Nonetheless, Elden, who has “Nevermind” tattooed across his chest, shared some thoughts about being a really famous baby.

Nevermind is the second studio album by the American rock band Nirvana, released on September 24, 1991, by DGC Records. The record’s cover famously shows a naked baby swimming with a dollar bill dangling on a fishing hook ahead of him.

Every aspect of the pioneering record was unprecedented, all the way from the challenging themes that the band tackle on the LP to what might be the most controversial facet of the record the album sleeve. That naked baby is now a fully clothed man named Spencer Elden, and last Saturday he recreated the iconic photo for the album’s 25th anniversary.

Spencer Elden, the person who portrayed the baby on the cover of Nirvanas iconic second album Nevermind, is suing the band for child pornography and.
