Argento: 'I Don't Play Love'

  • 13 May 2005

[Asia Argento](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/asia-argento) has blasted reports she portrays rock widow [Courtney Love](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/courtney-love) in LAST DAYS - a screen tribute to late grunge icon [Kurt Cobain](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/kurt-cobain).

The Latina beauty insists her character is very different from Cobain's former wife.

However, she concedes working on the [Gus Van Sant](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/gus-van-sant) film, which premieres at this year's [Cannes Film Festival](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/cannes-film-festival) this month (MAY05), brought her closer to Love's plight.

Argento says, "It's been written that I play Courtney Love, and it's not true. I'm so upset. I don't know why people say that.

"I feel very sorry for her. She's been demonised and I feel sorry for anybody that's lost like that.

"But no, I play a character that's very dorky."
