Trent Reznor (1995 - sourced above) - “I thought I was around someone who was a victim and somebody who could use a friend, and what I was around was a very good manipulator and a careerist, someone not to be underestimated.”
** Follow up - In reaction to this she started a 20 year rampage of talking about how small his dick was and implied that he was using her, and impliedthat he’d indirectly supported rape during his shows (ctrl/cmd + f - “trent”). She also alluded to in her book that he used her - again in a dramatic telling of events (Click on page 198).
** Tori Amos also indirectly, then later directly admitted to dedicating her song ‘Professional Widow’ to Courtney (Edit - misread). Tori Amos’s fans speculate that Professional Widow is most likely about Courtney Love and the only person out of the two to make his chronic dislike of Courtney public is Trent. A good example can be found here (ctrl/cmd + f - “malicious”). The full back story, collected and told by an Amos fan with more access to crucial info, can be found here (ctrl/cmd + f - “courtney” then read the section added). Starfuckers Inc, which features an accurate depiction of Courtney, in an allusion to this, was also written by Reznor.
Russell Crowe (2002 - sourced above + rough, bunched up transcript from bad html / if you copy + paste the whole thing into a blank doc you can see it - ctrl/cmd + f - “courtney”)
- “She was going through kind of a hard time. I’m a gentle soul, so we sat down and found a way for her to express what she was feeling, which was writing it down. And she got to the point where what she was writing was really upsetting.(…) I always had a lot of time for her until earlier this year when she kind of verbally attacked a really good friend of mine, so now I see her in a different light. (…) And also the fact that she didn’t come out and say, "No, it wasn’t a sexual relationship” until 10 or 11 months later. That bothered me. She got pregnant and had a miscarriage or something, so it was printed that it must be my child, right? She didn’t come out and say it wasn’t possible since there was no sexual relationship.”
** Follow up - She also tried to force him to ‘apologize’ for saying this and attempted to victimize herself by saying that she felt like a “sexual pariah.” It’s a cheap attempt she used to force him using emotional blackmail to win sympathy points (ctrl/cmd + f - “pariah”). It unfortunately may have worked. She also took this anecdote about what happened and twisted it to mean something romantic. You can find evidence of that here.
When you’re planting false pregnancy stories to force men to stay with you (1), stalking them (2), fighting their girlfriends (Crowe’s and Barbers - both linked), and trapping them using the same damsel in distress methods that caught you your last big celebrity exploit (see above), it’s obvious that you’re..not..actually..interested..in..love.
What you’re interested in is the bottom line - Money and Exposure.
Kurt was just one of many she attempted to exploit. Now with MOH’s promotion, despite throwing him under the bus for 20 years post mortem, she’s suddenly circled back to say things like, “I would’ve wanted to have 2.5 kids with him.”
Hold up, gold-digger.
You don’t say that about someone who wore you ragged with their misanthropy and who was a shit father in comparison to a man you dumped for a movie roleand who you accused of fraud in the end anyway). You also don’t say that about someone you’ve thrown under the bus and regularly exploited for headlines either. Nevertheless someone you regularly abused for the entire length of your marriage.
What’s interesting is that you can’t even say that this some sort of misogynistic attack on women. In reality men are capable of the same thing. The problem is that you don’t hear anything about it. While it’s misogynistic to expect womento be gold diggers, it isn’t misogynistic to say that the ones that are, especially ones that believe death make good headlines, are exploitative and abusive pieces of trash.
Opposed to..strangely..chill people like this that are open to their partners about wanting to only use them for their money, Courtney prefers to pretend she doesn’t to continue to image build.
The sad thing is is that she’s never been a household name. Her notoriety has amounted to valuing short of a plastic surgery broken socialite suffering from a mid-life crisis"
