Frances Bean Cobain is the new face of Chanel 2008?

Apparently Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain's 15 year old daughter will be the new face of Chanel. Can you guys believe it?

Quote:
Remember Frances Bean Cobain -- the daughter of Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain? The rock world's most famous offspring is widely rumored to be the front runner for the face of Chanel's 2008 campaign -- and she's only 15!

I had no idea she was even a model, but apparently Frances Bean is "overwhelmed" by the opportunity and ready for "what the Chanel experience may offer."

Not that she's unattractive, but honestly, Frances Bean is the last person I'd ever expect to be the face of Chanel. (OK, after your weird-looking neighbor who confuses Crocs with "couture.") Are they just looking for anyone young and mildly famous?

This is her, for anyone that doesn't know.

She's a beautiful girl, and an interesting choice if true.

This makes me sick,all these offsprings getting covers,publicity.etc just because of who their parents are,blah.There are many more worth while celebs and especially good models who should get the job instead.

Of course it's BS. This rumor originates from the same retarded, attention-seeking blog (which has now been "down for maintenance" for a week - shocker! ) that started those slanderous rumors about Coco Rocha and Karlie Kloss.

I will say this, any 15 year old that can pull of heels like that gets my vote for fashion spokesperson....just not for Chanel.
