It's not about money at all. Those of you who have felt sexually aroused by this picture, please rise your hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Haynie Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 30 years go by. Well, that might be enough time to know if the album cover really has had an effect on his ability to earn money. But then, if he is going to blame anyone it should be his parents for letting him be photographed. Does anyone recognize a 30 year old from his baby picture? Would anyone recognize a 10 year old if they only saw a baby picture? How would anyone today know that is him? Maybe Eldon had a habit of going around telling everyone that he is the baby in the picture. Whose fault is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshoowah Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 As a 13 year old when it was released, I can verify that all of my 8th grade friends bought the album for the artwork, not the music. That 4 month old penis was the hottest thing any of us had ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamerhead Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 He's got a 'Nirvana' tattoo and has recreated the cover (in a swimsuit) numerous times. If this doesn't get laughed out of court, but bottom really is getting deeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizanski Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I love how he's suing for a total of $450,000 ($150K from each band member). You'd think someone traumatized or negatively effected by being on the cover of a genre-defining record album would demand a more appropriate sum.

Still though, they list 8 defendants (not just the band members), but that's still "just" $1.2 million. You'd have to assume some of those would get thrown out (I think we all agree that they ALL should get thrown out), and some might get paid, albeit at a "let's make a deal" reduced amount. He'll end up with nothing, even if any of tis does get awarded to him, because he aimed so low. And then Courtney Love should shoot him in the face.

DaveL Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Well he’s admitting it’s kind of cool? Really did he have to say that? The photographer not having a release could definitely help his case Lastly I’m just a kid He’s f-ing 30 God help us all Lol Quite a few people in the world have seen my penis," he said, "So that's kinda cool. I'm just a normal kid living it up and doing the best I can while I'm here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbonesullivan Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I read a pretty good legal analysis on Yahoo, and they thing he's probably just hoping for a settlement. He really doesn't have much of a case, especially since his parents consented to the photo and were paid for it back in the day. Not to mention that NO ONE WOULD HAVE KNOWN it was him. It's a freaking baby. You can change a baby in public without anyone batting an eyelid. Also the idea that the picture was the reason that people bought the album, and had any real effect on album sales??? https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/does-spencer-elden-the-nevermind-baby-suing-nirvana-for-alleged-child-pornography-have-a-case-legal-experts-weigh-in-232739689.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
