Nothing reminds us of how small the pop-culture world is like the revelation that Spencer Elden, best known as the naked baby chasing a dollar bill on the cover of Nirvana’s Nevermind, is now an employee of Shepard Fairey. We can only imagine what red-and-blue image the folks at Obey have in store for their new intern.
Besides making us feel positively ancient, this news has us wondering what happened to some of our favorite ’90s alternative kids. MTV checked in on Elden, the Goo Goo Dolls cover baby and a few others back in 2007. But we’re still in the dark about the boy who played the title character in Pearl Jam’s disturbing “Jeremy” video, Blind Melon’s famous bee girl, and a whole lot of others. After the jump, we’ve made our best guesses as to the how they ended up.
Bee girl
Where you know her from: The music video for Blind Melon’s 1993 video “No Rain” and the cover of their self-titled 1992 album.
Where is she now?: She owns a costume shop in Minnesota and maintains the same active dream life she had as a child. (Just kidding! In real life, Heather DeLoach is all grown up, quirkily pretty, and still acting.)

shouldn’t King Jeremy the Wicked be ruling the world? :p
wow, you’re totally at a loss for content, eh?
This article makes no sense.
eh, not really funny at all.
Absolute waste of time. Written-on-an-iPhone-while-waiting-for-the-bus-stupid
Wow, that was pretty lame. I was impressed you found the Bee Girl–after that, total nosedive. Thanks for the waste of time!

this sucks. thought it was gonna be the real thing.
This does suck. Rope us in with the Bee Girl and then nothing… not even amusing commentary. Waste o’ time. Glad I didn’t get all the way through it.
Worst waste of time. Neither informative, nor funny.
Wow, i thought this was going to be interesting. Couldn’t have been more wrong. You can’t just make things up!
not to be harsh, but what everyone else said. You’re better than this, you guys. And ….if you’re not….don’t print it!
wtf
So is Judy Berman still writing for this site, or did someone finally realize the girl is completely without talent, wit or ability and can her ass?
So, yeah… this has to be the most vacant article I’ve ever read. There is an absolute lack of actual content.
+1 to what everybody’s saying here. What a waste of time. Shit writing,no vision, not even remotely funny.
This really blows. There is absolutely nothing to it and I’m frankly shocked that it was posted. Completely pointless.
Boooooo. sucked.
Wow… seems like you have a lot of time to kill. But I don’t, and this has been a total waste of time. Terrible article.

This still sucks even more than a year after it was written. It would have been really cool if you actually tracked the people down, but you didn’t. The only cool things about it were the link to the Nirvana Baby article and the info on the Bee Girl.
