Courtney Love urges Dave Grohl to tell his fans their feud is over

Courtney Love wants Dave Grohl to tell his fans that they’re “cool” after a long-running feud.

The former Hole singer, who was married to Grohl’s late Nirvana bandmate Kurt Cobain, has urged the Foo Fighters rocker to publicly declare that their feud is over so his fans will stop allegedly “picking on” her.

During a recent appearance on The Magnificent Others with Billy Corgan podcast, the 61-year-old discussed being bad-mouthed in the press and called on Grohl to “be man enough to man up” and “come out with it and just say we’re cool”.

Speculating that he’s “afraid” he’ll “lose (his) audience” by doing so, she continued, “It would really behoove me if the straight white males that are your base, if you will, stop picking on me. The millennials in particular. Gen Z is not picking on me anymore.”

The Smashing Pumpkins frontman, who hosts the podcast, confirmed that Grohl “doesn’t have any issue” with Love these days.

“Say that to his base. It’s so stupid,” she stated, before adding, “I couldn’t write a song about Dave Grohl to save my life. He’s written like, four songs about me and they’re hits. I’m like, wait what? Like, what about me? I don’t get it.”

Grohl, who wrote the Foo Fighters songs I’ll Stick Around and Let It Die about Love, attended her wedding to Cobain in 1992. However, after Cobain died by suicide in 1994, the rocker’s widow and bandmate became embroiled in a bitter legal battle over the rights to Nirvana’s music. They settled the dispute in 2002.

After a long-running feud, during which they criticised each other in the press, the pair appeared to have worked out their issues by 2014, when they were spotted hugging at Nirvana’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
