The baby on Nirvana's Nevermind album is 17

Remember seeing this album cover everywhere in the 90’s?
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.

Well meet the naked baby himself, Spencer Elden, now 17. So yeah, you’re old...
