As Intern, Kurt Cobain's Daughter Considered A Bit Too Punk Rock
Did you know Frances Bean Cobain, Kurt's surprisingly well-adjusted daughter, is a "summer aide" at Rolling Stone? She is! Also, she's wayyy too rock and roll for the anal-retentive offices of the Wenner title. Insiders bitched to Page Six, "she doesn't get coffee for anyone . . . calls in sick all the time and wears funny outfits." First of all? She's 15. And second? Something tells me Evan Springsteen, Max Spielberg and Gus Wenner weren't fetching too many lattes last summer, either. Anyway, here are some conversation tips, courtesy a February article in People, in case she comes to collect your drink order:
- She is not her parents: "I get it, I really do, but at the same time it's creepy."
- She is not her parents: "If you're a big Nirvana fan, a big Hole fan, then I understand why you would want to get to know me, but I'm not my parents."
- Career interests: "She's thought about photography and/or journalism."
- Also: She is not her parents! "People need to wait until I've done something valid with my life."
So, basically, a fairly typical 15-year-old, except she already has Rolling Stone on her resume, and has already been savaged in Page Six. But given that her mom is Courtney Love? Something tells me she's not sweating it.
