Forget ‘Idol,’ Courtney Love Gets Coldplayed

LOS ANGELES (February 1, 2007) — Idol schmidle. Despite reports claiming Courtney Love had been asked to join the ever-popular talent search program, and later statements the offer was false, the singer?s real news lies across the pond.

Before the judging can even begin on the Simon-Randy-Paula fronted show, Access has exclusively learned the rocker will head to Britain to finish her second solo album with one of Coldplay?s album mixers, Danton Supple.

A source close to the star told Access Love will make the trip with the record?s producer, Linda Perry, the former Four Non-Blondes frontwoman whose magic touch helped catapult the careers of Pink, James Blunt and Christina Aguilera.

Tentatively titled How Dirty Girls Get Clean, the bulk of the writing and recording for the spring due release took place last year. Things recently stepped into high gear on the project when Love signed with The Firm management who represent Korn and Mandy Moore.

Current songs slated for Love?s record include ?Sunset Marquis,? ?Pacific Coast Highway? and ?Loser Dust.? In recent posts on her fansite MoonwashedRose.comthe rocker noted she has at least one new composition to add to the record. Called ?Samantha,? the cut is a collaboration between Love, former flame, Smashing Pumpkins’ frontman Billy Corgan, and Perry.
