Music fans are quite familiar with Courtney Love. Some people love the work she’s done with the band Hole (“Doll Parts” is an alternative rock classic), and others just find her to be entertaining. She’s also made the news due to her past relationship with Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. The two were compared to Sid and Nancy — two very talented individuals who were bound to self-implode if they kept living a life filled with drugs and destruction. Of course, Kurt’s fate is well known — he committed suicide on April 5, 1994, at the age of 27.
Some fans were quick to blame Courtney for what happened. That in itself was a lot to bear — sure, the two both made irresponsible decisions in their lives, but at the time of Kurt’s death, he was a father. He was also an adult and a highly successful musician. Blaming suicide on anyone, especially someone who loved him dearly, is the wrong move to make.
Since then, Courtney’s dealt with other pains in her life. But the good news is, she’s working hard on staying sober, which is a commendable achievement. Courtney Love’s sobriety might open up even more opportunities for the star.
