Courtney bags $30m of tampons and tequila
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 7 January 2009
Courtney Love has gained $30 million worth of sponsorship from tampon and tequila companies, according to her MySpace coordinator. The unnamed spokesperson posted a follow-up message to that previously cagey MySpace blog explaining (or not) why the Love’s new solo album, ‘Nobody’s Daughter’, had not be released on 1 Jan, as planned.
They wrote: “Courtney has $30 million in sponsorships from a prominent feminine hygiene/menstrual company and a prominent tequila company – and Courtney doesn’t even understand that part! – and many more companies etc”.
As to why the album was not released, they were a little more forthcoming with information this time, blaming ghosts and hip hop, or something.
They said: “Here are some reasons why the album was delayed (and we are not sugarcoating it, kids). The studio that Courtney and her band were using to record had some paranormal technical issues and had to be moved from one studio to another studio right around the holidays due to some technical sound issues that everyone, including [producer Michael] Beinhorn who is a master and a genius was not happy with [it]”.
“Courtney and crew could not hear between guitars. Sound and vocal mixings have to be completed still to perfection. If Courtney had it her way she would have it the studios sound checked first but it was originally use as a hip hop/rap studio, so the acoustics were all fucked up”.
‘Nobody’s Daughter’ is now expected to be released on 9 Feb.
