Courtney Love has been accusing people of stealing from her again. I'm not saying she does this sort of thing a lot but... no, wait, that's exactly what I'm saying.
Anyway, Love has announced via Twitter that she did not authorise the inclusion of Kurt Cobain's likeness to be used in the new version of pretend-to-play videogame 'Guitar Hero'. In fact, she's blamed the whole thing on Dave Grohl and says she's going to start suing people over this travesty.
She said: " was always a bad seed and is still riding the shit while I take bullets. If there's a hell, he's going. I'm not. We are going to sue the shit out of Activision - 'we' being the Trust, the Estate, the LLC, the various LLCs, Cobain Enterprises. For the record, this 'Guitar Hero' shit is breach of contract on a bully's part and there will be a proper addressing of this and retraction".
But Tim Riley, VP of the game's aforementioned developers Activision, however, says that Courtney not only sanctioned the virtual representation of Cobain, but helped them design it. He told The Guardian: "Courtney supplied us with photos and videos. She picked the wardrobe and hairstyle, which turned out to be the 'Teen Spirit' look, then we went back and forth over changes - some subtle, some not so subtle. sort of athletic definition but not overly so".
It remains to be seen if anything will come of Courtney's latest legal rant.
