A federal court has dismissed a lawsuit alleging the cover art of Nirvana's 1991 album 'Nevermind' constituted child pornography. A judge ruled that Spencer Elden, shown on the cover, filed his complaint after the 10-year statute of limitations expired.
A federal court in California has dismissed a lawsuit alleging that the cover artwork of rock band Nirvana’s 1991 album “Nevermind” constituted child pornography. Spencer Elden, 31, who appeared naked on the album cover as a baby, sued the band over alleged “commercial child sexual exploitation.” However, his lawsuit was dismissed on Friday when a judge ruled that Elden had filed his complaint after the 10-year statute of limitations had expired.
” The lawsuit alleged that Elden was sexualized because the image of the naked baby grabbing at the dollar bill made the baby resemble “a sex worker.” Elden has recreated the image at times during his adulthood, but he also suggested in interviews that he felt uncomfortable about the album cover’s popularity. In 2007, he told the UK’s Sunday Times that he found it “kind of creepy that many people have seen me naked … I feel like the world’s biggest porn star.
