Personal life:
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

performance.
