Courtney Love Two Hours Late for Hearing  



BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Rock star Courtney Love showed up two hours late Tuesday for a hearing on drug charges and was scolded by the judge after talking out of turn in court.

Love's attorney Michael Rosenstein won a delay of the preliminary hearing after arguing that witnesses needed to be brought in from out of state and that he had not received drug samples for testing.

But the brief proceeding was marked by interjections from Love, who claimed to have prescriptions for the drugs and at another point seemed to fire and immediately rehire her lawyer.

"I have the pill bottles on me," she blurted.

At another point she said to her attorney, "You're fired."

"Miss Love, you're not doing yourself any favors," Superior Court Judge Elden Fox said.

"Rehired," Love said.

Love, former lead singer of the group Hole, is charged with illegal possession of the painkillers hydrocodone and oxycodone.

She was arrested in October after allegedly trying to break into the Los Angeles home of a former boyfriend. Police found the drugs later when paramedics were called to her house after Love suffered a drug overdose.

The judge rescheduled the preliminary hearing for April 15.

Prosecutor Jeff Stodel argued against a delay, saying, "We're ready to go."

That's gotta be the first article concerning Love I've ever seen that doesn't say "former wife of Kurt Cobain".

Why doesn't Tori Amos write more songs like "God" and "Cornflake Girl"?

GODDAMMIT, I really really really hate threads like this.  I'm not going to read the whole thing, but I sincerely hope my point has been made in one of the previous pages.  I hate when a band like Sleater-Kinney gets called a great female rock band instead of a great rock band.  I hate when PJ Harvey gets called a great pioneer of women's rock music instead of a great pioneer of rock music.  While I think it's nice to see a thread appreciating artists, threads like these come off to me like "gee, how neat it is to see actual WOMEN making music too!"  Funny how I don't see any threads named "Favorite female actors".

gonesavage, you don't think female singer songwriters write about different things?  you don't think that women have different view at this male-dominated society?  you don't think great songwriters with vaginas are able to express and offer perspectives different from that of a dude?  can't this post be a discussion on a particular subcategory of "singer-songwriters"?  Can't that subcategory be gender-based?

*ps: you are my favorite female poster.
