Courtney Love Claims Cobain Estate Looted Of $200 Million

KURT Cobain's mother and sister might lose their homes because of two thieves who bilked his estate of more than $200 million, claims his widow, Courtney Love. Earlier this month, Love made accusations against an alleged con man and con woman who can't be identified until court papers are filed. Love said they used Cobain's Social Security number to open up more than 188 credit cards in his name and refinance several homes - including Kurt's mother's, Wendy Fradenburg Cobain O'Connor.

"It's insane," Love cried in one of several ranting voice-mail messages she left us. "In Kurt's will, his mom was left 15 percent of his estate - the rest went to me and [daughter] Frances Bean. But we had to wait until the estate closed and probate was over. But it's been open 14 years! It's criminal."

An irate, shouting Love said she met the alleged con artists years ago through friends. Since then, she learned they have bought homes in New Jersey and upstate New York, taken private planes to and from Westchester and bought convalescent homes. "I don't expect in a recession Americans to feel sorry for a person who's lost about $200 million, but this is nuts. I had [only] a $500 limit on my ATM card for years," Love said.

"Kurt's mother's home is in arrears and his sister Kim's home was repossessed by the bank . . . Investigators found 62 bank accounts I never opened. His mom should have $163 million by now with amortization from her part of the will. It's so frustrating. I was promised [by financial managers and lawyers] that 'before a penny drops in the wrong direction, we will be there. You will never be embezzled from.' I was."

Well, perhaps she is right. She seemed to be "luded".
So, are we supposed to feel sorry for her???

[AdultFilmLegend]

Only $500 from the ATM at one time. That's a lot of trips to the bank in order to pay for all of that f'd up plastic surgery.

Wow, like Courtney Love is the first rich junkie to sober up one day and discover that the leeches, douchbags, and hangers on that she'd let into her life have cleaned her out. What an idiot this woman is.

No powder burns on Kurt. How can that be at "Suicide-Range"?

[dgscol]

Who can say who the unidentified pettifoggers were or who their clientel? If she blew it up her nose or made more timely investitures.

[NoSillyName]

Whatever I was gonna say has already been posted. Waking up too late, CL.

c'mon courtney. the two hundred mill went up your nose.

Well, Courtney Love - Congratulations on finally realizing the depth of your addiction and the extent to how it has destroyed more than you had ever realized it did. You probably opened the door, gave the key away and allowed this robbery to happen, all the while you screwing someone upside down and snorting while shooting up. Just because you finally decided to get clean and come up for air . . . It's too late to be sorry - Unfortunately, the real loser in all of this is definitely going to be Frances Bean. She deseved more from you; so did Kurt's mom.

psycho woman or not that would be a nightmare for anyone. i hate thieves and would want them euthanized.

[carpentero]

Whatever the legalities are, I'll still put Courtney Love on my list of people I couldn't care less about. As for her dead husband: never even heard of him until younger friends were so upset about his death. Booo, hooooo. Does anyone think this poser really contributed to the music/art world? I was goofing around with similar guitar styles when I was 12, in my garage.

[Jimbo23]

Way to denigrate the memory of someone who actually meant a lot to a lot of people. I hate Courtney too but calling long dead Kurt Cobain a poser? Where do you get off? I sincerely doubt you listened to any Nirvana and if you were so great at 12 why has nobody heard of you? Step off Troll!

[ultrabop]

Kurt brought rock out of the doldums of Corporate Rock/formula music. Sure, he didn't do anything groundbreaking musically.­....except be himself...­..so give him credit for at least doing that and writing nice melodies as well.

[AmericaIsATerroist]

Yeah sure you were. And I was toying around with giant rocket designs in my garage when I was 12 in 1969. Damn Nasa ripped me off.

Courtney needs to keep better track of her finances. She's forgot about more money than I'm liable to make in a lifetime.

[CoulterIsASuccubus]

Maybe if she hadn't spent the last fifteen years hopped up on goofballs, she might have noticed sooner.

[fcsakes]

Does this mean we have to bail her out now - get in line behind the other millionaires.

What happened to her face - she doesn't look like the Courtney Love I remember.

[ultrabop]

She looks like Goldy Hawn.

[chuckgraner]

Booze, drugs, and being rode hard and put away wet -eventually it all adds up to being one ugly broad.

[anastasiabeaverhousen]

If the money hadn't been looted, it would have eventually been TOOTED up her nose.

[happycat]

Now that's funny!...A­nd true.
