Courtney Love made a series of allegations against Dave Grohl and Trent Reznor in now deleted Instagram post.
Love claimed she signed a contract giving Grohl her "descendants money in perpetuity" because she was "broken" and "exhausted by him". Love also wrote that Grohl "enriched and continues to enrich himself, gorging on Kurt’s fortune and Kurt’s goodwill" and that she's had enough.
As for Trent Reznor, Love accused him of "systematic child abuse", claiming she and her bandmates from Hole witnessed him and his crew abusing "girls as young as 12".
"So while these two jack asses are not my #metoo’s because I’m saving my 1 up (because we only get 1) they’re darn close." Love continued.
"#fuckoff @treznor @nineinchnails @foofighters I really hope my example of standing up to them, putting a stop to them, will prevent any other women (or men) from this soul shattering level of personal and cultural abuse in future. Sexually, spiritually, financially.. #metoo #me3 #me88 etc etc ad nauseam. #blessed? Yeah to be breathing long enough to tell the tale. I’m cramming as much into every song as I can. Nam myoho renge kyo. ‘We are not doormats."
A few days later Love took to Instagram again, issuing an apology: “I need to apologize for my recent post. It was insensitive and it was wrong. No matter how I feel, there are real people behind my words and I need to learn to be more responsible with my words. I am truly sorry for those I’ve hurt and I will do better.”
