Billy Corgan Knocks Himself Unconscious - Finishes The Show

It has been a rough week for singers. Earlier in the week Pink took a header in Germany and had to go to the hospital. Last night, Billy Corgan collapsed and fainted and was briefly unconscious. Despite this, and feeling like a rat in a cage, he was revived and then finished the show.

It happens about 20 seconds in. In case you can't watch the video, let me describe it for you.

People singing along to Bullet With Butterfly Wings. Then the music kicks in, the lights go crazy, your eyes feel like they are on overload and you begin to shake uncontrollably. Just when you say to yourself that Billy better get to the collapsing soon, you see him playing his guitar, take a step back, and then go boom.

Billy Corgan Takes Multiple Shots At Courtney Love

Throwing more fuel into the fire that Courtney Love can't write a song to save her life and that Hole's early success was thanks to Kurt Cobain's song writing skill, Billy Corgan took to his Twitter to take shots at Courtney Love for stealing his songs, Kurt's songs and for being a horrible mom. For her part, Courtney remained fairly quiet. She did say that she is always nice to Billy and if he wants to be mean she is not going to say anything. Everyone is talking about Hole's new album. I guess we know now why people like it. I just want to know how Billy managed to snag the Twitter i.d. Billy. He must have been one of the first people to sign up.

Jessica Simpson - Billy Corgan Song

Jessica Simpson's new song was released today. By new song I mean the song that she is going to use as the theme song for her new show. The plan is that people will love it and want to buy it and then Jessica will give them an entire album and she will be famous again and now she will be a real musician because Billy Corgan produced the song. You know I like Jessica. Honestly though this song sounds like every other song she has ever recorded. There is nothing special or memorable about it. It is a standard Jessica Simpson pre-country song. I have high hopes for the show though. Of course I also had high hopes for my lunch yesterday and it let me down. The bacon was too crispy.

This Is Even Worse Than Dating

I don't have anything against Jessica Simpson. As I have said previously it is her sister that I find without many redeeming qualities. Lat last year the rumors were flying that Jessica Simpson was dating Billy Corgan. That was strange, but not awful. What is awful is that they might not be dating but rather making songs together. Really? Is it going to be like 1979 meets Sweetest Sin? Is she going on tour with Billy? Is this going to turn into some kind of really bad version of Sonny & Cher? Will anyone ever take Billy seriously again?

From Jessica's Twitter - "I am blessed. Going over a song w (with) @billy..."

Billy Corgan & Jessica Simpson ??!!??

E! Online has the shocker of the day. Well actually I guess the shocker of the day was that Tiger Woods has managed to keep the women count under a dozen. But in other shocking news, Jessica Simpson is dating Billy Corgan. Yes, the same Billy Corgan who was at the top of your iPod and now could be some kind of punchline to a joke. Really? I never saw Billy getting involved in a tabloid relationship. Oh sure there was the whole Tila Tequila debacle, but really, other than that he has been pretty good about not letting himself get dragged into this kind of situation.

The E! News source says the couple consider themselves to be officially dating. Neither rep would comment on the rumor probably because Joe Simpson was wondering how he could use this to his advantage and the people at Billy's were probably crying.

I have nothing against Jessica. I like her. I can say that and mean it. I don't particularly care for her dad and I think Ashlee could be the second coming of hell, but Jessica I like. I just don't like the idea of this relationship at all.

Courtney Love Needs To Grow Up

I keep expecting Courtney Love to grow up, or get older or get a brain. You would just think that after 40 or so years on this earth that someone, no matter how many drugs they took would start to get their crap together. Apparently Courtney hasn't quite found that level yet though. She is kind of like Billy Madison, but is having trouble getting through that third grade year.

In her latest hieroglyphic rant on her MySpace page, Courtney lays into Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins because he isn't going to attend Fances Bean's 16th birthday. (I know, I know, the Bean is 16 and we are all ancient.)

Unless you are a parent or a child of the birthday person, since when is not coming to a birthday party a trashable offense?

"A sweet sixteen is a big event and I think she looked upon you as family. I know she did, as a trustworthy and wise (child), and you can't lay your shit on a child of nine, and you as a man of 40 - my child sobbing, due to you, is unacceptable. I hate stating this on some random public forum, but the line is the kid, man."

Umm, then don't state it in a forum. Pick up the phone and call him. What makes her rant really hard to understand is that she is referring to a child of nine. Now, Billy Corgan did live at the Love household for whatever reason back in 2006, but by my math that would have made Bean 14, and not 9. The nine could be referring to Courtney's age, or the number of drugs she takes everyday, but the kid is 16.

I also doubt that the Bean was crying that Billy wasn't going to come because of some emotional attachment, but rather the fact that she probably told all her friends he was going to be there and play or something. Is there a rule that says that anyone who has visited your house for longer than a couple of weeks has to attend your 16th birthday party because if there is, then I got seriously ripped off when it came to presents.

To make Billy feel even worse, the heroin one writes, "Gearrd Way (sic), who would do it in five seconds and has even asked and begged for his bandmate to cancel out on the honeymoon of his (coinciding with the sweet sixteen) so he can do it, made sure to promise to be there."

My Chemical Romance is a great band so everything should work out great. If Courtney's story is true, then if I were going on my honeymoon and Gerard asked me to do it, I would tell him to f**k off because as much as I love the Bean, it's your honeymoon. If I were the newly married wife I would be pissed. My guess is that said bandmate will not be there despite the threat of a heroin addled rant headed his way.
