Removal man chucks Courtney’s art work
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 6 April 2009
Courtney Love is pissed off because a removal man threw out a piece of art by accident. The £8k piece of work, by Polly Morgan, was a dead bird and a matchbox atop a plinth, so it’s easy to see how the chap in question might have made the mistake.
According to The Daily Mail, during the course of the move, the stuffed bird was removed from its plinth and left on a sideboard, and that’s how it came to be removed. A personal assistant charged with helping her move has allegedly been fired over the incident.
Anyway, here’s what one of those sources says on the matter: “Courtney has a ton of stuff, everything from a huge vintage clothing collection to a massive doll’s house collection. She also has art everywhere, a lot of it modern. She’s blazing mad and throwing a complete hissy fit because one of the removal men mistook her Polly Morgan for rubbish and threw it out with the trash.”
Ah well. I expect one day she’ll see the funny side. Maybe.
