The rock singer not only has Smith’s signature punk look, she has the vocal talent—and she’s working on her acting, too. Friedberger is set to star in an upcoming indie, Slow Machine, opposite Chloë Sevigny. The film has been described as “Andy Warhol directs a Whit Stillman thriller.” (We think Smith would approve.)

We’ve said it before: Bochert looks like Smith’s long-lost daughter. Plus, she even once performed backup vocals with Smith onstage.

Aside from being a poet and musician, Smith is also a talented visual artist. Fox, a 25-year-old illustrator and great-granddaughter of Ernest Hemingway, fits the artsy bill and she’s got a bang to match.
