Courtney Love Arrested at NYC Nightspot

NEW YORK - Rocker Courtney Love (news) was arrested early Thursday after allegedly throwing a microphone stand at an East Village nightspot, striking a man in the head, police said.

The 24-year-old man was taken to a hospital in stable condition, police said. Police said they were charging Love with reckless endangerment and third-degree assualt after the 2:30 a.m. incident.

Messages left for representatives for Love early Thursday were not immediately returned.

On Wednesday, Love, who is facing felony drug charges in California, repeatedly lifted her shirt during an appearance on the "Late Show with David Letterman."

Love's back was facing the camera when she lifted her shirt several times while making an entrance on the show, which aired Wednesday night. After taking a seat next to Letterman, Love said "FCC (news - web sites)," referencing the Federal Communications Commission (news - web sites).

At one point — while singing "Danny Boy" — Love apparently bared her breasts away from the camera while standing atop Letterman's desk. Love's exposed skin was blocked out for viewers.

Love, the former lead singer of the group Hole, was arrested in October after allegedly trying to break into the Los Angeles home of a former boyfriend.

Police called to her home after her release allegedly found the painkillers Hydrocodone and Oxycodone when Love was taken to a treatment center for a drug overdose.

Love has been charged with two felony counts of possession of controlled substances. She also faces misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and being under a controlled substance which stem from the same arrest but are being heard separately from the felony case.

A preliminary hearing in the felony case has been postponed to April 15.

During his show, Letterman asked Love whether she could talk about the court case. "Yeah, I'm not supposed to," she said.

When Letterman later asked if drugs were involved, Love said, "One expired Percocet and one Ambien."

At the end of the interview, Love asked Letterman, "Do you think I'm like, wacky and stuff?"

"Are you wacky?" Letterman responded.

"Okay, but is that against the law?" Love said.

Sounds like a fit mother to me.

Her breeding days should be over.

bump

Cant'buy me love. Hell, couldn't pay me for that.

[Mr. K]

ok, that was really uncalled for- saying someone should kill themselves is not what Freepers need to be doing

[blackdog]

Love getting free advertising is the ploy. How else does Love, a 40 something skanky thang interest a fan base of the 16 to 24 year old bunch?

Letterman was the film commercial and the subsequent arrest and preliminary hearing is the print spots in the newspapers.

The way I figure it is that Love just saved herself about three to four million dollars and got about an 80 share to boot.

Pretty smart for a skanky crack hound.

I stayed down the hall from her in a Boston hotel about 6 years ago.

The hall reeked walking by her room.

Even her outre shock-antics are derivative. Pathetic.

Of what? On second thought, I don't think I want to know.

Old hat. Drew Barrymore did exactly the same thing years ago.

Letterman had his hands full. I think he was trying to get her off the air. Later she played a number with a band. I still don't know what the "H" that was. The woman has major problems. Wacky doesn't come close.

I'm imagining her incarcerated in the same cell with Martha Stewart. I realize that might be cruel and unusual for both of them, but as long as the taxpayers as footing the bill we might as well get something out of it.

Anyone else notice how much plastic surgery she has had? It's about the worst plastic surgery I have seen besides Michael Jackson. She looks like a freak! Breasts, cheek implants, chin implant, lip implants ...

[WV Mountain Mama]

I'm trying to figure out who would be the b*tch in that pairing. I hear Martha can be pretty domineering.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Darn. I was watching Leno.

Fish?

[Little Bill]

Of What?

[blackdog]

Do not go there on this case. It's just plain wrong man!

[blackdog]

If he can name that smell, be very concerned for him.

So true......but unfortunately for Courtney, science hasn't figured out how to transplant what she REALLY needs........A BRAIN!

You'd think with all the trouble she's in, she'd keep a low profile.
