Courtney Love’s Malibu shopping outfit is making my eyeballs go in opposite directions, but it probably makes total sense to her. That outfit screams medication adjustment needed. Shopping at the Village Idiot Clothing boutique is not a good idea Cokeney!

In the January issue of UK Elle, Courtney Love admitted she tried to convince a doctor to fit her with a gastric band. The doctor refused because Courtney “wasn’t that fat,” so instead the 44 year old singer had some wack liposuction on her stomach.

“Baby, if I could get a gastric band I would! I’ve heard it’s a lot of vomiting and a pain in the ass, but it’s still easier than a diet.

“I did go to see a Hollywood doctor about it. I wasn’t desperate, I just knew I had to do something. He said no. I might have been fat, but I wasn’t that fat. I tried lipo on my stomach after that. It was horrible and it didn’t work.”

In case you’ve forgotten just how awesome Courtney’s lipo’d tummy looked, here’s a photo to remind you.

Courtney Love has had gastric bypass surgery to lose weight, and is rather amused that we all bought her story that the loss came from half starving herself and detoxing.

The former Hole singer, 44, once wrote on her blog that she was inspired to lose weight by Oprah Winfrey who got thin by drinking slimming drinks.

But a source told the the News of the World: ‘Courtney keeps laughing to her friends and saying, ‘Everyone thinks I’ve had hypnosis but why bother with all that effort? All I did was check myself in and have a fat band fitted’.

‘Courtney has always had problems with her appearance and is convinced she is ugly and fat. Two years ago she had a gastric band fitted at a surgery in Beverly Hills.

‘Lots of doctors refused to do it as she was nowhere near obese, just a little overweight, but eventually she found one.

‘And as soon as she had the operation the excess weight started to drop off her. Now she is just skin and bones and looks terrible.’

Well, I figured as much. You don’t get that hot without the aid of a doctor’s steady hand. Or at least the steady hand of an evil scientist with a sack of exhumed corpses and a carpet needle. Diet and exercise can go fuck themselves!
