Billy Calls Out Courtney

Smashing Pumpkins nucleus Billy Corgan appears to have had enough of Courtney Love‘s general batshittery and gnawing every hand that feeds her down to a bloody stump, and this morning gave the chief Hole a pull-no-punches piece of his mind.

Corgan took to his Twitter account this morning to share a few words of wisdom with Miss Love. He called her out on being a shitty songwriter who can’t stand on her own, her relentless insanity on Facebook and the squandering of her husband’s fortune. He stepped into full ohnoyoudi’int territory when calling Courtney out on her irresponsible behavior that resulted in custody loss and a restraining order from her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain.

Corgan’s demanded that she not release any songs they worked on together after having had enough of Love’s antics. “[If she does release them] it would be a real big problem, because I haven’t given my permission,” he told Rolling Stone. “After almost 20 years of friendship, I have decided to break all ties to Courtney. I don’t want anything to do with her. I have no interest in supporting her in any way, shape or form. You can’t throw enough things down the abyss with a person like that.”

Here are Corgan’s words verbatim. The beginning of each tweet is bolded to indicate where one ends and the other begins (if line breaks are too bothersome on this Mondayest of mornings):

Thought #1: my face is my face, my heart is my heart, my money is my money. Oh, and my songs are MY songs+If you can’t write your own songs?

Thought #2: if you can’t write your own songs maybe you should just be happy that you fooled someone into doing your work for you..

Or, thought #3: maybe you should go someone nice+live off your husband’s money, u know the money he made for writing all those great songs.

Thought #4: when you issue someone an apology on YOUR facebook page you might actually mean it and take responsibility for it. But…

Thought #5: the world is aware of your lack of responsibility, as seen in the gov’t taking away your parental right. Only you could abandon!

Only u could abandon such a beautiful, incredible child who is smarter than u, cooler than u, and better than u. Oops, did I say too much?

Thought #6: so have your moment, burn up in the sun that laughs at u as equally as it appears to celebrate u+sleep knowing u have no honor.

We can’t help but feel more than a little satisfaction in knowing that this fraud of a hack-ass musician is getting called out by her contemporaries. We’re popping the popcorn in anticipation of Love’s incoherent, run-on rebuttal, which should be turning up soon. And when the record flops as badly as it sucks, the pill-poppin’, Twitter-ranting rock whore will undoubtedly bake up another wild batch of anti-semitic lunatic conspiracy theories.
