Kurt Cobain is an Avatar in Guitar Hero

The widow and estate manager of Kurt Cobain (Courtney Love) approved the singer's image as an avatar for Guitar Hero. She probably thought it would be a cool way to reincarnate him (and make some more money).

But now she's mad, because the avatar is singing songs of Bon Jovi and the like. She feels this "exploits Kurt’s image in a manner anathema to the very essence of his music, spirit and essence"

I don't know what "anathema" means, but I'm guessing she doesn't have Bon Jovi on her mp3 player.

So here's my question: Who has the right to mess with a person's legacy? It's one thing for a star, say Michael Jackson, to do great and/or crazy things. And to create their own image in the public's eye. But what happens when they die, but their image lives on, and can be used in video games, animated movies, photoshopped into commercials, made to do things they would never have done in real life.

Have you seen any dead people reincarnated into entertainment venues? And did it change your impression of them?
