In an interview with The Standard, singer Courtney Love, 59, openly criticized Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Madonna, and Beyoncé. Love deemed Taylor as “not important” and revealed her unfavorable relationship with Madonna. Her candid remarks shed light on her perspective on these music industry icons.
Singer Courtney Love had some criticism for some fellow recording artists, which she candidly shared during a recently published interview with U.K.-based outlet The Standard.
The 59-year-old took aim at Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Madonna, and Beyoncé specifically.
“Taylor is not important,” Love told the outlet of the global pop star. “She might be a safe space for girls, and she’s probably the Madonna of now, but she’s not interesting as an artist.”
The alt-rocker said she and the Material Girl don’t get along, either.
“I don’t like her and she doesn’t like me,” Love said of Madonna. “I loved [the 1985 American comedy-drama film] ‘Desperately Seeking Susan,’ but for the city of New York as much as her.”
At another point in the interview, the former Hole band member said she’s also not a fan of Beyoncé’s new album, Cowboy Carter.
“I mean, I like the idea of Beyoncé doing a country record because it’s about black women going into spaces where previously only white women have been allowed, not that I like it much. As a concept, I love it. I just don’t like her music,” she explained.
She also voiced her critique of Grammy-nominated singer Del Rey: “I haven’t liked Lana since she covered a John Denver song, and I think she should really take seven years off. Up until ‘Take Me Home Country Roads,’ I thought she was great. When I was recording my new album, I had to stop listening to her as she was influencing me too much.”

Love went on to say that contemporary artists overall sound too much alike. “It’s great that there are so many successful women in the music industry, but lots of them are becoming a cliché,” she told the outlet. “Now, every successful woman is cloned, so there is just too much music. They’re all the same. If you play something on Spotify, you get bombarded with a lot of stuff that’s exactly the same.”
Love is best known for her rise to fame in the alternative and grunge scenes of the 1990s as a member of the band Hole, plus for her marriage to fellow rock star Kurt Cobain. She also appeared in several films in the early 2000s.
