While non-sexualised images of infants are not usually thought of as child pornography under US law, the fact the baby is reaching for money makes the minor seem вЂњlike a sex workerвЂќ, according to the papers. Legal papers filed in California claim: вЂњThe images exposed SpencerвЂ™s intimate body part and lasciviously displayed SpencerвЂ™s genitals from the time he was an infant to the present day.вЂќ It also alleges his parents were told there would be a sticker over his genitals. Mr Elden says his parents never signed a release to authorise the use of his image, and says the fact he is pictured naked constitutes child pornography. They were paid $200 and went to eat tacos afterwards. My parents took me down there, apparently they blew in my face to stimulate my gag reflex, dunked me in, took some pictures, and pulled me out. вЂњSo his friend the photographer Kirk WeddleВ called him and said, вЂDoВ you want to make some money today and throw your kid in the pool?вЂ™ And he agreed. He told the Guardian in 2015: вЂњI was four months old and my dad was attending art school at the time, and his friends would often ask for help with their projects. He has previously recreated the cover as an older child and an adult to mark NevermindвЂs 10th, 20th and 25th anniversaries. But itвЂ™s always the record labels that make the money.The estate of Kurt Cobain is among those being sued (Photo: Sebastien Vuagnat/Getty) He feels that everybody made money off it and he didnвЂ™t. Weddle told the publication: вЂњI used to think, вЂMan, when that kid is 16 heвЂ™s gonna hate my guts!вЂ™ He doesnвЂ™t, but heвЂ™s conflicted about the picture. Weddle told the Guardian in 2019 that he was still in contact with Elden. The lawsuit alleged Cobain initially agreed to have a sticker censor Elden's genitals on the album cover, but no stickers were used.Д®lden recreated the image as an adult in 2016, and has 'Nevermind' tattooed on his chest. Universal Music Group, Weddle and a publicist for Love did not immediately respond to requests for comment.ДЄccording to the lawsuit, Elden's parents never received any compensation for the image shot by Weddle, who was a friend of Elden's father. 'Defendants intentionally commercially marketed SpencerвЂ™s child pornography and leveraged the shocking nature of his image to promote themselves and their music at his expense,' he alleged in the lawsuit, which was filed on Tuesday.Д®lden, now 30, is asking for $150,000 in compensation from each of several defendants, including Universal Music Group, photographer Kirk Weddle, Nirvana drummer and rock legend Dave Grohl, Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic and Courtney Love, the widow of Nirvana's lead singer Kurt Cobain, who died in 1994. 'Nevermind' is one of the best-selling albums of all time, having sold over 30 million copies worldwide. In a lawsuit filed in federal court in California, Spencer Elden alleged he has suffered lifelong damages from the image used on the album's cover, which depicted him swimming naked toward a dollar bill pierced with a fish hook. Aug 25 (Reuters) - A man who appeared as a naked baby on the cover of Nirvana's 1991 'Nevermind' album has filed a lawsuit against the surviving members of the influential band, alleging the image was child sexual exploitation.
