More than 90% of Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees are men, and Courtney Love thinks women deserve better courtneylove rock&rollhalloffame
Hole frontwoman and guitarist Courtney Love is calling out the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for remaining a boys club, nearly 40 years after its inception. In a viral instagram carousel, Love shares a text conversation she had with Dave Grohl, drummer of Nirvana and friend of Love’s late husband Kurt Cobain, explaining why she’s pissed about the famed awards ceremony.
Love also shared a tweet from music critic Jessica Hopper, who responded to an article from Musical Connection called “Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Celebrates Women Who Rock.” Though the article is about a series of Women’s History Month events hosted by The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Hopper is quick to point out the hypocrisy of the celebration. Love isn’t the first musician to criticize the sexist nature of The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
She goes on to imply she dropped out of the performance because she’s “at a point in my life where there’s no need for me to spend time in an environment that reduces women.” This year’s roster still falls short of the “female-centric” class of 2021, which included six solo female nominees as well as the members of the Go-Go’s. Of that class, only Tina Turner, Carole King and the Go-Go’s were actually induced.
