FTFA: The New York Post said Love has enlisted the help of lawyers, private investigators and forensic accountants in an effort to find out what happened to the money late grunge rocker Kurt Cobain left Love and their daughter Frances Bean...

..."We will be filing civil cases... within the next 30 days."


Sorry, Courtney, but drug dealers and paid assassins usually don't give refunds.

"We are also working with local and federal authorities. ... Many of those (involved with) the estate's coffers mismanaged, stole and outright looted it shamelessly."

I'm sure they were such trustworthy drug dealers and such before they were put in charge of the money ;)

Many of those (involved with) destroying Kurt Cobain and then using his image, likeness and music to make millions - including my client Courtney Love - stole and outright looted it shamelessly."

I feel so bad for that kid, having this worthless junkie street trash as your mother. Courtney Love should have been dead in a gutter by 1992. Unfortunately, she met Kurt Cobain.

Is she sure she didn't wind up blowing the money on "vitamins?"

The Twitter feed is a glimpse into drug-addled retardation: Link (no idea if it's real or an alt)

Quite true, but I think their idea of "broke", is quite different than ours. All they really have to do, is take it easy for a while on the much needed $10k a month beauty treatments for Courtney, and Pinto, or Lima or whatever the hell her name is Bean, and let some royalty checks build up.

Also, if she sells whatever is left of the catalog, or manages it wisely, they'll be in a financial situation most of us only dream of in under a year.

Cue them tiny violins.

seriously didn't the estate of Kurt Cobain outsell Elvis the past 2 years as the number 1 dead earning celebrity, and those amounts were in the mega-millions, how does one even begin to blow/lose that kind of money

I agree with the tiny violins

 
baka-san [TotalFark] 2009-04-08 07:33:38 AM  
Wouldn't surprise me, she has been so out of it for so long.

Cobain never broke the top 10, Elvis is still the king.

"I have never seen such greed and moral turpitude. This case is going to make Bernard Madoff look warm and fuzzy,"

I'm sure the thousands of people who lost their life's savings to Madoff will be terribly upset that a crackwhore might actually have to work for a living.

I heard 7 years ago she was worth 500 mil. Right after she sold a house to Paul McCartney that George Harrison died in.

It's really farked up considering Cobain was living broke and under a bridge just 20 years ago...

We don't know the real circumstances of this story...
Love could be claiming millions are missing when she has it somewhere...

It's mentioned in one of the books about his life that Love is supposed to have an extremely high IQ and be a master manipulator.
She's a known drug addict; yet this could part of her master plan. Maybe she has done drugs in front of people; she could be acting most of the other times. Remember, she is an accomplished actress who has won several awards including Golden Globes.
If she's viewed as a mindless druggie, she can get away with a lot of shiat.

Consider the kind of wealth she has managed to acquire.

PEoPLE PLEASE

LEAVE COURTNEY ALONE SHE DID NOTHING WRONG



HA HA JUST KIDDING

I HOPE THERE IS SOME CASH FOR THE KID, SHE WILL NeED IT FOR THE THERAPY

 
BigMax 2009-04-08 09:48:50 AM  
So looting millions from a crack whore is worse than looting billions from charities?

And I suppose Courtney's latest hangnail is worse than starvation in Darfur.

Halfwit lawyer should stick to the case at hand and not make offensively stupid comparisons.

Next, she'll call it Courtney-gate (or Hole-gate)

/someday, I will ache like Courtney aches.

Do you think Kurt Cobain is taking violin lessons in heaven?

 
chaoswolf 2009-04-08 03:04:59 PM  
I really dig that Einstein was on that list of dead wealth makers.

 
Kanemano 2009-04-08 03:16:11 PM  
I really don't care about Cortney Love, but I love how people who invested $13.00 in a CD, think that they have more of a right to an artist than his wife.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die
Hearts gone cold and hands are tied
Why'd you have to go and let it die

I wish the Seattle Police would reopen the Cobain case again so this whore can get arrested and removed from society once and for all

How in the hell can Cobain be generating all that money? His band had one decent album. One. How many people are still buying copies of that album? I thought no one bought music anymore. That can't be right.

Also merchandising, video games, book, movie and song rights, radio royalties and probably some things I left out.

She probably makes shiat in on record sales in comparison to the other things.

She should try looking up her nose for the money...no doubt it's in there along with her $1 million trust fund she blew when she was 18.

In her veins most likely.

Is that Madonna or Love in the pic?
