Kurt Cobain Death: Frances Bean Cobain Discusses Life After Father’s Death
Frances Bean Cobain, the daughter of deceased Nirvana guitarist and singer Kurt Cobain, recently sat down for an interview with Rolling Stone to give a little peek into her life since her father's passing 21 years ago.
She expressed some resentment for what was construed as "abandonment" after her father left her, especially in the manner that he did.
But she's also had time to gain some perspective since Kurt's death back in April 1994.
"Kurt got to the point where he eventually had to sacrifice every bit of who he was to his art, because the world demanded it of him," she said. "I think that was one of the main triggers as to why he felt he didn't want to be here and everyone would be happier without him."
Frances Bean, 22, also revealed that she is not much of a Nirvana fan, nor was she interested in the grunge scene. She even comically apologized to promotional people, including Universal, for the comment. But she did say she liked the tracks "Dumb" and "Territorial Pissings," expounding on the latter.
"I would have felt more awkward if I'd been a fan. I was around 15 when I realized he was inescapable," she said.
Frances Bean has been working as an executive producer on the documentary "Montage of Heck," which features a look into Kurt Cobain's life, through his own words and avoids all the rumors and speculations.
"I don't want the mythology of Kurt or the romanticism," she said, referring to how she wanted the documentary to be made. "Even though Kurt died in the most horrific way possible, there is this mythology and romanticism that surrounds him, because he's 27 forever."
She also opened up about how former Nirvana band members seem to see a lot of Kurt in herself, referring to how she does things just like her father would have done them.
