“Bebe’s stories from the peak of the rock & roll era will have your jaw on the floor. Growing up in the music industry, I understand the depth of who she is and what she stands for,” Bryan says. She is not only a cultural icon but also a trailblazer. “Directing the first documentary on Bebe is truly a dream. A release date has yet to be announced.īuell was also one of the inspirations for rock groupie Penny Lane in Cameron Crowe’s 2000 film Almost Famous, although the character chose to refer to herself as a “Band Aid.” Buell says she’s a “patron of the arts” Bryan calls her a pioneer in women’s empowerment. Daniel Catullo’s City Drive Studios, the company behind massive multi-camera productions like the music series Landmarks Live, will produce the film, which marks the directorial debut of Gabby Bryan.
The documentary will begin filming in January in New York and Nashville, where Buell resides. “I realized that now is the time to tell the real story of my life, including things I have never spoken about before.” I also thought about those we have lost recently and how so many will never be able to share their true experiences,” Buell tells Rolling Stone. “During the Covid break, I took some time to reflect on my life and all the amazing memories I made and people I met. The as-yet-untitled film charts Buell’s rise, fall, and rebirth as a model - she was fired by her agency after posing nude in Playboy - her relationships with rock icons like Todd Rundgren and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, and her own onstage career as a charismatic vocalist and performer. The life of Bebe Buell, fashion model, singer, and fixture of the Seventies rock scene, will be the subject of a new documentary.
