| | | Nirvana coverboy 'a bit embarrassed'
NEARLY two decades after becoming the music world's most famous naked swimming baby, California high school student Spencer Elden says he feels like a porn star.
The 17-year-old Los Angeles teenager was the centrepiece of one of the most iconic record sleeves of all time in 1991, when a photo of him swimming underwater graced the cover of Nirvana's hit album Nevermind.
But Elden admitted in an interview with MTV.com that his small role in music history has given him mixed feelings.
"It's kind of creepy that that many people have seen me naked," Elden said. "I feel like I'm the world's biggest porn star."
Nevermind became a huge success for Seattle-based grunge-rock band Nirvana, whose lead singer Kurt Cobain committed suicide in 1994. The album sold more than 10 million copies in the US alone.
While Elden has never seen a penny of royalties, he continues to make money from media requests while attending school and working part-time in a juice bar.
"It's kind of cool, knowing that I've been on an album cover, but I feel pretty normal about it because growing up, I've always known I was the Nirvana baby," he said. Nirvana coverboy 'a bit embarrassed' | NEWS.com.au Entertainment

It's kind of cool, knowing that I've been on an album cover, but I feel pretty normal about it because growing up, I've always known I was the Nirvana baby," he said. "It never really struck me as like, 'Oh, sh-- — that's me on the cover.' It's always just been whatever for me. At the time, my parents didn't know who Nirvana was. No one really knew who they were. And then all of a sudden, it took off, and I just happened to be on the album cover.

Of course, being the Nirvana baby has helped him with the ladies: "I have to use stupid pickup lines like, 'You want to see my p---s ... again.'"
| There was also some other quote from somwhere where he mentioned he was "glad to be part of the grunge scene" or something. |

haha, anyone pictures? | first off, the poppy book was written for courtney, with courtneys consent and cooperation. so anything in there is courtney-originated, i think it's a little unfair to call them POPPY'S fabrications. and secondly, i dont remember that being in the poppy book?

| | | that's true about courtney on the grateful dead sleeve. i remember a nardwaur interview or something where she showed it and pointed herself out along with both her parents.
that poppy z. brite book may have been done with courtney's co-operation, but that was no excuse to write the book like one of her anne rice-lite novels.
everybody was a "creature" with "sensuous features" and you would think courtney was on some lestatish quest instead of just being a fat, starfucking stripper. | |
