Quincy Jones' daughter smoulders on the pages of the American fashion culture magazine.

The brunette appears on the cover of her story, entitled Tongue Tied & Twisted, in a sheer top with crystals by Naeem Khan and high-waisted underwear by American Apparel.

And while she may have grown up in the company of music's biggest superstars - count Michael Jackson among them - as the daughter of legendary music producer Jones and television star Peggy Lipton, the actress admits even she still gets star-struck.
