While some women, like Anita Hill, are fighting against becoming sex objects, others like Anna Nicole Smith can’t wait to get their clothes off. While the cast members of ”The Real World” revel in the media spotlight, the glare of publicity proves too much for Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, the definitive rock icon of the 90s.
