Before she kills someone.
Downward Spiral
Courtney raises hell in New York

It's hard to believe Courtney Love is really 39. While many people that age worry about 401k's and carpools, Courtney only seems concerned with stirring up trouble. In just a few short hours in New York, the on-the-edge celeb, who is already facing drug charges in California, managed to make headlines with her out-of-control behavior.
If you only caught her boob-flashing on "The Late Show" with David Letterman, here's a rundown of the train wreck that was Love's cry-for-help visit to the Big Apple...
On Wednesday evening, after taping her rambling, bizarre appearance on Letterman, during which she bared her breasts to the befuddled host no fewer than half a dozen times, Love was apparently feeling peckish, so she headed -- ew, barefoot -- to Wendy's for a burger. There, say New York tabloids, she not only lifted her shirt for photographers but allowed a random guy to buss her breasts (if you're truly determined, you can find the photo online).
After that, she stopped by Irving Plaza to see hot Aussie rockers Jet, whom she wanted to join on stage, according to the New York Post. Promoters, apparently sensing trouble, refused. "History could have been made tonight," Love allegedly fumed. The Post says that before she departed, she -- yawn -- flashed the band her breasts.
History, of a sort, was made later that evening, when Love took the stage at Plaid. The Post relates that between numbers, Love yelled to the crowd, "Get the Jameson. Get the Cristal. Get me all the money in the bank so I can get my daughter back," referring to 11-year-old Frances Bean, whom she has temporarily lost custody of. She also announced, "I'm not on drugs."
"She looked like she was feeling no pain," Village Voice columnist Michael Musto tells the New York Times, "but I wouldn't expect anything else from a punk legend."
What happened next is still under investigation, but Love allegedly clocked an audience member in the head with a metal mike stand.
"I always thought she was kind of dangerous," Greg Burgett, 23, of Kentucky, told the Post after receiving three staples in his noggin. "Turns out I was right. There was blood all over my face."
Love was arrested on misdemeanor assault and reckless endangerment charges and spent the night in the pokey. "She was very upset," Peggy Millard, the owner of Plaid, tells the Times. "She didn't realize she had done anything wrong."
According to the Post, Courtney insisted to the boys in blue that she was innocent, sobbing, "I didn't do it, I didn't do it." A police source adds to the Daily News that while Love sat at the stationhouse, "Someone had to bring her pants. All she had on was some see-through leotards or something."
Love was released Thursday morning and a friend tells the News that the motor-mouthed star "didn't let out a peep all day. She's so devastated."
On Thursday night, Courtney reportedly arrived two hours late for her sold-out performance at the Bowery Ballroom and opened by telling the crowd, "If any of you guys plan on getting injured, please move outside and get arrested." The Post claims she had trouble warbling her way through the set. "My voice has gone to hell," she railed. "That's what a jail cell does to it."
Insists Love's publicist, "We believe she will be vindicated."
