Courtney Love Insults Designer on Twitter, Gets Sued

There are some things you can always count on. Things like Courtney Love. She may clean herself up and become a “serious actress” one minute, but you can bet that, like clockwork, she’ll be back to that old, loveable, mic throwing Courtney the next. You see, her methods of delivery may change over time, but the message will stay the same.

Love and fashion designer Dawn Simorangkir have been having a Twitter fight–and by “Twitter fight,” I mean, of course, that Love has been yelling at Simorangkir on Twitter. The parties have been fighting over a $4,000 payment, and Love has taken her message to the microblogging site, calling Simorangkir a “drug-addled prostitute,” a “nasty, lying, hosebag thief” (hosebag?), and a “52 year old desperate cokes ass [sic].”

Oh, and it gets better–she’s also threatened the designer, stating that she would wind “up in a circle of corched eaeth hunted til your dead [sic, sic, sic].” Her one women screaming campaign has also lead to posts on MySpace and online craft storefront Etsy.

Simorangkir fired back in 2009, with a suit against Love, featuring 20 some pages worth of examples. Not above personal judgments of her own, the libel suit says that Love has “drug induced psychosis, a warped understanding of reality, or the belief that her money and fame allow her to disregard the law.”

Love attorney James Janowitz, is taking a strongish stand on the matter. “We don’t believe there’s any defamation, and even if there were defamatory statements, there was no damage.”
