Courtney Love Loses What’s Left Of Kurt
People cannot stop robbing Courtney Love. First someone allegedly ran willy-nilly with Kurt Cobain’s Social Security number, buying mansions in New Jersey and whatnot, and now she’s saying someone has swiped what’s left of his ashes, along with jewelry, clothes and what remaining Cobain memorabilia she’s yet to sell herself. Love claims she’s “suicidal” over the loss, a phrase I’m sure her daughter appreciates being thrown around.
Love believes a former friend is responsible for swiping Kurt’s remains, which were stored in a pink bear-shaped handbag and hidden in a wardrobe at her Hollywood home.
She now claims to be suicidal as a result of the theft: “I can’t believe anyone would take Kurt’s ashes from me. I find it disgusting and right now I’m suicidal. If I don’t get them back I don’t know what I’ll do.”
Most of Cobain’s ashes were originally scattered at a New York Buddhist temple and in the Wishkah river in Washington state. However, Love says she kept some for herself, hidden away in a location that was a closely guarded secret until now.
“They were all I had left of him,” Love said to the News of the World. “Who has their husband’s ashes stolen?”
They wanted to be at a Buddhist temple, Courtney! Not sitting around in a teddy bear in your wardrobe, listening to you scream at people for almost fifteen years. Maybe they got up and left.
