A controversial woman in the world of rock in the late 20th century to today. A washed-out bleach blonde who had her
day yet still has to be in the limelight just to let you know she'
s here. She was married to Kurt Cobain of grunge superstars Nirvana and after he committed suicide on April 8, 1994 and Nirvana imploded, she read his suicide note tearfully in public, calling him an '
asshole'. Then shortly thereafter, she laid
Percy Farrel of Porno for Pyros AND Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails and backtalked about how bad in bed they were. Before she met and married Kurt, she worked as a stripper and even gave head to Ted Nugent when she was a preteen. She has a very long and
dirty past, and this starfucker reputation has made her a
target of
bad media attention. Still, she put it on herself.
She gets blamed by some for Kurt's
death but I don't think she did it. She fronted the band Hole, which was so-so at best, playing
guitar and (ahem) singing? Then she went solo and got into legal issues with the Nirvana survivors. To this day she riles up concertgoers at her shows to chant 'The Foo Fighters are FAAAAGGGGSSSS!' which shows her gross lack of class and extreme immaturity. Always looking for attention, she even got up on Dave Letterman's desk and revealed her
tits to him on TV. A total no class whore.
1. Courtney Love is the Yoko Ono of alternative rock. Yoko got blamed for the Beatles' breakup and John's
death, but the others deny it. After all, she worked with them to compile and finally release the Beatles Anthology project which came out in 1995. Still, the rumors and conspiracy talk go on...
2. Courtney Love may have inspired other women to pick up a
guitar, which is cool. But God knows there are SERIOUS female rock'n'rollers who DON'T play the 'sexual image/dumb bitch' bullshit (
Go-Go's, Bangles, L7,
Heart, Plasticines, Shonen Knife, etc.) that have
talent and praise who need to be recognized. And Courtney Love with her stupid antics gives ALL these lady rockers a very ugly name. Disgraceful.
3. The pioneering Go-Go's are now in the Hall of Fame, and so are
Heart and Joan Jett, women rockers. Shonen Knife is getting quite an audience now after paying their dues since 1981. Others like Julianne Hatfield and Sheryl Crow also keep their lives private and don't push this sexual angle, they let their
music do the talking. That's why these female rockers are still around and Courtney Love is a used-up has-been starfucker broad that nobody really wants to have or be with. She's
history.
