Courtney Love looks like sh*t. I know, not exactly an “Extra!” moment here. She looks even worse than usual though, and that’s saying something. That’s like Kate Moss looking skinner than usual. Well, Kate Moss in the nineties. Actually, that’s also about how Courtney is looking these days, though she doesn’t pull off the look nearly as well. Love has been in New York recently and was snapped looking extremely emaciated – with Lindsay Lohan-like arms.

In the past three years she has gone from curvaceous rock star to Hollywood’s idea of slender perfection. But one look at Courtney Love this week shows she has now gone too far.

The 44-year-old singer looked shockingly frail when she was spotted in New York. Her sleeveless top and clingy grey leggings exposed just how thin she has become. Her face appeared pale and gaunt.

‘Courtney looked worryingly thin, like skin and bones,’ one onlooker said. ‘Her figure is so tiny that it made her head look too big for her body.’

Her visit is thought to be connected to the lawsuit American Express has filed against her over allegedly unpaid credit.

Miss Love, who was married to the late Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, has made no secret of her battle with her weight.

She began dieting in 2006 to lose the 45lb she piled on after managing to quit her long-standing drug habit. She eventually lost 52lb with the help of a diet of protein shakes, fish and vegetables.

Courtney’s long-standing drug habit may be rearing its head again. Whatever’s going on with her, she’s clearly been slipping further and further over the last year. Her arms look like something out of a Wes Craven movie. There are just bones everywhere – I swear there are seven jutting out of her wrist. And I never realized just how enormous her ears are. I think she’s lost so much weight from every other place that they’ve become much more noticeable. I shouldn’t even write that, somehow she’s going to lose lobe weight next.

Courtney, lay off the heroin. Or the diet. Whichever it is. Your arms look like spears. It’s probably illegal to take them on a plane.
