Courtney Love Biography |
|||||||||||||
| For most of her life, Courtney traveled around with her family living mostly in hippie communes. After receiving a trust fund from her grandmother in 1984, Courtney decided to do a little traveling on her own visiting places such as Ireland, Japan, Taiwan, and Liverpool. Upon returning to the United States, Courtney began singing in music groups in the Bay Area. Soon enough, she caught the attention of movie director Alex Cox, who cast her in the supporting role of Nancy's best friend in the film, Sid & Nancy. With no money and no job, Courtney tried to become a stripper but none of the local clubs would hire her because was "too fat". So she headed back to LA in 1989 and formed the band Hole. Their debut album called Pretty on the Inside didn't burn up the charts, but it did establish them as viable musicians. After only a short period of marriage, Courtney's husband's life began spiraling out of control and his drug abuse (allegedly) led him to suicide with a shotgun blast to the head in 1994. It took a while, but Courtney managed to survive through the ordeal and released her new album only one week after her husband's unfortunate death. Once again Courtney endured the pain and continued to make a name for herself. She decided to take up acting once again and starred in blockbuster movies such as Feeling Minnesota, The People vs. Larry Flynt and Man on the Moon, starring opposite Jim Carrey. Courtney's love life has not been flailing since her husband's tragic death either. She has been linked to rockers Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins, Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, Evan Dando of The Lemonheads, actor Edward Norton, and is currently attached to music executive Jim Barber. | |||||||||||||
