Courtney Love has spoken out about on alleged comments Lily Allen made about her on MySpace.

The comments were widely reported, but Love said Allen claimed they were down to the fact that her MySpace site was hacked into.

Allen allegedly wrote: “I am not bfs (best friends) w/ (with) C (Courtney) Love, one night with her made me realise why Kurt (Cobain killed himself.”

Posting on Myspace.com/courtneylove, Love wrote: “Thanks to Lily Allen for her lovely apologising for having had her MySpace broken into.

“I wouldn’t pick on me if I was Miss Lily, as it wouldn’t take TOO much to swat, but we’ve known each other far too long, like each other far too much and if she was gonna say something nasty she has the acerbic wit and intelligence to say something cutting, that would actually really hurt, not some cliched hoary old chestnut some obsessed blogger would say.

“She tells me her MySpace was broken into - even if I REALLY think she did blog it mindlessly some 8am after being up far too long for a young healthy woman I don’t care and I appreciate and accept her thoughtfulness for apologising for what was printed, if she is telling the truth and it really doesn’t much matter - everyone slams everyone early in their careers, (Sonic Youth)’s Kim Gordon still slams me, I mean how much more boring can you get? (than Kim Gordon - slam!) Does anyone care?”
