Robert Pattinson May Play Kurt Cobain 2010-04-09 08:30:32

First it was Ewan McGregor. Then James McAvoy. Now, Robert Pattinson is the third Brit whose name has been thrown into the ring to play Kurt Cobain in the upcoming biopic of the Nirvana front man's life. If The Sun is to be believed (and I'm not saying it is), Courtney Love has her heart set on Pattinson to play her former husband, with Scarlett Johansson as her own likeness. I'm going to wait Read more

15 Years Later: Remembering Kurt Cobain

On April 5, 1994, Kurt Cobain, the enigmatic lead singer of Seattle's successful grunge-era band Nirvana, took his own life. I can't believe it was 15 years ago today because it still feels like just yesterday that my little teen self was trying to process this terrible news. I listed Nevermind as one of my favorite albums of all time in part because "Smells Like Teen Spirit" seemingly came out Read more

Kurt Cobain Toy: Love It or Hate It?

Bella recently stumbled across this Kurt Cobain toy from National Entertainment Collectibles. The $23 figure is based on Nirvana's appearance on MTV's Unplugged and shows Cobain in jeans and a gray sweater, hunched over his guitar. I'm not sure how to feel about this, so I'm turning to you: Is the Kurt toy a sweet tribute to a musical icon — or is it a tacky way to capitalize on Cobain's Read more

FABTV: Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Wait! Before you play this video close your eyes. I bet you can recite not only the lyrics but exactly what Kurt Cobain wore in this video. If you can't, Marc Jacobs certainly can. After all, this was the look that spawned his infamous "grunge collection" for Perry Ellis in 1992. Ironically, he was soon dismissed from the house — no matter, he obviously found his path. But back to Kurt. You Read more

James McAvoy to Play Kurt Cobain?

When first I heard of this project to turn the Kurt Cobain biography Heavier Than Heaven into a biopic at the urging of Courtney Love, it was in conjunction with Ewan McGregor's name as the actor who might be taking on the role of the Nirvana frontman. Recently the project acquired a production company, so it's definitely happening. But McGregor's name is nowhere to be found. Instead, there are Read more

Things That Make Me Feel Old: The Nirvana Baby Turns 16

Happy 16th birthday, floating Nirvana baby! Otherwise known as Spencer Elden, this boy will forever be known to many as the underwater baby on the cover of Nirvana's album Nevermind. According to an interview Elden did with NME in 2006, he's a fan of Nirvana, saying "Most bands around today can't even get near to what Nirvana did on that album, and I'll always be happy to be a part of it." It's Read more

Are the Kurt Cobain/Doc Martens Ads Offensive?

By now you have probably either seen or heard about these Dr Martens advertisements featuring Kurt Cobain and other deceased musicians sporting some Doc Martens boots while floating in heaven. The campaign apparently has something to do with the boots being "made to last," and the ad agency that made them (Saatchi & Saatchi) stood by the images, calling them "edgy." Meanwhile, the Dr Martens Read more

Courtney Love spent time with Kimberly Stewart at Coachella this weekend showing off her new body. Looks like she's going to be pretty busy once she gets back to LA as well. She told Spinner.com that she's planning to sell off Kurt Cobain's belongings, twelve years after his suicide in 1994. Here's more: "I'm going to have a Christie's auction....[My house] is like a mausoleum." "My Read more

Francis Bean's Dramatic Entrance

Clown reminiscent make-up aside, Courtney Love seems to want to get her act together, but somehow her past keeps catching up with her. An upcoming biography of Nirvana details the crazy drama of the day that her daughter, Francis Bean, was born. It's disturbing, to say the least. Page Six reports: In "Nirvana - The Biography," author Everett True describes how Cobain and Love both ended up at Read more
