The queen of trash rock n' roll made an appearance at the Oxford Union to speak on Friday. She was about how I imagined her. Washed up, drugged up and I don't have much of a clue what she talked about because I couldn't understand her the first 20 minutes. It was pretty cool though. She was running late, so I went out to go the the bathroom and who walks in right be for me? Courtney. Her entourage asked me to wait 5 minutes to go in, but I went in anyways. I peed super quickly, just in enough time to see her walk out of the stall and leave the bathroom without washing her hands. Gross. It left a crew of British undergrad girls in the bathroom gasping and squealing in shock that she didn't wash her hands. Nice one Courtney.
The part of her speaking I did understand, she talked about her music career, some time she lived in England, and in Oregon (a shout out to Klamath Falls and Ashland - where I was living -I was shocked), she likes to listen to Mozart and she watches you tube videos about quantum physics. Hmmmm.. okay.
The Oxford Union is a pretty prestigious place where lots of famous people come and talk like the Dalai Lama, Winston Churchill, Bill Clinton and Mother Teresa, so I was really surprised that they had Courtney Love. Chris got to go afterwards and have drinks with her and about 20 other young Oxford undergrads. She went over to talk to him and some other guy, the other guy stood up out of his chair for her, but Chris stayed seated (burn!). He said she started to talk to them and then she sat on Chris's lap! He said she was really gross looking up close.
and the evidence...
I love this photo so much. These Brit boys with Courtney are extremely cute, nerdy and sort of Harry Potterish I think.
