Courtney Love Sued For Defamation Over Twitter Rants

January 5, 2011
Courtney Love Sued For Defamation Over Twitter RantsCourtney Love has become the first celebrity to be sued for her recent Twitter rants.

The Hole singer is being sued by Fashion designer Dawn Simorangkir for posting a number of inappropriate comments over Twitter.

The series of posts include: "She has received a vast amount of money from me over $40,000 dollars and I do not make people famous and get raped too!"

The singer's lawyer said: "We don't believe there's any defamation, and even if there were defamatory statements, there was no damage."

Courtney Love will appear in Court in Los Angeles on January 18.
