Lauren Bush, George W. Bush's Niece, Debuts Fashion Line Under Different Name

[CatWoman]

Tuesday is tradition­ally an important day of the week in politics. Maybe that's why Lauren Bush, niece to George W. and granddaughter to George, chose it to introduce her first ready-to-wear collection called Lauren Pierce, a capsule line of environmentally sustainable styles. But before we get to the clothes, an obvious question looms: Why Pierce and not Bush? "It wasn't a conscious decision," says Bush.

Oh, come on.

9. I don't blame her..

after reading the article, I don't see any family resemblance. Maybe she was adopted?

11. Grandmother's maiden name---Barbara Pierce

Or maybe the distant connection with Franklin Pierce, 14th president.
