The New Face Of Chanel: Frances Bean Cobain

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
