Rock author Neil Strauss is revealing some bizarre details about Courtney Love in his new book Everyone Loves You When You’re Dead. And as the name suggests, it’s pretty morbid. Strauss alleges that Love wanted to snort the ashes of her late husband Kurt Cobain, along with him. Uh, thanks, but no thanks.
The weird activity was apparently suggested when he was interviewing her, while she was fronting Hole. He says, “She was serious when she made the suggestion. She actually said she would offer his ashes to me first to snort and the said she would like them. But the idea was nixed as I don’t do coke”. The exchange is fleshed out in the book and states that it all went down in Love’s home in L.A where she showed him a a tin which contained a plastic bag full of ashes and said, “Say hi to Kurt”. She also supposedly added, “Too bad you don’t do coke. Otherwise I’d suggest taking a metal straw to it”, to which he responded, “Yeah, I don’t think that would be the right thing to do”. Strauss then writes that her reply was, “I’d like to though”. Okay, we don’t know what to say to that. It’s just too creepy for us. So we’re just going to stick with R.I.P Kurt!
