Kurt Cobain's ashes stolen



NME
reported today that a bag containing the ashes of Kurt Cobain has been taken from the LA home of Courtney Love.

The location of the frontman’s remains has until now been kept secret, but they were thieved along with jewelery and clothes. Love told the newspaper, “I can’t believe anyone would take Kurt’s ashes from me. I find it disgusting and right now I’m suicidal. If I don’t get them back I don’t know what I’ll do.”

The ashes apparently were kept in “a pink teddy bear-shaped bag along with a lock of [Cobain’s] hair”.

“They were all I had left of my husband,” Love also revealed that. “I used to take them everywhere with me just so I could feel Kurt was still with me. Now it feels like I have lost him all over again.”

Maybe Kurt's back??? Maybe it was the hired killer?? Maybe Keith Richards has seen them???

Let the conspiracies begin.........
