Foreclosure May Loom for Love

Mercury Capital Corporation alleges in a lawsuit that Courtney Love, lead singer for the band Hole and now resident of a rehab facility, has not paid on her mortgage since June of this year, E! Online News reports. Mercury Capital is seeking to attain the deed of her 4,123 square foot loft located in Manhattan's popular SoHo district, but that's not all. They also want "any personal property" inside the property.

Love purchased the condo in 2001 for $2.6 million, a bargain of a price compared to what it would be worth in today's New York condo market. Her condo's management board has levied liens on the property twice this year during her ordeals with arrests and drug rehabilitation.

The rocker-actress is currently facing trial on charges of probation violation, which could land her in a new home called jail. Love is due back in court Sept. 16, when a judge will make that decision.

Love's music-management group could not be reached for comment for this report.

    I think she's at the wrong end of the tunnel. I hope she makes it out before she gets run over. It's sad. I think she's a smart person, probably means well most of the time, but drugs will fuck you up everytime.

    I would agree with you there. I think she's probably the hypersensitive type, and her escape is either music, acting or the not-so-positive things, such as drugs and alcohol. I hope she gets a handle on things, myself.

    With her rampant drug addiction, and the fact that she's facing jail and foreclosure, wouldn't you say she already is in hell? Of course, it is one that she created. Courtney Love is not my favorite person, either, but I really don't like to see people destroy themselves, or others. It really does reflect sadly on our society that so much of it goes on, but that's an entirely different post, and a very long one, at that.

    How disgusting that a man (Courtney had a sex change, there is viable proof) claimed to be married to this icon, after they (the COG cult) murdered him in 1990. Geffen (and his boyfriend Pitt, who was snogging Love too) helped "it" steal Cobain's songs and record them with her group. It is a mockery of talent and goodness. Courtney Love, your life is in ruins and soon you will be dead. As will everyone involved in the sacrafice of Kurt Cobain.



    This is not Kurt Cobain's child, he had no children! Frances Bean belongs to Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt (yes, they knew each other long before they married). She is idenical to her parents, and strangly, ever whore Hollywood has ever produced. She is hideous.
    Kurt had unearthly crystal colored eyes, that demon's eyes are grey just like it's real father, Brad.
    Kurt Cobain was murdered in 1990, later Courtney Love (whose real mother is actually "Wendy" who falsly claims to be Cobain's mother) was paid-off to pretend to be married and have a child, all so that the Hollywood 3 could share in the reported 6 billion Nirvana has thus far grossed. Geffen was delighted by all of this, helping Courtney with her transgendering (She was once a male). The hundreds (no doubt thousands) that were and are involved in this horrid Sacrafice are paying-with their lives! Oh, how they shall pay for those crimes.
    We love you Kurt.

    It is just another Cult admission of guilt, a silly one at that (there is no G-d, and no jesus, but those are the cults false idols).
    Just a hyme, a crust of bread thrown on the trail of murderers...

    "Viable proof"... I'm going to have to go ahead and say that I'm a little bit doubtful there.

    Off the gloomy topic for a sec: a 4,100 sq. foot loft in SoHo is just about my dream home of dream homes.

    This is the oddest cut-and-paste comment spread across every Courtney Love thread on the entire site I've ever seen.

    High marks for insanity, person. You get a gold star for entertainment value.

    That is all.

    SoHo Tampa rocks!!!

    What does everyone think Love's loft will go for, after foreclosure (if it happens)?

    Is Courtney Love, herself, a lien on the property (duh)?

    Inquiring minds want to know.
