Courtney Love has given her blessing to former Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson’s book about her late husband Kurt Cobain, as long as he leaves out details of Eric and Courtney’s short-lived romance. Erlandson has written a poetry book about Kurt, due next month. Love has surprisingly sanctioned the book – on condition he keeps these details out.  “I wish him well. Even more than (Nirvana’s) Dave (Grohl) and (Krist) Novoselic, Eric was family… I just hope he didn’t write that we dated. We (were intimate), yes, but I don’t date.”

Why am I not surprised?
