Jeff Buckley was so ashamed to be in PEOPLE's '50 Most Beautiful' he bought all the copies he could to hide it

A new documentary reveals that singer Jeff Buckley tried to buy as many copies of PEOPLE's '50 Most Beautiful' issue as he could to prevent fans from seeing him in it.

Wasser also shares a story of how Buckley took her with him to buy every issue of the magazine they could find, spending hundreds of dollars in the process, to try to keep anyone from seeing the page with his image. Featuring raw interviews with his former girlfriends Wasser and Rebecca Moore and his mother, Mary Guibert, director Amy Berg's new documentary is an exploration of Buckley's life and untimely death from accidental drowning. It chronicles his challenging childhood with his absent father and young mother (she was only 17 years old when she got pregnant), as well as his battle to remain authentic with his music while dealing with the demands of fame.
