I must admit I don’t get this. Karl Lagerfeld is renowned for discovering new faces, and and his newest face I am sure will be his most talked-about yet. The 74-year-old designer with Chanel wants to sign up Frances Bean Cobain, daughter of Courtney Love. Despite still being at school, 15-year-old Frances, whose father was rock star Kurt Cobain – famous for grunge rock anthems such as Smells Like Teen Spirit before his suicide in 1994 – has already appeared in a number of upmarket American magazines. "She’s only young, but there’s a lot of interest in Frances," says a friend. "She is incredibly pretty and has the most perfect porcelain skin. "She and her mother are having talks with Karl about Frances appearing in his next ad campaign. I don’t mean to be "mean" but she is really not incredibly pretty at all! Let’s be serious here. I would have to say the only reason Chanel is interested in her is because her father was Kurt Cobain. If she was just an ordinary girl she would not have a "snowball’s chance in Hell" of being the new face of Chanel. Source

You are 100% right, Frances does NOT have Chanel looks.

I have to agree that I don’t think she’s incredibly pretty. However if it’s something she wants then whatever. Hopefully she doesn’t feel like she HAS to do these things because her parents were famous.
