Courtney Love is firing back at Kelly Osbourne after she cracked a sobriety joke about the recovering addict on E!’s Fashion Police.
In a video posted to the interweb responding to a fans inquiry about the length of her sobriety, Courtney said:
“Kelly Osbourne and Joan Rivers called me a crackhead on the E! channel. Kelly knows I’m sober. Kelly knows there’s no drugs allowed at my house. I think it’s really lame.”
Courtney, who claims she has been sober “since October ’05”, is taking Osbourne’s joke pretty hard.
She doesn’t seem to think it’s fair that she is labeled a crackhead while Kelly has had her own share of drug problems, saying:
“This girl I know, Kelly Osbourne, I’ve saved her life twice. I’ve done CPR, I’ve put things in her boobs. [She was on] Oxycontin, cocaine, foaming at the mouth.”
Courtney even dropped a bomb that Sharon Osbourne had paid a publicist hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep Kelly’s “huge drug problem” out of the media.
Perhaps she was most hurt because she considers Kelly a friend and said:
“Kelly and me get along great … but it’s gross. I don’t like being the punchline for drugs when I don’t do them, so stop it.”
It sounds like they both have had drug troubles in the past, but through it all, have developed some kind of a friendship.
We wish Courtney the best as she continues her sober journey and hope these two can work out this issue.
Do U think it was fair for Kelly to criticize Courtney for her drug problems on television?
