RYAN LOCHTE RECREATES NEVERMIND COVER

By: 8 February 2013 16 Comments

Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte recently decided to recreate the cover to Nirvana’s classic Nevermind, which originally depicted a naked baby swimming towards a dollar bill on a fishing hook. The project is part of ESPN the Magazine’s debut “Music” issue, which will feature more album cover recreations when it hits newsstands today. Source

  • Jay said:

    Is it just me, or does this seem almost sacrilege? Is this suppose to be art? As the cover to Nirvana’s album the pic had a meaning. This is just a dumb re-creation. Is he such a fame whore that he feels he needs to do this? Ryan is such a tool. He was a baby at the Olympics and he is now showing he will do anything “to be cool”.

    The water looks cool, but that’s about it. It loses it’s appeal when it’s not a baby chasing the almighty Uncle Sam American dollar.

    The baby’s junk was bigger.

    No way Courtney’s gonna want any money in return or anything like that. #Jeah!”

    Grill or no grill, as a fellow Gator this makes my day.

  • satan said:

    I guess the water was cold and that’s why no penis in the pic. well, that’s really a shame. it would make this cover a lot more rocking.

    This cover is almost as boring as watching this goofbag swim.

  • Cobainsweater said:

    You can tell he probably had no concept of what he was trying to recreate, as he’s superimposed looking *overtop* of the dollar bill.

    Wait to knock that one out of the park.

    lmao @ SuperSG^

    As for this picture… I think that’s a pretty accurate depiction of Ryan and his motivations in life. I think ESPN was bein’ sneaky…
