Her musical taste happily ignored neat categories. Puccini could live beside Marilyn Manson, while Joan Jett and Nine Inch Nails felt closer to the sound she wanted to create.

By 24, the blonde singer was preparing to introduce herself with a debut solo album that joined her technical training to her taste for something far rougher. That ambition belonged to Cleo Rose Elliott, the only daughter of actors Sam Elliott and Katharine Ross.
Sam Elliott walked arm-in-arm with his wife, Katharine Ross, and their daughter, Cleo Rose Elliott, at the New Line 40th Anniversary “The Golden Compass” party during the 2007 Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France. Looking striking with his long silver hair and a sharp black suit paired with a crisp white tie, Sam shared a warm look with Katharine, who smiled brightly in an elegant black ensemble, while Cleo stood beautifully by his side in a vibrant, sequined strapless top featuring colorful horizontal stripes. | Source: Getty Images
