Liv Rundgren Tyler (born July 1, 1977) is an American actress and model. Tyler was born Liv Rundgren at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. She is the first-born daughter of Bebe Buell, a model, singer, and former Playboy Playmate, and Steven Tyler, the lead singer of Aerosmith. Her mother named her after Norwegian actress Liv Ullmann, after seeing Ullmann on the cover of the March 5, 1977 issue of TV Guide. Tyler is of Italian, German, Polish, Russian and English ancestry on her father’s side and has three half-siblings: Mia Tyler, Chelsea Anna Tallarico, and Taj Monroe Tallarico. Her maternal grandmother, Dorothea Johnson, founded the Protocol School of Washington.
At birth, Buell claimed that rock star Todd Rundgren was Tyler’s biological father. At age eight, Tyler discovered that she was Steven Tyler’s daughter after meeting him and noticing a resemblance she shared with his other daughter, Mia. When she asked her mother about the similarity, the secret was revealed. The truth about Tyler’s paternity did not become public until five years later, in 1991, when she changed her name from Rundgren to Tyler, but kept the former as a middle name. Buell’s stated reason for the initial decision was that Steven was too heavily addicted to drugs at the time of her birth. Since learning the truth about her paternity, Liv and Steven have developed a close relationship. They have also worked together professionally, once when she appeared in Aerosmith’s music video for Crazy in 1993 and again when Aerosmith performed many of the songs in the film Armageddon, in which Liv Tyler starred.
Tyler attended the Congressional Schools of Virginia, Breakwater School and Waynflete School in Portland, Maine, before returning to New York City with her mother at the age of 12. She went to York Preparatory in New York City for junior high and high school, after her mother researched the school to accommodate Tyler’s ADHD. She graduated in 1995, and left to continue her acting career.
At the age of 14, Tyler received her first modeling job with assistance of Paulina Porizkova who took photos of her that ended up in Interview magazine. She later starred in television commercials. However, she became bored with her modeling career less than a year after it started, and decided to go into acting. She made her film debut in the 1994 film Silent Fall. She then appeared in supporting roles in Empire Records, Heavy, and That Thing You Do! . Tyler achieved international recognition as a result of her portrayal of Elf maiden Arwen Undómiel in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy. She has appeared in an eclectic range of films, including big-budget studio films such as The Strangers and The Incredible Hulk.
Tyler was formerly a vegan, but has since begun to eat meat. In 2003, she became the spokesperson for Givenchy perfume and cosmetics and in 2005 the brand named a rose after her, which was used in one of its fragrances. When asked about the way she spent her early life, Tyler said: “For me, I didn’t get much of a childhood in my teen years because I’ve been working since I was 14. But that also kept me out of trouble. When everybody was doing acid and partying like crazy, I was at work on a movie in Tuscany… having my own fun, of course, but it was a different kind of thing. I have no regrets. I love the way my life has gone. Tyler never took acting lessons.-Wikipedia

Why we think she’s hot:
It’s hard to believe that more time has passed between now and November of 1992, than the amount of time Liv Tyler had been alive at that point in time, when she debuted on her first magazine cover with that month’s issue of Seventeen. Though she was only a mite fifteen years old, when she was revealed to the world that day as Paulina Porizkova’s little protege, if you’re looking at that cover, or if you’re Liv looking in a mirror, you’ve gotta be thinking “Not much has changed.” Maybe it’s the way she reached an almost instant plateau of fame, that’s really never risen nor dropped, after appearing on that cover and starring in the now-famous 1993 Aerosmith video “Crazy” with Alicia Silverstone, combined with that fact that she seemingly hasn’t aged a day- that makes it all the more shocking when one realizes she’s been around for nearly twenty years now. But whether you loved her in Empire Records, Armageddon, Lord of The Rings, or The Strangers, six of those twenty years have been spent on The Smartasses Top 100 Sexiest Women List, and we’ve spent all of them drooling over her.
