The multi-talented Bijou Phillips has led an unusual life. She spent her childhood in New York, California and South Africa. She excelled in Equestrienne sport. When she was 13, she became a model to escape boarding school and became one of the youngest people to grace the cover of Interview Magazine and Italian Vogue. Bijou also appeared in several ads for Calvin Klein. At 17, she acquired a record deal and began work on her album 'I'd Rather Eat Glass' produced by Talking Heads' Jerry Harrison. She was later cast in "Black and White" by director James Toback and garnered nothing but glowing praise from critics for her performance. Larry Clark cast her in "Bully" which led The Hollywood Reporter to name her one of 2002's "Shooting Stars" of tomorrow. Bijou continues to make great films with last year's role opposite Jeff Bridges and Kim Basinger in "The Door in the Floor", a film adaptation of John Irving's novel "A Widow For One Year". She most recently completed a leading role opposite Anne Hathaway in Oscar winning writer, Stephan Gaghan's "Havoc", directed by Oscar winning documentary filmmaker, Barbara Kopple. This is only the beginning for her, with several projects on the horizon, including her portrayal of `Lorna Doom' opposite Shane West in a feature film about late 70s seminal-punk band "The Germs". "Backwater" produced by "Scream's" Kevin Williamson, and the upcoming David Fincher film, "Zodiac" with Robert Downey Jr., Jake Gyllenhaal and Gary Oldman.

Daughter of John Phillips and Geneviève Waïte

Half sister of Chynna Phillips, Mackenzie Phillips and Jeffrey Phillips. Sister of Tamerlane Phillips.

Professional model and singer.

An animal lover, Bijou owns two dogs and a horse. One is a white male Pekinese named Mama's Flea Angel Eyes (called Flea), which she got in 1996. The other is a black female Pek-a-Poo (a Pekinese/Poodle mix) named Sweet Pea (called Pea), which she got in early 2000 after convincing a journalist who was interviewing her to buy the puppy for her.

Her horse is named Finnegan.

Named after the song 'My Petite Bijou' by Lambert, Hendricks and Ross. 'Bijou' means 'jewel' in French.

Champion equestrienne as a child.

On the cover of 'Interview' magazine when she was 13, and shortly thereafter became the youngest model to ever appear on the cover of Vogue (she was on the Italian edition).

The title of her album 'I'd Rather Eat Glass' is a reference to what she's rather do than go back to modeling.

Her godfather was Andy Warhol.

Is a big fan of Rickie Lee Jones, Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and Motown.

Close friends with Nicky Hilton and Paris Hilton.

Was a guest at Nicky Hilton's Las Vegas wedding to Todd Andrew Meister.

She's the daughter of the "mommas and the pappas" singer. She's famous in the tabloids for being a "wild child". I guess she posed for playboy when she was 18.

^ gorgeous, thank you so much for those pictures! She looks beautiful in those pics!

From what I've heard, aparently her and Danny Masterson broke up.

 

[waukon73]

Is it true she was in foster care for a while?

 

[justlooking]

she's pretty- with make up and hair perfect, she could do a Kidman (i.e. transform from relatively pretty to Hollywood face)

she has a good body.

If those are the basic requirements in Hollywood, she has such a good base.

She was on the cover of pavement magazine a couple of issues back I have it sitting here, a beautiful spread of her and a big interview, I don't have a scanner though

 

[SiennaInLondon]

I remember seeing her in Bully years ago and thinking she was gorg. Her legs are a little Kate Moss-esque.

[cookymonster]

^Pretty, in a very rocker chick/slightly drugged up kind of way. Don't like the outfit tho.

Wow. Beautiful.

Her dad was a singer from the Mamas and the Papas, and her mom was a model and a singer.

 

[so_jealous]

She's actually really cute. All I really know is that she's Paris's sidekick and has an abnormally high voice that can be very irritating.
