Death of the critic: Courtney Love 4 Charlie Brooker
- Artists:
- Nirvana »
- Courtney Love »
In the first of two special reports coming today from behind lines at the Daily Star, it’s being reported that the predatory glint in Courtney Love’s left eye has fallen and fixed on admirable cynic Charlie Brooker.
Love has chosen to “aim her amore” in the direction of 37-year-old Brooker after a string of failed flings with “rockers and comics”, among them, of course, former Nirvana man Kurt Cobain and Steve Coogan.
DrownedinSound does not wish to speculate on what Love’s ‘amore’ might be, simply because it’s liable to make us sick.
Pink, gannet-y ladyflesh.
Vomit-splattered Mac in DiSopolis (screen wipe?), no word from Brooker as of yet, though he does, you'll have to admit, look rather perplexed.

Kurt Cobain: 'Failed fling'?
Seems a little harsh, then again a shotgun blast to the head will tend to bring a relationship to an abrupt halt!
LOL @ Screenwipe...
I'm not sure if this is odd, or expected any more?
she's using him to further her career
surely....? oddest news ever though and rather dubious...
I'd like to thank Charlie Brooker
for not (yet) reissuing his old books, which are currently making me a mint on eBay...
I hope he reissues them eventually. I like them.
First Coogan, now Brooker......
Loz from Kingmaker must be losing sleep.
NOBODY is safe.
She's had me....
i tried to get away, i feel used and dirty.
Where was
Brooker's column in G2 yesterday?
Not there?
They must be on holiday together already!!
^ this
Some twat from Heat magazine instead. grrr...
Is that where he was from
He was going on about how harshly the paparazzi are treated in place of one of the best columns of the week. Grr indeed. Also it didn't say 'Charlie Brooker is away' or anything like that which is a bit of a worry if that twat does it permanently.
This is a really, really, really strange story
for some reason. Just is. Charlie Brooker is fantastic and should run to the hills so that Love doesn't suck all the goodness out of him, literally and metaphorically.
theres no way
brooker would go for it! He rips on this kinda thing enough plus his attitude to that kind of public eye dating means he probably wouldn't allow himself even if he wanted to. Who knows but what a weird story!
it'll be like nathan barley
'lick out courtney...then write about it'
She can't have him..
I'll fight her for him.
I'd fight him for her.
Maybe we can do a deal?
Sounds good.
I like to keep things fair.
is she a real person
or more like something your mum made up to tell you about at bedtime and keep you off crack
Not perplexed
- he looks hungover to utter death, and scary with it!
this
is funny!
Didn't
Brooker base Sugarapes offices in Nathan Barley on Drowned in Sound's?
