Here some quotes from the media concerning her smoking habbit:
"When Liv is asked why she smokes a pack of cigarettes a day, even though she knows it will kill her, she says quite simply, 'It's the only thing I have that's my own'" Boston Globe, Oct. 13, '94
"That's Liv. So hot. Until you get closer and detect the telltale odor of cigarettes. Never mind the nicotine. She's 18" USA Today, Jun. 20, '96
"I smoke but I won't do it in public because I don't want them to think it's cool" Calgary Sun, Jun. 22, '96
"'I was scared to death,' says Tyler, reaching for a cigarette. Earlier, Tyler's mother brought her daughter two things to help her through a day of interviews: the cigarettes and a toy monkey. The monkey sits on a chair untouched, but the cigarettes are almost gone" Arizona Republic, Jun. 27, '96
"an actress who seems sensitive and down-to-earth one moment and a chain-smoking hipster the next, Liv Tyler is, let's face it, not an ordinary girl" Cosmopolitan, Aug. 1, '96
"She has already cadged two Marlboros off me, and I don't even smoke. Her publicist has warned me that Liv is a nicotine fiend who never seems to have any of her own.", "Liv sparks up, draws in deeply and settles back into her chair", "'So', she says, sparking up a second Marlboro" Sky Magazine (UK), Sep. '96
"Tyler's worst vice appears to be smoking cigarettes. 'I wish I didn't,' she says. 'It's such a bad habit, and it makes everything stink. But it tastes so good. And I'm not ready to stop. But if I'm still smoking at 25,'' she promises, 'I'll lock myself up for a month'" Winnipeg Free Press, Mar. 20, '97
"Except for cigarettes, I don't have an addictive personality" Mademoiselle, Aug. '99
"She would like to smoke? But this is a no-smoking restaurant - please bring her an ashtray" Elle, May '00
"Last time we spoke, you said if you didn't quit smoking by the time you were 25, you'd lock yourself up for a month. Two years to go. 'I'm still going to do that. I have to stop. But it's hard! It becomes such a crutch. Like, when I'm doing interviews or if I'm on my computer, I just have to smoke constantly'" MrShowbiz.com, May '01
"One day when I was about 15, I was having a cigarette with my friends in a park, all being cool. All of a sudden their jaws just dropped in horror. I was like, 'What?!' and then turned around and saw my mom storming up. I threw the cigarettes at a friend thinking she wouldn't see. Like, 'They're not mine. I was just having one!' My mom just grabbed me and marched me down the street" World Entertainment News Network, Mar. 6, '01
"I know it is a disgusting habit and I really want to quit. All day long I can do without a cigarette no problem. But when I come home to chill out I will play computer games and I will be smoking constantly. It is an awful habit" The People (UK), Jul. 29, '01
'I'd never smoke in front of a young person. I would hate anyone to think I was some sort of role model - and then begin smoking as a result.'"
(July 2002) Update: Liv has quit smoking
"I'm having a very stressful two weeks. It's so hot, and I'm quitting smoking. I smoked for eleven years, and you always think it's calming you; you have a fag when you're stressed out, and you're like, Thank God! But it's actually the opposite. It's like having a coke habit!" New York Metro, Aug '02
I got this all from another site, but I never knew she smoked, i never would of geussed either
