Spencer Elden: The 'Nirvana baby' is now a 17-year-old high school graduate!

From CNN: "... Now 17, Elden says he was paid $1,000 to re-enact the famous pool pose for photographers. Compare that to the original shoot, which paid $200.

"Stuff happens like random cool situations where I get paid $500 just to go hang out," Elden said. "People just call me up and they're like, 'Hey you're the Nirvana baby, right? Well just come and swim in my pool and we'll give you some money.' " Read more about Elden and the 1991 photo shoot..." [Link]

The photo was recreated at Rose Bowl Aquatics. It would be so cool if he were a swimmer!
