"There's not a whole lot I can do about it. This is like a hand grenade got thrown into our lives and it's not Frances! I am angry at these people, not Frances. I'd just prefer she not become Jaimie [sic] L Spears. She should go be a writer or an artist, which I support 100%, but this is a circus and it pains me cos I know she hates it."
-Former Hole frontwoman Courtney Love, writing on Facebook about losing custody of her daughter. 17-year-old Frances Bean Cobain — the only child of Love and late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain — will be living with her paternal grandmother after Love lost legal custody of her earlier this week. No specific reason was given about why Love has lost her status as Frances' legal guardian. The above rant comes a day after Love wrote a lengthy diatribe on Facebook attacking her daughter. "I hate to sound cold, but any kid of mine who pulls this sh-- has lost her position," Love wrote. "The good news is now that Frances is clearly deluded that she [thinks she] can buy her grandmother a 'small house in L.A.' I'd love to see how that works. They'll incubate her until she's 18 and then have her sign all the indemnifications."
