Nirvana baby grows up

Spencer Elden, the baby from the cover of Nirvana‘s “Nevermind,” recently became an intern for Obey Giant, the company created by Shepard Faiery, the artist responsible for those cool Obama graphics.

MTV News had a write-up about Mr. Elden:

Now, 17-year-old Elden is a high school student, who told MTV News last year that “it’s kind of creepy [to think] that that many people have seen me naked – I feel like I’m the world’s biggest porn star.”

Speaking of Shepard Faiery & Obey Giant, there’s an art exhibit of his work in Washington D.C. that’s ending soon.

UPDATE: Nerve.com recently posted an article entitled “The 40 Greatest Lost Icons in Pop Culture History,” featuring Spencer Elden, and various other individuals that might have otherwise gone unnoticed.

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything to this site. A little over 9 months, if you want to be specific. Too many other things in my life took priority. Since I’ve ignored this blog, it’s accumulated 20,197 comments. If you were one of the people that actually wrote to me, I’m sorry but I’m removing all of them. Seeing how 99.9 of these comments were from assholes trying to sell me crap I don’t need, good riddance! If you were part of the 0.1%, my apologies, so please feel free to write some more comments. With any luck, I might even approve some…. maybe.
