Kurts daughter speaks

Frances Bean Cobain has given a rare interview, in which she expressed disbelief at the public's fascination with her life.

The daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love says she hopes to break free of her parents' shadow as she nears adulthood.

Appearing in a Harper's Bazaar spread, Frances Bean spoke of her hopes and plans for the future and insisted "I'm not my parents".

Speaking about the public's interest in her life, she explained: "These people are fascinated by me, but I haven't done anything.

"If you're a big Nirvana fan a big Hole fan then I understand why you would want to get to know me, but I'm not my parents."

"People need to wait until I've done something valid with my life", said Cobain, who is considering a career in the media as a journalist or photographer.
