Courtney: “We have a nanny named Jackie. She’s been working 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I always knew I that I wanted a nanny, pretty much from France’s infancy.”
Kurt: “I always wanted to be a professor. Nanny and the professor.”
Courtney: “Yeah, I get the joke. It’s kind of like your Michael Jackson joke at the MTV Video Music Awards. Kurt sometimes tells bad jokes. Sometimes he tells them to 20 million people.”
Kurt Cobain & Courtney Love’s unreleased duet isn’t the first time the two have performed together, listen to “Pennyroyal Tea” from a 1993 show the two did together in Hollywood, CA for the ‘Rock Against Rape Benefit’.
Hole recently reunited to perform a couple of songs live at the Public Assembly for the after party release of the ‘rockumentary’ “Hit So Hard.” Courtney Love used a Cobain “Teen Spirit” replica guitar.
“While I’m generally silent on the affairs of my biological mother, her recent tirade has taken a gross turn. I have never been approached by Dave Grohl in more than a platonic way. I’m in a monogamous relationship and very happy. Twitter should ban my mother.” - Frances Bean Cobain.

2/24/92 - Kurt & Courtney get married in Waikiki, Hawaii. Kurt wears pajamas while Courtney is wearing an antique lace dress that once belonged to Frances Farmer. Dave Grohl, Dylan Carlson & others attended while Krist Novoselic did not.
Kurt: “In the last couple of months, I’ve gotten engaged and my attitude has changed drastically, and I can’t believe how much happier I am and how even less career oriented I am. At times I even forget I’m in a band, I’m so blinded by love. I know that sounds embarrassing, but it’s true. I could give the band up right now. It doesn’t matter. But I’m under contract.”
Courtney: “We get attention for our relationship, but if we didn’t have bands, no one would care. I mean, the reason we’re doing this interview is girls have been trained to look up to rock star boys as these… objects. They grow up their whole lives with horses or rock stars on their walls. For me, I didn’t want to marry a rock star, I wanted to be one. I had a feminist hippie mom, and she told me I could do whatever I wanted to do. But a lot of girls think that to go out with somebody who’s cool or successful, they have to be pretty and submissive and quiet. They can’t be loud and obnoxious like me, and they can’t have their own thing.”
“I’ve heard industry women talking about how horrible L7 are, I’ve heard industry women talking about how unattractive PJ Harvey is, which is ridiculous… I just think these powerful women have this real competitive, jealous nature which manifests itself like this. And when I married Kurt, they went into overload.” - Courtney Love.
