Courtney Love is beginning to curse the day she became the guardian of her late husband Kurt Cobain's Nirvana catalogue - because it has become a big anchor in her life.

The Hole rocker admits it's a constant struggle to keep the tragic star's music from grasping opportunists who would like to use the music in films and commercials.

She tells Bust magazine, "The Nirvana stuff is f**king cursed in my opinion... Somebody has to guard the gates of this thing, because you know what would happen? The second I sell (the rights), it becomes a jukebox musical, makes a billion dollars, and you'v...

Rocker Courtney Love laughs off reports suggesting she's "crazy", because she knows for sure she isn't, thanks to a medical overhaul.

After a series of drug issues and legal and financial woes, the former Hole star began to believe the hype that perhaps there was something wrong with her mentally - and so she visited a doctor for a thorough check-up.

She tells Bust magazine, "If anybody could have ever proven me to be crazy, they certainly would have. And it's never happened.

"Technically, in the sense of being bipolar, manic-depressive, or any of that stuff, it's just not true. I mean, ...

Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith have an open marriage in which they can have sex with anyone they want.

Verdict: Appears to be true. This rumor has been circulating for years, and although Pinkett hasn't explicity said they swap partners, the actress told HuffPost Live, earlier this week, "I've always told Will, 'You can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be OK...

Courtney Love is in talks to join a TV talent show as a judge/mentor.

The Hole rocker has revealed that she is close to signing up to become a TV star, but she's refusing to name the show.

She tells Wonderland magazine, "I don't know if it's gonna happen or not, but they're looking at me to judge one of these talent shows. Some people go on them and they have butterflies come out of their a**. I'm not saying I'm gonna go on and be a c**t, but I would just be myself.

"I'm not afraid to be honest. I always said I would never, ever, ever do one, but I'm not talking about the one judging ...

Most celebrities have had "a little work done" over the course of their careers, going for the usual nip here or tuck there to improve their appearance and keep themselves looking youthful enough to keep landing the big roles; and then there are the few dozen who have taken cosmetic surgery procedures to their most extreme.

Take former Dead or Alive singer Pete Burns, for instance. Known in the early 80s for his flamboyant, androgynous appearance, Burns has undergone several cosmetic surgeries -- likening them to simply "buying a new sofa" and saying it's something he'll always keep doing ...

Courtney Love has settled a legal battle over a haul of expensive jewelry which went missing after she borrowed it in 2010.

The Hole frontwoman was sued by jeweler-to-the-stars Jacob Arabo in 2010 over claims his firm Jacob & Company loaned her $100,000 worth of gems, which were never handed back.

Love maintained she returned the items but they were lost in the delivery process, and in 2011, a judge ruled the singer was responsible for the pieces, which included two diamond chains, a bracelet and a pair of earrings.

Arabo demanded the rocker pay $113,000 plus interest, but the judge s...

When the current baktun of the Mayan calendar comes to a close on December 21, 2012, many prophecies say the world will end.

Mind you, this prophecy comes from a race of people who couldn't predict their own civilization's end, so how credible are they in predicting the end of the world in our time?

The sun will rise and life will probably go on as usual tomorrow, but for now we've come up with a list of celebrities that -- if the world does end -- you won't miss.

Courtney Love was not happy when the living members of Nirvana took the stage with Paul McCartney to perform for the 12/12/12 benefit for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

TMZ reported before the show that Love was "not amused" after learning about the reunion that would involve the Beatle in the place of her deceased husband Kurt Cobain.

She was particularly upset at Nirvana stars Dave Grohl, Pat Smear, and Krist Novoselic for calling it a "Nirvana reunion," as she was adamant Kurt Cobain was the heart and soul of the group. She added, "Look, if John [Lennon] were alive it would be cool...

It seems that Courtney Love doesn't want anyone to sing about her vagina, including Lana Del Rey.

Del Rey sang a cover of Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box," which apparently is all about Love's lady parts.

Love tweeted, "You do know the song is about my Vagina right...? On top of which some of the lyrics about my vagina I contributed. So umm next time you sing it, think about my vagina will you?"

The question is, did Del Rey know what the song is about? And if so, she apparently didn't care.

Bosses at Keith A. Fink & Associates have accused the Hole rocker of failing to pay them for their services between the months of January and October, 2009, and now the firm has launched a legal battle against Love in a bid to recoup the funds.

The attorneys claim Love sent them a slew of gifts, including flowers and concert tickets, as compensation after her checks bounced.

While many aspiring starlets are in training to be the next chart topper, the 44-year-old was busy discovering salvation on England’s countryside and becoming a mother to twin girls. However, the itch to make music never left and over an eight-month period, she wrote 30 songs, channeling her southern roots. The result is S...

Courtney Love insists she's the only living celebrity who can boast a "frozen" Wikipedia.com site - because she once fought with online bosses to correct and remove items posted on her extensive biography.

The Hole singer admits she spent 18 hours online one day trying to "figure out" her Wikipedia page - and now only she can access it and make changes.

In addition, there's a white dress painted with red writing that reads: "Not my c*** on my dime mister" and another swatch of clothing with "F*** me" repeatedly embroidered on it.

Shining Star: Ashley Judd: It was the diss heard round the world, and Ashley responded with not a whimper, but a bark!

You may have seen the pictures. Ashley Judd was spotted with what appeared to be a plastic surgery enhanced face. She was photographed looking bloated and puffy.

It's got to hurt when your own daughter goes to court to permanently remove you from her life.
