The “Nevermind” Baby’s Child Pornography Lawsuit Against Nirvana May Be Dismissed Because He Missed A Filing Deadline
Spencer Elden, the man who thinks anybody who had a poster of Nirvana’s Nevermind album hanging over their bed in the 90s is a sexual deviant, has had some bad news regarding his child pornography case against the band because he failed to respond in a timely manner to a motion requesting the suit be tossed out. Last summer, Spencer filed a lawsuit against members Nirvana and others including Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic as well as Kurt Cobain’s estate and therefore Courtney Love, executive of said estate. Spencer was seeking $150,000 from each of the 17 named defendants claiming his little baby pee-pee being used to sell records was tantamount to sex trafficking and child pornography. USA Today reports that the baby who appears naked, reaching for a dollar bill on the iconic album cover had until December 30, 2021 to respond to a motion to dismiss filed by the defendants, but I guess he must have overslept. It’s hard keeping a regular schedule when your job title is Disgruntled Baby Penis Model.
The “Nevermind” Baby Is Suing Nirvana Claiming The Album Art Is Child Pornography
Do you know how that baby on the album cover of Nevermind by Nirvana looks like he’s reaching out for that dollar bill? Well, that baby, Spencer Elden (pictured above), is still reaching. Vulture reports that Spencer has filed a lawsuit “alleging that the nude image constituted child pornography,” and that “the inclusion of currency in the shot makes the baby appear ‘like a sex worker.’” Spencer is seeking damages of $150,000 from each of the 15 named defendants which includes Nirvana’s Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, Kurt Cobain‘s estate, Courtney Love as executor of said estate, as well as the photographer, art director, and “a number of existing or defunct record companies that released or distributed the album in the last three decades.” But at least we the public are off the hook. In 2016 when Spencer recreated the photo for the 5th time, he said he wanted $0.25 from everybody who’d ever seen his baby penis. So even if Spencer wins, we get to keep the quarter!
