Courtney Love: Don't Pick On Me Lily Allen

Courtney Love has responded to Lily Allen’s supposed disparaging remarks about her on Myspace.

Last month Allen was reported to have commented about a night out with Love by saying she now knew why “Kurt Cobain killed himself”.

However, Allen has since said her Myspace was hacked and she did not make the remarks.

Writing on her own Myspace profile Love said: "Thanks to Lily Allen for her lovely apologising for having had her MySpace broken into.

"I wouldn't pick on me if I was Miss Lily, as it wouldn't take TOO much to swat, but we've known each other far too long, like each other far too much and if she was gonna say something nasty she has the acerbic wit and intelligence to say something cutting, that would actually really hurt, not some cliched hoary old chestnut some obsessed blogger would say.”

She continued: "She tells me her MySpace was broken into - even if I REALLY think she did blog it mindlessly some 8am after being up far too long for a young healthy woman I don't care and I appreciate and accept her thoughtfulness for apologising for what was printed, if she is telling the truth and it really doesn't much matter - everyone slams everyone early in their careers, (Sonic Youth)'s Kim Gordon still slams me, I mean how much more boring can you get? (than Kim Gordon - slam!) Does anyone care?"
