COURTNEY LOVE Slams FRED DURST

May 6, 2010

The Pulse of Radio reports that Courtney Love slammed LIMP BIZKIT frontman Fred Durst last Saturday night (May 1) during a performance at a radio festival in Dallas where both her band HOLE and LIMP BIZKIT were appearing. According to SFGate.com, Love took the opportunity between songs during HOLE's Edgefest set to put down Durst and LIMP BIZKIT's 1999 hit "Nookie", saying, "I have to say, as much as I like Fred, he brought about the worst years in rock history. That just be (sic) a fact, OK? That just be a fact. 'I did it for the nookie!' I did not do it for the nookie, I did it for the rock! I'm just saying, man, he's a nice guy, but Jesus!"

Love then called out — and gave the middle finger to — a concertgoer who was wearing a hat similar to Durst's trademark red baseball cap.

She said, "I see (a) guy with (a) backwards baseball cap. Dude, you! You scare me! You make me feel like you're going to rape me or something, and all my children! You did it for the nookie, dude in the red baseball hat! Do you know one word to one (HOLE) song? That is so lame. I'm so sorry, you're here for the nookie! I could beat your ass."

There was no word on whether Durst heard about or responded to Love's comments.

HOLE is touring in support of its first album in 12 years, "Nobody's Daughter", while LIMP BIZKIT's first full-length record with its original lineup in 11 years, "Gold Cobra", arrives this summer.
