Courtney Love Talks NYC

Say what you will about Courtney Love, but before the unreadable and incessant MySpace blogging started, she was putting out platinum albums. Now she's prepping her latest, Nobody's Daughter, and Heeb talks to the 44-year-old about her future move to NYC (did you know her grandmother lives in Brooklyn?). Before the present-day talk gets started, she recalls an infamous past visit here; "you kind of have to live under a rock not to know that they kind of took me to Bellevue. It was just so awful, and so I just don’t feel like, last time [in New York], it ended up so well. But at the same time, you know, I made myself really vulnerable by taking drugs. So now I just don’t take drugs."

Spawn of Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain, Frances Bean, has taken an internship for the summer at Rolling Stone -- the magazine that once commemorated her father's death with a tribute issue. Earlier this year she told Harper's Bazaar that her career aspirations involved photography and journalism, while hinting at the upcoming internship at the rock rag. The NY Post reports via some "insiders" that "she doesn't get coffee for anyone . . . calls in sick all the time and wears funny outfits." A Rolling Stone rep, however, assures all gossip-mongers that their rock star royalty is "a great girl, and we're thrilled to have her." Besides, she's only 15-years-old and already works full-time keeping her mother's train wreck from derailing past the point of no return.
