Lil' Blonde Darling: Courtney Love!

Blonde Beauty Icon Courtney Love

Last night I went to David LaChapelle's Whitewall Magazine party at the Royalton Hotel. After getting the chance to hang out with her in David's penthouse suite, I can't think of a better blonde icon than alt.rock goddess Courtney Love! Born in San Francisco (cheers to the Bay Area!!), she kicked off her music career with a brief stint as the lead vocalist for Faith No More. While making ends meet by dancing at a $trip club, she formed the band Hole in 1989 and after bonding over pharmaceuticals, married King of Grunge Kurt Cobain in 1992. EPIC! Nobody made 90's heroin chic look more glamorous: dirty baby doll dresses, smeared red lipstick, and over processed hair!

I was lucky enough to catch one of her last performances during the short lived 1999 Marilyn Manson/Hole tour. Apparently they didn't quite get along. PS I just looked in the mirror.....after passing out drunk last night in my makeup I have unintentionally channeled her look! At least it's easy one to imitate!

Pretty, pretty princess!
