Courtney Love sent to drug rehab
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=359858&in_page_id=1773

Courtney Love is beginning rehab after admitting using drugs while on probation.

The singer broke down in a Los Angeles court as she admitted three probation violations.

Superior Court Judge Rand Rubin told her yesterday to begin a 28-day drug treatment programme immediately.

"I think that you need to hit rock bottom before you make a decision about what you're going to do in the future," he said.

1. Nahhh!
Love in rehab? Who would a thunk it? Actually, I tire of the double standard, if it were you or I, how long of a prison term do you think you would be serving now?

5. I think what the judge MEANT to say was....
"I don't know how many TIMES you have to hit rock bottom...."

Someday we're going to read a headline that she has died of an OD, surprise, surprise, surprise. At least then she won't be wasting bandwith and column inches on her pathetic life.

7. Courtney and Court: a love story
Well that's what it looks like. When she ain't high, she's in court.

She still writes great music, and she may not be America's Sweetheart but she's mine.

Has anybody but me actually read the court transcripts? At least half the time she's right. And funny as well.

Khash, some "I love Love" guy.

8. Two times in the last month she has denied this in public.
So basically, she's full of shit and really screwed up.

I feel for her daughter--I hope Coutney can get it together.
