Like most teens, she has a headstrong certainty that whatever it is--guitar, computer software, press conferences--she can figure it out for herself. Certainly she doesn't need adults to tell her whom or what she likes. Jim Carrey. Ricki Lake. Friends. Rollerblading. Clothes shopping. Double-pierced ears. Pro basketball.
