Courtney Love has said sorry to Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan.

Yes, you read that correctly – A.P.O.L.O.G.I.S.E.D. The pair fell out after collaborating on new music, with the Smashing Pumpkins main man insisting Love could do nothing with the songs they were working on without his permission. Courtney initially reacted by claiming she already had his say-so and that Corgan “was talking out of his arse”.

Now, the Hole leader has done a total about-face, by issuing the following:

“Dearest Billy: I love you, I love your strong and eternal heart, even love the fucked up gnarly amazing magnificent bigger-than-god louder-than-love karma of the songs you write and allow me to fly with.

“We have again created beauty from the agony between us, all the buried and unburied anguish, all that is true, that is gold, that is meant to be is within this endless and somehow eternal cycle of Billy & Courtney.

“I hope you will take my sincerest apologies for all the thousand ways I sometimes offend you, because I know you are a king, a prince, and my beautiful noble boy. No one will ever force my hand, nothing will come between the truth of what we are”.

This couldn’t have anything to do with the new Hole album, Nobody’s Daughter, being about to drop?

If next week Axl Rose apologises to Vince Neil, then we know we’ve entered the messianic age!
