As the singer, guitarist, and prominent creative voice behind the '90s rock band Hole, Courtney Love entertained millions who related to her complex lyrics while also impressing critics.

Through Hole, Love sold a lot of records and became very famous for her extremely personal and melodically interesting hits like "Doll Parts," "Violet," "Miss World," and "Malibu." Then she became a household name, redefining the concept of a rock star for a new generation with her outspoken nature and publicly living her way through scandals and tragedies — particularly her relationship with fellow grunge icon Kurt Cobain, which ended with the latter's death.

She's also a feminist icon, an important figure in fashion, and a versatile actor.
