We always think of how cool it would be to have rockstar parents, but for those who actually do? It's a little different. On Saturday (March 30) Sean Lennon shared a personal post on Instagram about how hard it was growing up with constant comparisons to his dad, John, and mom, Yoko Ono.
"On @fallontonight wearing @kyosukekunimoto I have struggled all my life w people telling me I’m ‘trying’ to look like dad, or mum. That’s why I rarely wear these type of glasses, but they’re actually just better on my face," he wrote. "It’s funny, but I promise I don’t ‘try’ to look like my parents, it just happens. Especially when I dress cool because they had epic style, so it is often unintentionally evocative. Which glasses do y’all prefer on me?"
Frances Bean Cobain quickly responded to the post, expressing her own qualms with fashion choices that could draw comparisons to her parents, Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. "You look wonderful! I do the same thing re sunglasses, I try not to wear those friggin oval frames often, but i when i do, i know they look good on mah face, so, what can we do," she said. "Embrace the similarities and celebrate the differences, i suppose !"
Lennon appreciated the kind words and let Cobain know. "Aw thanks you’re so sweet!" he gushed.
