After her blogging binges, it's amazing Courtney Love has any good stories left. Oh, who are we kidding? She's got a bevy of 'em and here's another: Love admits that she told daughter Frances Bean that she used heroin while she was pregnant, a story Love denied when it was first reported in Vanity Fair. "We went on a binge," she told VF writer Lynn Hirschberg in 1992. "I did heroin for a couple of months." Those months happened to coincide with her first trimester."My daughter knows I did drugs in my first trimester of pregnancy," she tells British Elle magazine. "She weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces when she was born and she was healthy." Love then insists that she and Kurt Cobain were model caregivers, saying, "We were excellent parents and I say that despite pretty much always having an edge on. Frances bonded very well with her father, at least in the first year-and-a-half of her life."
But, as with every Love interview, she doesn't stop there. Love goes on to discuss her weight loss methods, including her doctor-denied requests for a gastric band, and the fact that she has a "very satisfactory sexual life."
For those who've ever been embarrassed by their mother, think of Frances. You'll feel better.
