Courtney Love has spoken out about the extent of Nirvana money she spent following the death of her late husband, Kurt Cobain. 

Love was speaking to The Australian Daily Telegraph's Sunday Style Magazine, the former Hole frontwoman turned solo icon seemed fairly nonchalant and casual about the money she lost. 

“I lost about $29 million — I know that’s a lifetime of money to most people, but I’m a big girl," she said. "It’s rock ‘n’ roll, it’s Nirvana money, I had to let it go.  "I make enough to live on, I’m financially solvent, I focus on what I make now."

Love went on to say that a great deal of the money was spent on settling various lawsuits - and that she's now paying off label suits, which she blames on her use of prescription drugs.

Meanwhile, Love recently revealed that she has ade progress in shooting a biopic movie about Cobain, which she hopes to have released in the next year. She is also expected to announce details of a solo album soon, after releasing comeback double A-side 'Wedding Day/You Know My Name' earlier this year and embarking on a critically-acclaimed world tour.
