Kurt Cobain Would Die For A Pair of Doc Martens

The image of the late, great Kurt Cobain is being used in a Doc Marten shoe advertisement running in the UK. The shoe company has launched the ad in promotion of its AirWair line, which also features other dead rock stars, including Joe Strummer of the Clash, Joey Ramone of The Ramones, and Sid Vicious of The Sex Pistols.

A rep for the plastic surgery addict says,

“Courtney had no idea this was taking place and would never have approved such a use. She thinks it’s outrageous that a company is allowed to commercially gain from such a despicable use of her husband’s picture. It does appear that in the UK what Dr. Martens has done is allowed. Courtney did not, and would not, approve of such a use of Kurt’s name and likeness.”

Face the facts Courtney, you’re just pissed because you didn’t make any money from his name this time. You’re nothing but trash and the widow to a once a great man and no one wants anything to do with you unless to ridicule you and your botched plastic surgery.
