Judge Orders Courtney Love To Pay $115,000 For Missing Jewels

Oct 20, 2011 10:45 AM

CourtneyLoveJewels230.jpgCourtney Love is pulling a Lindsay Lohan -- but on a much larger scale!

A Manhattan judge just found Love responsible for $115,000 worth of jewelry that went missing last year.

Love borrowed baubles from celeb jeweler Jacob & Co. for "The New Yorkers for Children Benefit" at Cirpriani's restaurant last year, including two gold diamond chains, a gold cuff bracelet and gold diamond pave hoop earrings.

The chains were $34,200 each, the earrings $45,500 and the bracelet was worth $70,000. Love signed a document saying she knew the value of the jewels.

Love claimed that after the event, she put the items in a bag and gave them to the staff at the Mercer Hotel (where she was staying) with instructions to return the bag to Jacob. She claims the staff returned the bracelet, but lost the chains and earrings.

At the time, Love filed a police report (she maintains that she does not have the jewels.) But Jacob didn't believe her, and filed a lawsuit soon after saying she is responsible and demanding that she pay $113,000 plus interest.

“Her detention and retention of the chain and the earrings are wrong,” said the company’s filing.

Now, a judge has sided with Jacob, and Love must pay him the money.

Courtney Love On Her First Intimate Moments With Kurt Cobain

Oct 11, 2011 09:30 AM

LoveCorgan230.jpgThe latest issue of New York Magazine has an excerpt from the upcoming book I want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, and who better to chat about Kurt Cobain's famous "Smells Like Teen Spirit" video than Courtney Love?

Love told the authors about the first time she and Cobain slept together, at a Days Inn in Chicago:

    "We were having our first post-coital moment, and we're watching MTV and the video [Smells Like Teen Spirit] came on. I pulled away from him, because it was his video, his moment, he was the king of the f***ing world, and he put his arm around me and pulled me closer. Which was symbolic, like, 'I'm letting you into my life. That really endeared him to me.'"

Love also reveals that, the next time she saw Cobain, at a hotel in Minneapolis, it wasn't on purpose.

    "I'd flown there to f*** Billy Corgan ... I didn't even know Nirvana were playing that night. Kurt and I wound up at the Northstar, and our daughter, Frances, was basically made that night."

How romantic.

Courtney Love Says She'd Kill Kurt Cobain If He Was Still Alive

Oct 5, 2011 12:00 PM

CourtneyLoveVF230.jpgCourtney Love still hasn't let go of anger toward deceased husband Kurt Cobain.

The 47-year-old rocker tells the new issue of Vanity Fair:

    "Mad? Ya think?! If he came back right now I’d have to kill him, for what he did to us. I’d f***ing kill him. I’d f*** him, and then I’d kill him."

Love "shouted" the words at the mag's contributing editor, says VF's article, and didn't stop there.

    "He tried to kill himself three times! ... He OD’d at least five times. I was the f***ing E.M.S. I was always sticking pins in his balls. I carried around Narcan! [a drug used to bring OD-ing heroin users back to life]."

Love then shifts from angry to sad as she talks about her now non-existent relationship with her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain. She holds Frances' diary as she talks to the reporter and expresses regret over how she raised her child.

Of course, that alone was too demure - underneath the jacket, the singer wore a sheer turtleneck that showed off her frilly black push-up bra.

Stay classy, Courtney.

Courtney Love Admits She Shot Up Heroin At Charlie Sheen's Pad

May 26, 2011 02:20 PM

love0427.jpgNot the most shocking news we've heard, but interesting nonetheless.

Courtney Love gave a revealing interview on The Fix, and the Hole singer claims she shot up heroin at a mid-90s bash at Charlie Sheen's mansion, back in the day.

Loved revealed of the day she was taken to a drug-infused Sheen party:

    "A Hollywood-connected beau took me to this star-studded party at Charlie Sheen's house in Malibu. Tom Cruise was there, and Madonna ... [singer Jennifer Linch] convinced me to shoot up. 'Come on, everyone's doing it.' So that's when my whole heroin drama began."

Kurt Cobain's widow says she finally quit heroin in 1996, "except for one incident in July 2005, where I shot myself up on purpose to kill myself," she explains. Apparently the singer threatened to jump off singer Lenny Kravitz's roof, until NYPD arrived on the scene. Whew!

Now Love says she's totally drug-free, "more or less", but she still has a glass of rose every now and again.
