A new documentary about Hole drummer Patty Schemel revealed some rare vintage footage of Kurt Cobain, Courtney Love and their daughter Frances Bean. In it, we see what seems like an unfinished duet between Cobain and Love, as well as footage of Cobain playing around with baby Bean. Check out the video below.
This week President Obama was asked a very important question, “Kanye or Jay-Z?” We’ve got the answer to that question below. Also, Frances Bean Cobain reacted to her mother’s (Courtney Love) ranting tweets about her and Dave Grohl canoodling in the back of car. All that and more, below.
Courtney Love is at it agains, only this time, she’s also bad mouthing her daughter Frances Bean Cobain. Last night on her private Twitter account, Courtney Love accused Dave Grohl of making a move on Frances Bean, claiming that ‘his hands were all over her’ in the back of some anonymous car, and that he has a sick sex obsession with Kurt Cobain.
Courtney Love is attacking muppets now. TMZ reports that Love believes Kermit the Frog and his gang of Muppet friends ‘raped’ the memory of her late husband and former Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain by using his song ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ in their 2011 movie, without her permission.
Surprise—turns out that Courtney Love of Hole isn’t the best tenant in the world to rent a home to (gasp!). Can you believe it? Gosh, if you can’t trust her, who can you trust? Because, as it turns out, if you rent a home to Courtney Love with strict instructions that she cannot change the interiors, Love will do only one thing—set the interiors on fire and burn them down.
Do we even have to pretend to be surprised by this, or can we just skip the shock and indignation part and just go to the “yeah, this makes sense” part? We can? Good. Ok, here’s the scoop: apparently Courtney Love pulled a Lindsay Lohan and swiped about $100,000 worth of jewelry from Jacob & Co.
Oh, mother of God. Since she’s never, ever had a chance to just lay it all down on the line and tell people what’s going on in her life, Courtney Love is writing a tell-all autobiography. Awesome. Just awesome, you guys. Because if there’s one thing Courtney Love hasn’t done, it’s tell everyone who will pay attention what the hell is happening in her life via a mountainous torrent of drunken and/or stoned Tweets, rambling blog posts, rambling TV interviews, rambling radio interviews, feuds with rock stars she’s slept with or swears she slept with, lawsuits with former members of Nirvana, or generally just screaming on street corners for people to please please please just pay attention to her.
Although most don’t feel sorry for those in the Hollywood spotlight, it is a bit difficult to not have some sympathy for Frances Bean Cobain. As the daughter of Nirvana frontman, Kurt Cobain and Hole frontwoman, Courtney Love, the girl hasn’t had much time to get out of a media frenzy during her entire life. With her father’s tragic suicide at two years old and her mother constantly fighting lawsuits, issues were taken to another level when custody between her grandmother and mother made headlines.
Today may, however, may be the beginning of a new chapter for Cobain as she turns 18 today and inherits a good chunk of her father’s fortune from the Nirvana franchise.
Brace yourselves—it’s time for another round of aging ‘90s rock icons to grasp the very last and desperately tenuous shreds of just-barely pop-culture relevance: big black hole of dignity Courtney Love and “I’m-a-difficult-ass-therefore-I’m-an-artist” Billy Corgan are currently engaged in a slapfight on, of course, Twitter.
