Sure looks like Courtney Love is hitting the drugs again...

She's such an easy target.

 

I had always thought she was such an asshole. She showed up at one of my band's rehearsals once a super long time ago, and you just couldn't get her to shut up. She was at once engrossing and repulsing.

 

Therefore, I never had all that much sympathy for her until I read an interview of her in Rolling Stone a while back, and realized that's she's had a pretty tough life. I don't remember specifics of the article, but she came across as much more likable.

I don't know much about her. I enjoyed her work in 200 Cigarettes... One of my clients turned me on to a copy of one of her albums and I was shocked to find it had a cover of one of my favorite Young Marble Giants songs. I gave her some kinda props on that. (Didn't stop me from giving away the albu, I don't think. At least I haven't seen it around in years. The rest of the album didn't do much for me.)

 

Having seen the fury directed at Yoko Ono for all the reasons people came up with to hate her (none of which cut much of anything with me since I actually paid some attention to what was going on and knew a lot of the back story as I was a big Lennon fan in his early solo period), I wasn't surprised to see the anger directed at Love before and after Cobain's death.

 

That said, she seems pretty messed up at times and much of what I've heard leads me to believe that she might be a little, shall we say, overly self-involved. Most of the 'personal experience with Courtney' stories I've heard -- but not all -- made her sound more than a little difficult. (But, that said, I've actually heard from a couple people who met her here or there and were surprised that she was nice to them, so, you know, we all have our different aspects, eh?)

Is it possible that the color is thoroughly artificial, i.e., make-up? It is only a picture, afterall, hence, it could be faked any number of ways (for publicity?).

 

I hope for her sake it's all a ruse. I've have seriously seen healthier-looking skin tone on corpses. She needs major help in all departments, if it's real.

 

No cruelty intended at all, but it's pretty shocking.
