So, right, there are these clips up on YouTube from an upcoming documentary about Courtney Love. We’ve been watching them. The one where she shows the reporter her shoe collection and then happens upon the jacket Kurt died in feels so self-promoting and manipulative that it made us not want to watch any others. But the clip that’s up today, which puts into context footage from the first clip and shows bits of interviews with Billy Corgan and Linda Perry, is actually really intriguing.
Courtney discusses, among other things, her bizarre appearance at Pamela Anderson’s roast and subsequent overdose/suicide attempt in which, she says, she “took heroin for the first time in ten years.” She comes off as pretty forthright and, well, sober, though she is still a woman who lists Kurt and Lindsay Lohan in the same breath when discussing those she chants for during her practice of Buddhism. Could she maybe (potentially, for real, somehow) come back and make a great record? In this interview she really seems lucid and wise and self-aware and still edgy and narcissistic in the right rock ways. Is a second coming of Courtney possible?
