overview

Although she is perhaps most famous for being married to Kurt Cobain of Nirvana fame at the time of his suicide, Courtney Love is certainly a celebrity in her own right. Unfortunately, a lot of her celebrity stems from her frequent bouts with drugs and the police. No doubt she’s a talented singer and actress.  Her band Hole, enjoyed tremendous success with their album, “Live Through This,” which released shortly after Cobain’s death. And she garnered a Golden Globe nomination for her performance as Larry Flynt’s wife in “The People vs. Larry Flynt” in 1996.
