She just had the wrong rock star. Until she was 10, Liv thought Todd Rund-gren was her old roan. When Liv's mother, the former fashion model Bebe Buell, was pregnant, Steven Tyler, on the road with Aerosmith, was lost in a haze of drugs and alcohol, and Buell wanted something better for her little girl. "Steven was using lots of drugs, and that scared her," says Liv, who is now 17. So Buell moved to Maine and raised Liv as the daughter of Rundgren, whom Buell had once dated. "She did all these things to protect me."

Liv, dressed in a T-shirt and blue denim overalls, is sitting on a couch in Manhattan's West Village, discussing the difference between her coming of age and her father's. "Things were different for him," she says. "When he was my age, it was just the beginning: the beginning of rock & roll, of glamour, of fucking sex. And all I'm left with are the decisions and the consequences. I hope my decisions are better."

Liv, a model turned aspiring actress, is tall and lanky. Her long dark hair is piled in a neat librarian's bun. At times she has the look of somebody's kid sister, but she can also look astonishingly sexy. In her, the almost cruel features of her father have been remade; the angular face is here, only it's softer, even elegant. She has also inherited her father's wide-set eyes and the wide mouth that -- when she smiles --threatens to consume her entire face.

When Liv was in fifth grade, she and Buell went to see Rundgren perform. After the concert, Steven Tyler, who happened to be at the show, came backstage. Liv now recalls the special attention Tyler paid her, how he made her feel important. 'That's how Steven re-entered our lives," she says. Soon, Tyler began coming around to see Liv, who was puzzled by the attention. And she began to notice things. "Like that we had the same legs," she says. "Then I met his other daughter, my sister, who is about a year younger than me, and we were like identical twins. So I began to know. And I went to Mom and asked her if Steven Tyler was my father."
