Bye, Bye Love: Courtney Ditches Her Last Name

Courtney Love, much like Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, seems to be willing to do whatever she can to stay relevant. It’s possible that she’s sued everyone she can already, so the obvious next step to stay in the news has been to announce that she’s changing her name. Her new moniker? Courtney Michelle, her given first and middle name.

Love, oops, sorry, Michelle, told NME “Courtney Love is dead. We’ve all decided we don’t like her any more. We love her when she goes onstage, but I don’t need her in the rest of my life.” She also added “The name Courtney Love is a way to oppress me.” Hear that, people? If you use her last name, you’re going to oppress her and we wouldn’t be surprised if she attempted to sue us all for reparations for using “Love” for all these years. We have a feeling that, much like Prince couldn’t remain an unpronounceable symbol forever, this change may not catch on.
