Nirvana photographed outside of the MTV VMA'S 30 years ago today. Kurt and Courtney were in a tent backstage. Axl Rose walked by with his girlfriend and bodyguards. "Hey Axl, will you be the godfather of our child?" Courtney shouted sarcastically. Axl ignored her but turned to Kurt, who was bouncing Frances on his knee, and leaned down near his face. He yelled, "You shut your bitch up, or I'm taking you down to the pavement!" The idea that anyone could control Courtney was so laughable that a giant smile came to Kurt's face. He turned to Courtney and ordered, in a robot-like voice: "Okay, bitch. Shut up!" This brought a snicker to everyone within earshot...Except for Axl.
