Courtney Love has a message for Lana Del Rey

Courtney love 1

During a concert in Sydney, Australia last week, pop singer Lana Del Rey performed a heartfelt cover of Nirvana's classic grunge ballad "Heart-Shaped Box."

A week later, Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain's widow Courtney Love reached out to the rising star via Twitter to provide some helpful background information on the inspiration behind the song's lyrics.

"You do know the song is about my Vagina right?" Love tweeted at Del Rey. "'Throw down your umbilical noose so i can climb right back,' umm... On top of which some of the lyrics about my vagina I contributed. So umm next time you sing it, think about my vagina will you?" 

Love's tweets have since been deleted but fortunately Stereogum has posted the screen grabs.
