February 2004
metamorphosis
Whether composing music or putting on makeup, Vanessa Carlton has learned what she wants and how to get it.
A lot has changed for Vanessa Carlton since her hit single, "A Thousand Miles," dominated the airwaves two years ago. From her more developed taste as a musician to a romance with Third Eye Blind frontman Stephan Jenkins, the singer/pianist's professional and personal growth have culminated in her sophomore effort, Harmonium. Boyfriend Stephan produced the record and, says Vanessa, "He really allowed me to spread my wings and put my mark on everything." She describes the resulting album as "darker and more complicated" than the first: "I kind of took the gloss off my first CD, Be Not Nobody. That left Harmonium flawed in all the ways it should be." And though onstage she has traded her hippie-chic stylings for a more dramatic look, Vanessa prefers to keep her daily beauty routine as pure and straightforward as her sound. "I usually just splash some water on my face," she reveals. "I only use soap to take makeup off." The pop-star's sole high-maintenance indulgence has been a "swanky" bus, which she's currently riding cross-country in for her U.S. tour. "I'm a little spoiled this time around," she admits. "I have a really nice bed in the back." Good thing, considering Vanessa's number-one beauty essential—lots of sleep. "I like to get eleven hours" she says. "Then I'm in my prime." —EVONNE GAMBRELL


EBONY AND IVORY "MY FATHER HAS ALWAYS LOVED ROCK, BUT MY MOTHER WAS A CLASSICAL PIANIST. I LIKE TO THINK MY STYLE IS A PERFECT MIX OF THE TWO," SAYS VANESSA.
