I think Courtney Love looked sexier then, before she had all the plastic surgery. She wasn’t pretty, but she was interesting looking. She looked like like trouble, sex, and fun. I really hate what she’s made herself into now. It was cool to have a talented woman who didn’t look like a part-time model make it big in the hypersexualized music industry. Then she got lots of money and shat all over that progress just so she could look like a double-wide trailer-park version of playboy bunny.
In stark contrast, Kim Gordon has maintained reasonable dignity relative to other mature female rockers (in spite of being involved in the fashion industry and designing vulgar $400 hoodies for the likes of Urban Outfitters). Oddly, a lot of 90s era rock women seem to end up migrating to fashion (art school types, so maybe not so odd after all). Sean Yseult (50% of why White Zombie was awesome) apparently designed high-end scarves or some shit.
It makes me wonder if Joan Jett designed any overpriced rags for rich bitch boutiques. I’d google around but part of me knows I will die a little if she put her name on $600 pleather shrugs or a signature line of blackheart boy shorts. Ugh.
