A swanky California drug treatment facility claims that Courtney Love spent three months there in late-2005 and has since ignored demands to pay her outstanding $181,000 tab. In a Superior Court lawsuit, Beau Monde International charges that Love was treated at the firm's oceanfront Newport Beach property, a "boutique" rehab center that handles no more than five patients at a time. Beau Monde, according to its web site, offers spa and salon treatments, gourmet meals, poolside massages, and "luxurious fluffy robes and slippers." In the March 1 complaint, a copy of which you'll find below, Beau Monde alleges that Love, 42, paid $10,000 shortly after entering the facility in August 2005, but still owes it $181,286. The performer was ordered into rehab that month by a Los Angeles judge after she admitted violating her probation (which was imposed in connection with drug and assault pleas). Attached to the breach of contract lawsuit is a copy of Love's rehab bill, which includes "spa and other incidental costs" totaling about $36,000, and is addressed to Howard Weitzman, her criminal lawyer, and Warren Boyd, the singer's personal addiction counselor. Beau Monde's complaint also includes a copy of the facility's admissions agreement, which is in the name of "Courtney Love Cobain."
The Smoking Gun
So my friend said $180,000 is very expensive and he could understand why she wouldn't pay. I said to him, but think how much she saved on drugs and alcohol while she was in there. Probably would've cost her around the same amount? And if this is the same place that helped her kick habit, she should give them a bonus and instead of not paying them.

Courtney Love had her lips downsized and her nose widened during a recent trip to Paris, Us Weekly has learned. A source close to Love tells Us that the rocker flew to the City of Light shortly before Christmas to see a surgeon who specializes in "fixing" botched cosmetic surgery jobs. After years of sporting a collagen-injected pucker, the singer is "happy to have her mouth back,” according to a source. Love, 42, showed up to the Freedom Writers premiere looking swollen and covered in makeup in an apparent attempt to conceal the effects of the surgery. At the premiere, Us asked Love if it was true that she’d gotten more work done. “I’m not going to comment on that tonight,” she said. “I just think me looking human is cool." "She doesn’t want to talk about that one," says the source. "She wants the swelling to go down and for people not to tell.” Love recently swore off plastic surgery in a list of New Year’s Resolutions posted on her Web site (and later taken down, most likely on charges of incoherency). She vowed: “no more surgery for any reason other than medical until i really need it in my 60s.”

OK, that is not fair question because both are bad…but the after will give me nightmares. She looks like a lion.
