Courtney Love is a singer and guitarist for the band Hole and occasional actress. Courtney is the widow of Kurt Cobain (1967-1994), singer in the band Nirvana, with whom she has one daughter, Frances Bean.
In her early career Courtney modelled a 'baby doll' look, which she may or may not have ripped off from Kat Bjelland of Babes in Toyland. Courtney's style has since evolved, and she has modelled for more sophisticated, designer labels.
Courtney attempted to begin a 'punk rock femme supergroup' during summer/autumn 2001 called Bastard. Currently 'Hole' are involved in a law suit.

She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the 1997 film The People vs. Larry Flynt. She played the role of Flynt's wife, Althea.
