The Resume

    (April 19, 1949- )
    Born in Paris, France
    Birth name was Anne Paloma Ruiz-Picasso y Gilot
    Daughter of Pablo Picasso
    Jewelry designer for Tiffany & Co
    Created the perfume 'Paloma' for L'Oreal (1984)
    Appeared in the film 'Immoral Tales' (1974)

Why she might be annoying:

    She celebrated her first marriage by going to a disco where women wrestled in a ring decorated like a wedding cake.
    She joked that as she has gotten older, she looks like her father in a wig.
    She described her perfume as 'jewelry for the senses.'
    'Paloma' finished last in a 'sniff off' of celebrity perfumes held by People magazine (1990).

Why she might not be annoying:

    She was the only one of Pablo Picasso's children allowed to watch him paint. (Mainly because 'I could be quiet for hours.')
    Pablo Picasso cut off all contact with her and her brother Claude after their mother wrote a tell-all memoir about life with the artist (1964).
    Her fondness for vintage clothes inspired Yves Saint Laurent to create his late-70s 'Scandal' collection.
    She exposed her breasts in several photos by Helmut Newton.
    She and her second husband have competed several times in the Morocco Classic auto rally -- he drives, she navigates.
    Tiffany design director John Loring said, 'She was just what the company needed to take Tiffany into the 21st century.'
