...so yea. i kind of love/hate courtney love. on one hand i suspect she might have had something to do with the death of my idol and the inspiration behind this blog, kurt cobain. on the other...well...she's just fucking cool. terribly shallow i know but i'm a sucker for a crazy lady with shit hot style. yes, she has got it wrong a few times, but haven't we all? i hate to be the one to say it but she gave a HOLE (geddit?) new meaning to 'heroin chic'. literally. the big skagrat.

so anyway i woke up this morning to hole's 'celebrity skin' (my trusty alarm tone for the last three months or so) and wondered why i hadn't yet written a contradictory blog entry about the legend that is love. i really don't know whether to champion or lampoon her (oooh lampoon, an ace word but one that i rarely find the opportunity to use in a sentence). i go through phases. i hate her when i remind myself that she used to go out with my number one celebrity crush, the devastatingly beautiful edward norton. i love her when i think about her fierce independence and her ability to stick two fingers up to...well, everyone.
having just recently had my heart ripped out, splattered up the wall, ran over by a, oh i don't know let's say for arguments sake a dark blue bmw t-reg estate, then eaten by wolves, i have to say i admire her 'independent woman' act at the moment. she would never put up with this shit! so i guess for the time being i'm in a pro-coutney phase. but enough drama, let's have a look at a few pictures so you can see exunkly what i mean, yes? cool.

i think you get the idea. courtney love, weird yet wonderful (i think?) and forever able to make an impact on music, fashion and grunge culture. no matter if you love her or hate her. but that's just my opinion...x
great post! i agree...love/hate/hate/love :)
