The Resume

    (February 22, 1952-September 7, 2002)
    Born in Santa Monica, California
    Birth name was Kathleen Hetzekian
    Model and actress
    Appeared in 'Andy Warhol's Bad' (1977)
    Appeared in the video for David Bowie's 'Jean Genie' (1972)
    Married David Johansen and Steven Tyler
    Mother of Mia Tyler
    Wrote the memoir 'Dream On: Livin' on the Edge with Steven Tyler and Aerosmith' (1997)

Why she might be annoying:

    She said it took three days to dye her hair platinum blonde 'like Jean Harlow.'
    She had an abortion after getting pregnant by Bowie.
    Her marriage with Johansen busted up in a year.
    She abused cocaine and heroin.
    She had to be resuscitated after overdosing.
    She threatened to include naked pics of Tyler in the paperback version of 'Dream On.' (Fortunately, the singer won a lawsuit blocking her from using the images.)

Why she might not be annoying:

    Her mother and stepfather were abusive. ('What would trigger a beating? You name it.')
    Tyler also beat her during their marriage.
    During the Ziggy Stardust era, Bowie borrowed her clothes, imitated her makeup and copied some of her moves.
    She inspired Johansen to write the New York Dolls song 'Looking for a Kiss.'
    She said, 'Mia is my favorite thing. I love her more than anything. She makes me laugh more than anything.'
    After suffering a series of strokes and ending up on Medicare and food stamps, Bowie and Tyler both donated guitars to a benefit auction to pay for her care (2001).
