Runways are often plied by rock stars' offspring--Liv Tyler, Elizabeth Jagger, Alexandra Richards--who fortunately look little like their grizzled dads. Enter the next generation: RILEY KEOUGH, 14, daughter of LISA MARIE PRESLEY, right, and granddaughter of Elvis, who is making her modeling debut this month in Milan.
