Kurt Cobain's Daughter Has Grown Up To Be Gorgeous

When Kurt Cobain died in 1994 at the age of 27, he left behind a musical legacy.
He also left behind Frances Bean Cobain, his only daughter with musician Courtney Love.
Fast forward more than two decades later, and his daughter is an absolutely stunning
young woman.
She inherited her parents' creative side but she's dabbled in more than just art and music.
She's even put her good looks to use and done some modeling.
Frances Bean has grown up a lot over the years — and we've got the proof.
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Frances' 16th birthday party wasn't your typical sweet 16.
In fact, her party reportedly had a suicide theme, part of a dubious honor to her late
father.
Courtney Love apparently rented out Sunset Boulevard's House of Blues for the party and
got her daughter a cake that read "Rest In Peace Childhood."
One of Frances' friends posted the party invitation online and it specified a red or black dress
code, no exceptions, with prizes given out to the partygoers who dressed the "most dead."
That's one bizarre tribute.
But then again, what else would you expect from the girl who grew up with Courtney Love
for a mom?
Speaking of which ...
All Apologies
After Cobain's death in 1994, Frances was raised solely by Love.
However, the two haven't always seen eye to eye.
At the age of 17, Frances became legally emancipated from her mother.
And apparently Love didn't handle that very well.
Love told Vanity Fair, "All I can feel is how much I love her.
I'd give anything to hear the sound of her heels walking down the hall past my bedroom."
Frances even once took out a temporary restraining order against her mom.
Although their relationship has been tumultuous through the years, it looks like they've reconciled.
They spent Christmas together in 2016 and Frances' Instagram is filled with mommy-daughter
photos.
Heart-Shaped Box
Frances is the spitting image of her father — so much so, it even shocked Cobain's former
Nirvana bandmates.
Frances told Rolling Stone that Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear came to her
house "and they had what I call the 'K.C.
Jeebies,' which is when they see me, they see Kurt.
They look at me, and you can see they're looking at a ghost.
They were all getting the K.C.
Jeebies hardcore.
Dave said, 'She is so much like Kurt."
She also inherited some of his sense of style, as well.
She even wore his wedding pajamas once for a photo shoot.
If that wasn't enough, she's also musical — which she probably gets from both parents
equally.
Come As You Are
Frances may be Cobain's kid, but she apparently didn't inherit his taste for music.
In fact, she doesn't even like her late father's band.
She told Rolling Stone that while she doesn't like her dad's music that much, there is one
song that tends to hit home with her every time she hears it:
"'Dumb' — I cry every time I hear that song.
It's a stripped-down version of Kurt's perception of himself — of himself on drugs, off drugs,
feeling inadequate to be titled the voice of a generation."
Even though she's not a Nirvana fan, she did help choose the title of Nirvana's collection
of unreleased music, as well as the cover photo.
And Frances got even more involved in the family business when she became an executive
producer for HBO's documentary, Montage of Heck.
As Cobain's only child, she was very specific with how she wanted her dad's story told.
She didn't hold back when she met with the writer, director and producer, Brett Morgen.
She remembered telling the director that she didn't want "the mythology of Kurt or the
romanticism.'"
Negative Creep
After two years of marriage, Frances filed for divorce from her husband, Isaiah Silva
in 2016.
The couple wed in a secret ceremony in June of 2014, but several months later, People
reported that Silva was requesting $300,000 a year in spousal support from Frances.
He claimed he put his career on the back burner after marrying the visual artist and needed
the financial support.
He also said Frances promised to financially help him send his young daughter from another
relationship to a private school.
About a Girl
Frances' good looks have come in handy over the years.
She's been sought after for several modeling jobs, but she's been very selective in the
ones she's chosen.
In 2008, she modeled for Harper's Bazaar and she got to play the roles of Evita, Belle
from Beauty and the Beast, and more.
The photos were stunning and one of the first photoshoots the public got to see.
In 2011, Frances modeled for Hedi Slimane in a photo collection called "Rock Diary."
In these classic black and white images, you can really see the similarities between Frances
and her late father.
Since then, Frances became the face of Marc Jacob's spring 2017 line, but she's said that
will probably be one of her final modeling gigs — at least for a while.
She told Vogue, "I don't think I'll be modeling for anybody else for a very long time — this
is 100 percent outside my comfort zone.
I wouldn't have done it with anyone other than Marc."
In Bloom
Frances has been displaying her artwork since she was 17 years old, when she debuted it
under a pseudonym in East Hollywood.
Since then, she's sold some of her dark prints online and has developed her very own website
to sell her artwork, called The Space Witch.
Whether she's taken up her father's musical mantle on a professional level or not, she's
certainly living up to his hopes for her.
"I haven't had to change really change her diapers yet.
We have a nanny to do that.
I'm just teaching her to cuss, and flip people off."
Mission accomplished.
