Courtney Love on the cover of V Magazine (November 2006)
Love me some Courtney Love.
” She rocked out. She got glamorous. She got photographed. She toured the world. Then, on the heels of a hit record and poised to conquer Hollywood, Love somehow inexplicably went from being a hot commodity to a hot mess… .
Given her wild reputation, her somewhat antagonistic relationship with journalists, and the relative newness of her sobriety, it’s hard to know what to expect when meeting Love… . .Sobriety, as it turns out, has not dulled her edge—only sharpened it. She proves to be as funny, smart, and candid as one would expect. Spending time with Love, it’s suddenly easy to believe that certain people are simply born to be famous—though fame, in her case, has clearly proven to be a double-edged sword. T. Cole Rachel
