Courtney Love attacks man who walked in on her on the toilet
Ordinarily, I can’t really stand any Courtney Love story, but this one struck me. Page Six is reporting that Courtney attacked a defenseless man (a pharmacist!) at a party. It seems the guy, named Sebastian Karnaby (sidenote: there are pharmacists named Sebastian?) accidentally walked in on Courtney Love while she was using the bathroom. And yes, “using” means “her skirt [was] around her ankles.” Sebastian walked out quickly, but Courtney hiked up her skirt, quickly exited the bathroom, and began attacking the poor bastard. Sebastian claims that Courtney was like a “possessed woman” and that seeing her on the toilet wasn’t a “pretty sight”. Shiver.
Don’t interrupt Courtney Love while she’s in the bathroom.
The rocker “went nuts” when a guest at a party at the Standard Hotel opened an unlocked bathroom door and saw her on the toilet with her skirt around her ankles.
According to the astonished, unintentional intruder, Love flew out of the loo, launched herself at him and threatened to have him thrown out.
Sebastian Karnaby, a pharmacist, tells Page Six he was trying to leave the party for the Times’ T style magazine at the hotel’s new Boom Boom the other night when he had the encounter with Love.
He said, “I couldn’t find my way out and asked someone to show me the door.” He opened the door he was led to, and “there was Courtney Love, sitting on the toilet with her skirt around her ankles.”
Karnaby says he was shocked and slammed the door shut, but that wasn’t enough for Love. He relates, “She stormed out screaming, ‘I am going to get you thrown out!’ She jumped on me, went crazy and dragged me over to security by the arm and claimed that I’d attacked her.
“They were trying to calm her down, but she was out of control. She was like a possessed woman. I absolutely did not attack her — I was trying to get away,” Karnaby said. “Thankfully, she’d remembered to pull up her skirt.”
He says security told him, “It’s best you get away as fast as possible.”
“I never wanted to see Courtney Love on the toilet,” he said. “It wasn’t a pretty sight. I just wanted to get out of there.”
Enjoying the party in a more civilized fashion were editor Stefano Tonchi, co-hosts Jeff Koons and Simon Doonan, Josh Hartnett, Helena Christensen, and photographer Terry Richardson.
Other guests at the party confirmed Karnaby’s story. Love’s rep refused to comment.

That’s the kind of thing that would scar me for life – that is, the part about seeing Courtney on the toilet, not the part about her attacking me. At this point, Courtney has probably attacked most people in Los Angeles, London and New York. I would imagine everyone has their “Courtney Love went berserk on me and here’s the scar” story. I’ve actually had people walk in on me in the toilet before – you know how it is, you’re in some sketchy dive bar, the lock doesn’t work, and you really need to pee. I didn’t freak out, I just shouted “I’m in here, dude!” Because I’m classy.
