LOVE'S HOME AUCTIONED AFTER MONEY PROBLEMS


A bungalow COURTNEY LOVE bought in 1997 is up for public auction because the HOLE singer has fallen behind with mortgage payments.

The former wife of late NIRVANA frontman KURT COBAIN purchased the gabled property located on the edge of Capitol Forest, Washington State, in 1997 - but she owes $367,000 (GBP203,000) in unpaid loans and legal fees, according to Los Angeles firm WWC Mortgage Corp.

According to documents filed in October 2004, Love ceased paying mortgage installments on the property, which is currently occupied by Cobain's sister KIM, in December 2003.

Love can still retain ownership of the property by paying off all her debts before the auction at the Washington State county courthouse on 6 January (05).

UGH. IMAGINE the residue on the walls of THAT house!

I'm torn.

On the one hand, for the past three or four years, Courtney Love's
life has been my favorite showbiz train wreck in progress. But there
was always the hint that she was pulling a big publicity stunt.

But when someone lets the country repossess their property --
even if they have others -- that's a bad sign...because the
others could fall like dominoes too...
