LONDON, April 19 (UPI) -- A daughter of British rocker Bob Geldof stars in a TV documentary about the turbulence of teenage years, Sky News reported.

Peaches Geldof, who has followed in her late mother's footsteps in writing magazine and newspaper columns, will be the focus of the Sky One documentary "Peaches Geldof: Teenage Mind."

The 16-year-old calls herself a "shallow" teenager who just wants to be seen as cool. One body piercing got her grounded, but father Bob is "cool" with a more recent tongue stud, she said.

Peaches lives at home with her sisters, father and his girlfriend, French actress Jeanne Marine.

Mother Paula Yates, who died of a suspected heroin overdose five years ago, waged a bitter custody battle in 1994 when she left Geldof for INXS singer Michael Hutchence.

Peaches Geldof dates disc jockey Llewelyn Graves, the 21-year-old grandson of poet Robert Graves, who hopes to turn her into a rap star.
