The man who appeared as a naked baby on the iconic cover of Nirvana's Nevermind has spoken for the first time about his bizarre fame.
Spencer Elden was three months old when the shot of him underwater, stretching for a floating dollar bill, was taken for the platinum-selling album.
He told MTV News: "It's kind of creepy that so many people have seen me naked. I feel like I'm the world's biggest porn star."
Elden, now a 17-year-old high school pupil, revealed his parents were paid $200 for allowing him to be shot by a photographer friend.
He added: "It's kind of cool, knowing that I've been on an album cover, but I feel pretty normal about it because growing up, I've always known I was the Nirvana baby. It never really struck me like, 'Oh, s**t, that's me on the cover.
"It's always just been whatever for me. At the time, my parents didn't know who Nirvana was. No one really knew who they were. And then all of a sudden, it took off, and I just happened to be on the album cover."
