Love is finally talking about the death of her late husband Kurt Cobain.
Courtney Love says her husband Kurt Cobain died because he was an 'oblivion seeker'.The 'Celebrity Skin’ singer and the late Nirvana frontman - who committed suicide in 1994 - experimented with numerous drugs throughout their relationship, including heroin, but while she just wanted to get high on occasions Kurt possessed a nihilistic streak.
She said in an interview with The Guardian newspaper: 'He had his drug life. He was an oblivion seeker. I never wanted that. I was the kind of drug addict that just wanted to be comfortable in my skin. Escapism once in a blue moon. Kurt would just go on until he dropped. So he died, that wasn’t fun.'
Courtney, 45, believes she was made a scapegoat in the wake of his death and admits it came as a shock for her to be so unpopular, especially in the US.
The rocker - who had a daughter, 17-year-old Frances Bean, with Kurt - added: 'Being a scapegoat was new for me. I sometimes got the feeling Kurt enjoyed that I p***ed people off. I didn’t like it at all.'
