In an interesting new pairing, Courtney Love has revealed that she is Lindsay Lohan's new sobriety coach.  The Hole singer and widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain has battled alcohol and drug addiction in the past and now wants to lend a helping hand to the troubled Mean Girls actress (who has been in rehab FIVE times).

Love opened up to Details magazine, saying, "I've taken up Lohan because nobody else will. [She's] further down the line than I was, because there was no [gossip websites like] TMZ then."

This is not the first time Courtney, 47, has helped 25-year-old Lindsay with her addiction. "I went up to Lindsay's room one time and there was a show on called '101 Celebrity Oops' and I am like every other one, you know - boobs out, legs everywhere, throwing s**t at Madonna, you know, whatever. I'm like 'Lindsay, look! Drugs are bad!'"

It seems Courtney is merely paying it forward though, as she had help from her celeb pals in the past while overcoming her addictions, including Orlando Bloom.  "I love Orlando for this. He doesn't mind being outed as a Buddhist. I don't mind talking about it because it has changed my entire life, changed everything - restructured my body, restructured my physicality," she said of the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.

Lindsay, who has been in quite a large amount of trouble with the law lately is currently completing her court ordered community service.
