The Midnight Courtney Myspace Missive!

posted by on October 21 at 23:50 PM

It’s close to spooky midnight, and that mysterious thing called Courtney Love has dragged her crack-crispy carcass up from whatever pit in which she lingers to type a Myspace missive—-a terrible message!——for us all. Perhaps, indeed, you’ll have some luck penetrating The Courtney Code—-but take ye heed (heed, I say!), for men have gone mad in the attempt. (Women just get kinda bitchy.) It “reads” as follows:

“i feel a big blog coming on Fashion Week, Being announced as Givenchys muse! getting a house in London AND the Countryside(Cotswalds) and a new house in LA, and goign back to Linda Perry for ONE more song after realising there isnt that ONE other RAWK song needed……..itlltake mne about an hour, but i feel like a little tittle about Fashion Rocks , Lachapelles metoric rise in Artworld in just 3 weeks, lotsa stuff Lily Allen and me in a bitchfight in the ladies,,,nah just kidding! band coming over and us having to do extra tracks without Linda like swimming at the deep end, allthat shit! see ya soon! Clove”

“Extra tracks without Linda like swimming”, indeed. Mysterious. Code-y. Courtney!

It made perfect sense to me. Whether my interpretation is accurate, well...

“i feel a big blog coming on Fashion Week, Being announced as Givenchys muse!"
*She was announced as Givenchy's muse and she senses the need to do a big blog dump on the topic soon.

"getting a house in London AND the Countryside(Cotswalds)"
*She got a house in London and the Cotswalds (a region of England where Potter's Rubeus Hagrid hails from)
"and a new house in LA,"
*Self-explanatory
"and goign back to Linda Perry for ONE more song after realising there isnt that ONE other RAWK song needed……"
*And another rock song is needed and she's going to someone named Linda Perry to get it
"..itlltake mne about an hour, but i feel like a little tittle about "
*It'll take about an hour to squeeze out the missive covering
" Fashion Rocks , Lachapelles metoric rise in Artworld in just 3 weeks, lotsa stuff Lily Allen and me in a bitchfight in the ladies,,,nah just kidding! band coming over and us having to do extra tracks without Linda like swimming at the deep end, allthat shit! see ya soon!"
*I'm assuming y'all got that part? It seems pretty clear
"Clove”
*This is the only part I didn't get, but I don't tool around her blog a lot.

I can see people getting lost at 'Givenchys', 'Cotswalds' or 'tittle' if you aren't familiar.

Oh, except now that I think of it I think it's 'CotswOlds', not 'Cotswalds'. Too lazy to check.

I'd assume Clove = C(ourtney)+love.

Is this the real Courtney Love or one of the fake Courtney Loves? Because whoever it is sure writes like they are high.

@1 great job. Now for the rest..

Fashion Rocks , Lachapelles metoric rise in Artworld in just 3 weeks, lotsa stuff Lily Allen and me in a bitchfight in the ladies,,,nah just kidding! band coming over and us having to do extra tracks without Linda like swimming at the deep end, allthat shit! see ya soon!"
*I'm assuming y'all got that part? It seems pretty clear
"Clove”

To understand the previous paragraph you have to imagine someone asking, "What's up?" before it.
1. Fashion Rocks
2. Lachapelle has risen to fame in the artworld in just 3 weeks. So fast!
3. Lots of stuff.
4. Starts to imply that she and Lily Allen got into a catfight in the ladies restroom but is just kidding.
5. The band is coming over. Having to do extra tracks without Linda is like swimming at the deep end (i.e hard).
6. Acknowledging and apologizing for her drunken state while typing this by saying it was clear enough.

Interpreting language impairment gets easy when you're on a social networking site and instinctively translate :)

@1 Sorry! I thought she was the one who said "It seems pretty clear"

She does not apologise then :(

C Love is so it - god, I hope she makes a big comeback

Crazy, sexy, real rock star stuff

The little girl singers gasping into a sound system make me sick

Let's do it C.

Compared to previous Courtney blogs, this one is (for me) shockingly easy to read.

But for once, I wish she'd stop and re-read it for spelling and punctuation errors before posting it. I know it loses the "crazy lady on the corner with a sign" asthetic, but it does add an "I'm a functional adult" asthetic that's even more pleasing.

She was on Graham Norton, looking EXACTLY like Ann Coulter. I'm praying for a meteor strike.

"Givenchy's muse"? Try Givenchy's mucus. I guarantee you Snortney pronounces it "Give-in-chee"

That was much better than the last few. I wonder what happened?

Linda Perry is from 4 Non Blondes. She is a producer now and had a large hand in Pink's first album.

So, Courtney can make a good record when someone else with some talent does all the work? Sounds about right.

Spend that money, girl! I'm sure your new record is going to be such a big hit that you can put it all back into Frances' bank account then, right?
Cool!
