Courtney Love demands recall of Guitar Hero 5
- September 10, 2009 00:00 AM PST
Courtney Love has taken to Twitter to express her outrage about her late husband's appearance in Guitar Hero 5. Activision is replying that she indeed signed a contract allowing it.
Kurt Cobain's widow and Hole frontwoman Courtney Love posted a series of messages on her Twitter account over the last 24 hours about objections she had to her late husband's appearance in Guitar Hero 5, starting with a proclamation stating:
FOR THE RECORD I DID NOT APPROVE KURTS AVATAR FOR GUYITARHERO5. i think Kurt would despise this game alone let alone this avatar
She later added:
now theyre just LIQUIDATING kurt and IM THE DEVIL? I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH GUITAR HERO I LOATHE IT AND FIND IT ODIOUS KURT WOULD HAVE TOO
Love did admit to speaking with Guitar Hero publisher Activision, writing in back-to-back tweets:
we have NOTHING to do with this it was presented to me and oi said "show me a better avataR" TO DRAG MY HEELS., never did i intend on allowi
allowing GUITARHERO for me or for Kurt i am NOT yoko fucking Ono no ofense to her, but i am a different person entirely and this is insane
Kotaku, however, contacted Activision and received a reply from the company, in which they said "Guitar Hero secured the necessary licensing rights from the Cobain estate in a written agreement signed by Courtney Love to use Kurt Cobain's likeness as a fully playable character in Guitar Hero 5"
Love has just recently shot back, stating that her agreement with the company wasn't as solid, saying:activision is fulllof shit they have a a contcrct called a deal memo that said upon approvale they could use an avatar i approved i .
and i never inteneded to aPPROVE this shit, they are doing a recall you can be sure o fthat. waita ew hours maybe tomorrow press and etc
We'll be sure to keep deciphering tweets and reporting the news on this growing feud.
Depending on how this proceeds, I may end up having to rescind "F--k you, Courtney Love," from my original Cobain news post, but regardless of that, let the record show that I have added a "good goddamn, that woman spells about as terribly as she sings."

There wouldn't be any problem if Courtney didn't kill Kurt.
I kid I kid, she'd still have problems.

The bitch probably just wants more money.
well, considering she didn't want him in the game in the first place, I'd have to disagree with you...
but yeah. Fuck this game. Who the hell's idea was it to put him in anyways? He was an amazing artist, but in no way a guitar hero.

100 bucks says she did sign the contract ... but then read all the negative comments she's been getting from fans and of course is now saying "FOR THE RECORD I DID NOT APPROVE KURTS AVATAR FOR GUYITARHERO5" ....
i guess you can add.. "AN D1DNTTT FINITSH ELEMETRY SCKUL EIDER"
you guy's honestly think that activision is stupid enough to add kurt's avatar in the game without having Cobain's estate sign a contract ?... risking millions of dollars in the process?
of course not!
this low life is just full of *****
