Courtney Love: I Don't Take Drugs

Troubled rocker Courtney Love denies she has a drug problem - despite being charged with possession of narcotics last month. The former Hole frontwoman admits to being a former heroin user, but insists "everybody does" prescription painkillers Hydrocodone and Oxycodone - which she was arrested carrying. Love, 39, says, "I want to make one thing clear right now. I do not take narcotics. I have taken prescription pills, and I went to rehab once. "I take Xanax that is prescribed to me, but practically everybody does that nowadays. But I do not take street narcotics." Prosecutors say Love, who lost custody of her 11-year-old daughter Frances Bean after her arrest, is expected to appear in court for an arraignment on the charges following her arrest in Los Angeles, after which she overdosed. It is currently unknown if she will faces a custodial sentence if convicted - but Sandi Gibbons, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, says the singer could be eligible for a drug diversion program which would spare her from a prison sentence.




Will we be hearing the same story from rush????

I'm everybody and I don't take any of those drugs.

1. I really want to hear Oxyrush try and weasel his way out of this one...
If he tries the angle that "everybody does it", he's not exactly treating his fellow right-wingnut radio and TV squawkers as models of Nancy Reagan's "Just Say 'No'" propriety, now, is he? :eyes:

Y'know, LYNNESIN, I really LIKE the idea that we've spent our lives thusfar 100 times "cleaner" than has Oxyrush!:D

B-)

2. You know, that's kinda like when Whitney Houston...
claimed that, because she's rich, it was stupid of people to accuse her of using Crack ('cause everybody knows only POOR people use Crack).

3. To his credit
Rush has already admitted that he's an addict, and admitting you have a problem is the first step in recovery. I don't know how his run in with the law is going to play out.

5. Give me a break. She's stoned 29 out of 24 hours on every possible drug
imaginable. There is no person on the planet living in deeper denial than this nutcase.

Hell she sold the teevees in her house to her frickin drug dealer 3 weeks ago. But she doesn't have a drug problem, no sirreeeeeeee.
