Rock ‘n’ roll means many things to many people. But, for a lot of teenaged boys, a major reason for picking up a guitar is to get girls. Yes, it may sound misogynistic, but can we at least all agree that in rock ‘n’ roll, girls can be quite influential? For as long as music has been made, women have inspired art. And, in this case, music. And, in this specific case, the muse is Bebe Buell.

Bebe Buell made a name for herself in more than just a few ways. For one, she’s the mother of Liv Tyler. Second, she was one of the many rock star muses of the 1970s and ‘80s. She’s also a singer and former model. She’s had numerous high-profile relationships with rock stars. But don’t call her a “groupie” – she just doesn’t like that word.
