Spencer Elden, the baby pictured on Nirvana?s ?Nevermind? album cover, has perfectly re-created the iconic shot (with shorts on).
In possibly one of the spookiest shots we?ve seen (my Lord, do we feel old), the baby originally pictured on Nirvana?s legendary ?Nevermind? album has re-created the shot as a seventeen year old.
Spencer Elden, now a high school student, went back to the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center in Pasadena, California, to take the picture again. Originally, Elden?s parents were paid $200 for the Kirk Waddle photographed shot. The new picture was taken by British photographer John Chapple.
"It's kind of cool, knowing that I've been on an album cover," Spencer told the Independent. "But I feel pretty normal about it because growing up, I've always known I was the Nirvana baby. It never really struck me like, 'Oh, shit, that's me on the cover'."
Básicamente, el mismo chaval que tiraron a la piscina hace 17 años por 200 dólares repite la experiencia, pero con bañador.
