Courtney Love Vows to Gain Weight

Courtney looked alarmingly thin in this photo published last month.
Courtney Love made headlines last month when the paparazzi captured her looking gaunt to the point of illness on the streets of Hollywood.

Now Courtney has reportedly admitted to being malnourished. In an interview with UK mag Grazia (via The Daily Mail), Courtney said she's been ordered to gain weight by a doctor - but she doesn't have an eating disorder:
I know I've got too skinny. I know I need to sort it out. I am going to put on 15 lbs in one month. I do not have body dysmorphia. Seriously, I want to get fatter. You know, when I was 192 lbs, I thought I looked hot! My doctor gave me a massive shot of vitamins and told me to start eating. I need to start working out again. It's the stress - you have no idea what it has been like these last few months. I need to get to the bottom of this fraud, I need answers.
The "fraud" to which Courtney refers is her conviction that people have been sapping money from Kurt Cobain's estate by using his social security number over the past several years.

Courtney, meanwhile, has been sued by American Express for alleged failure to pay a bill to the tune of $352,059.67. She's also been sued by fashion designer Dawn Simorangkir for libel.

Love, who once said she wanted gastic bypass surgery, says she just wasn't paying attention to how much weight she'd lost:
S---, I thought I was like 130 lbs, but I'm 118 lbs and I'm 5'10", that's not good for someone my height.
