The ever-so-controversial Courtney Love is gracing the cover of Spin Magazine's March 2010 issue amidst her ongoing turmoil with daughter Frances Bean. Love’s cover look is somehow [patriotic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection) as she proclaims, “I’m tired of being the town witch.”

Photographed by Daniel Jackson, Courtney looks a little dazed and confused as usual sporting a pair of mouse ears, half gloves and a [skin-tight black dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty). The editorial entitled ‘The Nine Lives of Courtney Love’ sure says it all as she puts everything on the line with her [bold and risky new album](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/complicated-pinot-noir).
