Courtney Love Apologises to Billy Corgan on Facebook

Courtney Love has gone on Facebook to apologise to Billy Corgan, after he attacked Hole's founder in a Rolling Stone interview.

The Smashing Pumpkins frontman disowned new Hole material he had worked on for Love's forthcoming album 'Nobody's Daughter.' Corgan had co-written several tracks, but then hoped they would not be used.

"It would be a real big problem, because I haven't given my permission," he said. "I have no interest in supporting her in any way, shape or form. You can't throw enough things down the abyss with a person like that."

On Tuesday (March 16), Love posted a message for Corgan on Facebook, apologising for "all the thousand ways I sometimes offend you." She also praised their songwriting endeavours. "We have again created beauty from the agony between us," she wrote.

Since they both came to fame in the early nineties, the pair have enjoyed a tempestuous relationship, including a brief romance, before Love married Nirvana's Kurt Cobain.

In 2006, Cogan moved into to her Hollywood Hills home and the pair went into the studio after Love had undergone treatment for drug abuse -- she called the output from these sessions the Rehab Demos.

'Nobody's Daughter' is Love's first album working as Hole since 1998's 'Celebrity Skin' and was initially due for release in 2008.

Your biggest mistake Kurt will always be that you brought that filthy greedy thing on the map. We will never forgive you for making her famous and polluting the world with such disgrace . I know you finally regretted but was too late...

Based on your post, I don't think you should throw stones . . ."your (you're) just a (an) idiot. . .theirs (there's or there is) no reason . . ." Did you sleep through elementary school?

I used to like Smashing Pumpkins, but lately some of Billy Corgan's statements make him sound like a pompous jerk. His band is OK, they are not exactly the Rolling Stones. As to Courtney Love, who cares -- she is a has-been. Another Amy Winehouse, only worse because she screwed up her life and her daughters.

There is no reason at all to downplay any of these Bands, nor the people in them. These Bands brought it on, and they brought it on strong. I'm from the days of Jimi Hendrix and I can still play everything note-for-note. If anyone happens not to like Hole or Smashing Pumpkins, it is merely a matter of their own opinion. If you wish to continue the name calling, go ahead. It will always be the concerts of ten and twenty thousand people at a time that will forever prove you wrong.

You call yourself Rockin and don't know who these people are. You must be Rockin in your cradle.
