Cobain's Daughter Throws 'Suicide-Themed' Sweet 16

Every once in a while, real life turns out to be in such bad taste that even the folks at Fox might not try to imitate it -- as evidenced by word that Frances Bean Cobain, daughter of the late Nirvana leader Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, threw herself a "suicide-themed" Sweet 16 party earlier this month.

The little scamp pulled out all the stops for the shindig, hiring Mindless Self-Indulgence to provide the soundtrack, offering slices of a cemetery-silhouette birthday cake and hosting a "who can look most dead" contest. We're not sure which one of those parenting books suggested encouraging a kid to mock a father's death so openly, but we're just happy that it wasn't published in time for JFK Junior to throw himself a birthday soiree at the Dallas Book Depository.
