Spencer Elden (born on July 9, 1991) is the model who appeared on the cover of Nirvana’s album Nevermind. Nirvana considered using a stock photograph of a swimming baby, but when that proved too expensive, they hired photographer Kirk Weddle. Weddle’s friends, Renata and Rick Elden, allowed their son Spencer to be photographed for about $200. The hook, line, and dollar were superimposed later. After seeing the photo, Kurt Cobain (Nirvana’s lead singer) and his wife Courtney Love agreed that they would take Spencer out to dinner when he got older.

Spencer is a lucky boy to be on the cover on Nirvana’s Nevermind album
Does he really have to have dinner with Courtney Love? Poor Bastard.
2 bad Kurt’s not around 2 take him 2 dinner. . .
I wonder if he even likes Nirvana? It must be awkward to have such an iconic face/nude body in the context of a teenager’s mind. I wonder if Frances Bean thinks he’s cute? Maybe if Clove takes him out, she’ll bring Frances along.

Who’d have thought such a cute little baby would grow into such a gangly dorky looking teen.
Shame on all the people who posted saying he’s ‘hot’ Were you not born with eyes?
“DID U KNOW THAT NIRVANA ONLY BECAME FAMOUS AFTER KURT KILLED HIMSELF.

You’re an idiot. Nirvana blew up in 92 after the release of nevermind. Personally I think one of the reasons he killed himself is because he was so famous, and couldnt deal with the constant pressure from the media.
kurt
self destructed because he was crippled by the circumcision
Kurt didn’t kill himself, Courtney did it.
What I want to know is: How did they get away with that cover? It is child pornography! People get busted with a naked 16 year old girl on their computer and go to prison, yet this album is in millions of homes… WTF!
Hi…ur so fucking lucky to be on the cover!!
can i just say this thread is gay
It must be weird to know that a significant proportion of the world has seen a picture of you as a naked baby… $200 isn’t enough! Should have got a %age!
I had the pleasure of meeting this highly gifted young man. Had he never been on this cover, he was destined for great things. Don’t assume things based on a picture.
DataFlake, You would have to be a TOTAL pervert to think of a baby swimming as porn or against some law. Not that some lawmakers aren’t pervs - like Senator Craig from Idaho so maybe some of our laws are perverted but this couldn’t be illegal anywhere. The biggest outrage here is that Americans are still mutilating their baby boys with circumcision. Now that should be against the law.
