Frances Bean CobainLeave it to Courtney Love. The Hole singer has found away to offend both her estranged daughter and her late husband's bandmate in a single tweet.
Love tweeted on Wednesday night that Dave Grohl, 43, "had his hands all over" her 19-year-old daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, and was "OBSESSED" with the late Kurt Cobain's family.
Love lost custody of Frances Bean Cobain when she was 17 and the child moved in with Kurt Cobain's mother. Frances Bean Cobain was not yet 2 years old when her father, the frontman for Nirvana, committed suicide in 1994.
"While I'm generally silent on the affairs of my biological mother, her recent tirade has taken a gross turn," Frances said in a statement to E! News. "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."
Grohl, a member of Nirvana and now Foo Fighters, issued his own statement: “Unfortunately Courtney is on another hateful Twitter rant. These new accusations are upsetting, offensive and absolutely untrue.”
Love has a history of posting provocative statements over the Internet, but has laid relatively low since paying out more than $400,000 last year in what was considered the first Twitter defamation settlement for derogatory remarks about designer Dawn Simonrangkir, the Los Angeles Times reported.
According to Rolling Stone, this is not the first time Love has attacked Grohl in public. Five months ago, Love launched into a tirade against him at a festival in Brazil prompted by her outrage at a fan carrying a poster of Cobain in the audience.
