Frances Bean speaks out on loss of Kurt Cobain on 30th anniversary of death: “I wish I could have known my dad”
Frances Bean Cobain, the daughter of the late grunge icon Kurt Cobain, has shared a moving post on the 30th anniversary of the musician’s death.She took to her Instagram page earlier today (April 5) to share a series of images of her father, and write a lengthy caption about how his death has impacted her throughout her life.The musician rose to prominence at the end of the ‘80s as the frontman and guitarist of Nirvana – alongside Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic – and went on to become one of the most iconic figures in rock, particularly in the ‘90s grunge scene. He died by suicide on April 5, 1994, when his daughter, whom he had with Courtney Love, was only one year old.Now, exactly three decades since his tragic death, Frances Bean – now aged 31 – has shared an emotive tribute to her late parent, and discussed how she wishes she “could have known” him.“30 years ago my dad’s life ended,” she wrote, sharing an image of the musician’s hands, taken by R.E.M frontman (and her godfather) Michael Stipe, followed by a couple of photos of them together.

Sinéad O’Connor‘s estate has called out Donald Trump for using her music during his political rallies.A joint statement was created between the Irish music legend’s estate and record label Chrysalis, demanding Trump to stop using her music immediately.

Lily Allen “incensed” by “spineless” tributes to Sinéad O’Connor
Lily Allen has said that she is “incensed” by the “spineless” tributes coming in for Sinéad O’Connor after the singer’s death, suggesting that the same people would not have stood up for her while she was alive.The musician and activist died at the age of 56 last week (July 26), after being found unresponsive in her London home, prompting a wave of tributes from fans and artists including Garbage, Billy Corgan, Michael Stipe and Ice-T.Best known for her rendition of ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’, O’Connor was outspoken in her political and religious views, most infamously protesting sexual abuse in the Catholic Church live on SNL by tearing up a photo of the pope in 1992.Allen, however, has since expressed frustration with the apparent hypocrisy of positive tributes shared for the singer.It’s hard not to feel incensed when there are so many people posting about Sinead and how fearless she was, people who would never in a million years align themselves with with anybody who stood for something or had anything remotely controversial to say. It’s so spineless.

got a restraining order against John Oates — his blue-eyed-soul brother in the best-selling duo in pop history — it seemed as if the pair that ruled the ’80s with their big hair and even bigger hooks had shockingly lost all of “that lovin’ feelin’” for each other.But as wild as it first seemed, this was not about physical protection — this was strictly a business move to block Oates from selling his share in the pair’s Whole Oats Enterprises to music publishing company Primary Wave.And while Oates can’t discuss the ongoing legal battle amid the breakup that had many of us vacillating between “I Can’t Go for That” and “Say It Isn’t So,” he’s still singing his longtime partner’s praises — even as he begins the next act of his career with “Reunion,” his new solo album, out Friday.“Daryl’s voice was the one that was on all the hits … And you know, listen, Daryl’s one of the greatest singers of all time,” Oates told The Post outside of the former site of the Gaslight Cafe, the Greenwich Village coffeehouse where the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame duo played their first New York show together in the late ’60s — when they were both in different groups.“And so when you’re with one of the greatest singers of all time, of course you’re not going to be the frontman.
