Courtney Love Wants Scarlett Johansson to Play Her

Courtney Love is either confused, or her perma-beer goggles are doing their thing again. Love thinks that she bears a strong resemblance to the elegant, A-list actress, Scarlett Johansson. Ummm... not even on a good day, Courtney. Not even on a good day.

Love, who consistently earns paychecks by hawking her dead husband's music, has asked Johnasson to play her in a film about Kurt Cobain, which Love will produce.

The $70 million dollar project will be based on the biography of Cobain by Charles Cross, Heavier Than Heaven. Love has also asked Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling to play Cobain and plans to stay on the set during filming so that she can offer the pair her advice. No word on whether either stars have accepted the roles.
