Courtney Love "flipped out" and at a hotel in New York on Sunday.
The Hole singer was disturbed as she took part in interactive play Forgotten, and had to run for the exit, according to the New York Post. Courtney was at the city's McKittrick Hotel, where she was immersed in a dramatic rendition of writer Jay McInerney's new play. According to sources, the immersive experience started with Courtney and other guests walking "down a long hallway." They then proceeded into "different rooms with nearly identical blond models in pink nighties" who were "taking pills, writhing on a couch or smoking cigarettes."
Even though the people in the rooms were all actors, this quickly became too much for Courtney, and she fled from the hotel. Also at the evening were Brooke Shields, painter Will Cotton and Sex and the City writer Candace Bushnell.
Rocker Courtney is no stranger to erratic behavior in hotels, and was in 2010 refused a stay at Claridge's in London after she managed to set fire to her suite on a previous stay.

Jennifer Lopez Wants to Adopt
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Celebrity Babies, Kind Acts,
Jennifer Lopez wants to adopt. The American Idol judge already has four-year-old twins Max and Emme with estranged husband Marc Anthony but after working with siblings who had been adopted from Ethiopia after their mother died on new movie What to Expect When You're Expecting, Jennifer is considering the "selfless act."
"It's funny because before the movie I never really thought about adoption, I just always wanted to have my own baby and I was so focused on that and it took me a while to have my own. But after the film and during the making of the film when I held those two little Ethiopian twins I fell in love instantly and I can see how somebody can do this, how it is so easy to embrace a child who has nothing. It's a beautiful, selfless act of love and it's something that you go, 'OK, I understand these feelings, I get this.' I almost took those babies home. I fell in love with those babies."
However, right now Jennifer - who is dating backing dancer Casper Smart - says she is kept busy raising Max and Emme: "[Adoption] would be a blessing but I'm focused on doing it right with those two and I've really got my hands full."

Kris Jenner threw a baby shower for her daughter Kourtney Kardashian on Saturday.
The showbiz matriarch was assisted by party planner Sharon Sacks in organising the bash for her 33-year-old daughter - who is expecting her second child, a girl, with partner Scott Disick - at her Californian home, with around 90 guests.
"Kourtney's shower was so nice!. Her mom and sisters were there, of course. They talked, laughed, and played games. There was a bar and lots of different types of foods and desserts, including sushi and little sandwiches. She seemed happy and excited earlier in the day before the shower. There were about 90 people at 10 tables," a source said.
Because Kourtney - who already has a two-year-old son, Mason, with Scott - is expecting a daughter, the party had a pink theme.

John Travolta Accuser Wants Private Trial
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors,
A masseur who accused John Travolta of sexual assault is willing to drop his federal proceedings against the star.
The unnamed man - who is known as John Doe #2 - is willing to have the matter settled in a private trial, though no deal has yet been agreed with the actor's legal representative Marty Singer. "I can dismiss the federal filing and we can set up our own private trial. I'm willing to do that, and I've proposed that to Marty Singer. [Singer] hasn't agreed, but he hasn't said no. We are speaking, but we haven't hammered something out. He wants to fight this thing all the way through. They've made it clear. I'm ready to fight. I might leave in a bodybag, but never in cuffs. It would be a great case to see on Court TV, to see the royal rumble," the masseur's lawyer Okorie Okorocha told the New York Daily News newspaper.
The lawyer believes a private trial would be much faster than public proceedings and maintain the privacy of his client - the second man to have stepped forward to have made accusations against the Pulp Fiction star - whom he describes as a "reserved" family man.

Mena Suvari's estranged husband wants her to pay him $17,000 a month in spousal support.
The American Pie Reunion actress split from Simone Sestito last November after less than two years of marriage, and now the concert promoter has claimed he has "negative balances" on all his personal and business accounts.
According to court documents filed earlier this week - which have been obtained by TMZ.com - Simone also says he has been forced to pay his bills with credit cards and loans from his parents. So he is now asking for $17,000 a month from Mena as part of their divorce settlement as he claims the American Beauty star earns $750,000 a year.
Mena - whose five-year union to first husband cinematographer Robert Brinkmann ended in 2005 - recently admitted all her exes end up hating her and she isn't on good terms with any of them: "I've never run into an ex who I have fallen back in love with. They all end up hating me. I just keep moving on. I don't like going back, I think that's unhealthy."

Beyonce has been sued for $100 million by a video game developer.
Gate Five claims that the "Listen" star went back on her word for a $20 million deal for the proposed game named Starpower: Beyonce. Legal representatives for the 30-year-old singer insisted that she had the choice to back out of the agreement after she discovered that the company had not come up with the necessary budget for what was needed to create the product named after her.
Gate Five, however, has replied that she unfairly pulled out only three days before she was supposed to officially sign a contract with them back in December 2010. They maintain that her actions resulted in them losing millions of dollars and having to fire 70 employees.
The New York Post reports that Justice Charles Ramos has allowed the lawsuit to go to trial, as Beyonce should have given the company notice before quitting the deal. Beyonce has declined any comment on the matter.
Chris Hemsworth has become a father for the first time.
The Avengers actor's wife Elsa Pataky gave birth to a little girl in London on Friday and, according to US Weekly, the couple have named the tot India. No further information has been released.
The couple - who married in December 2010 - announced the happy news earlier this year and Spanish actress Elsa said they were thrilled about their impending arrival: "Having the person that you love by your side and starting a family with them is the best thing that can happen to you in this life. You can't ask for more. I want to have a big family, and so does Chris. My dream is to have more than one child."
Elsa also said she plans to speak to the tot in her native tongue and joked Australian Chris would need to start brushing up on his Spanish. "I'm only going to speak to the baby in Spanish. I already told my husband, 'Get ready fast with Spanish because, if not, you're not going to be able to understand what we say."
Eva Green finds relationships "hard work."
The 31-year-old actress enjoys the early days of her romances, but thinks she gives too much of herself when she falls in love.
"I don't like flirting and when I love someone I always give everything, maybe too much. And then you have to work at it all the time. I mean, the first months are always great but afterwards it becomes hard work. It's not as passionate and crazy," she said.
The Dark Shadows beauty - who has previously dated actors Yann Claassen and Marton Csokas - now can't imagine sharing her space with other people and thinks it is important not to give all of herself over to another person: "I think I wouldn't be able to live with somebody now. I've decided I think it's nice to be independent and have your own space. The routine is kind of scary for me. It's nice to remain - not mysterious - but not to share everything. I think that's dangerous."
