Courtney Love has given her approval to Post Malone‘s Nirvana tribute concert this weekend.
The ‘Hollywood’s Bleeding’ rapper revealed earlier this week that the tribute event will take place on Friday (April 24) at 11pm BST.
Fans are being asked to text a number – 817-270-6440 – in order to get more information about the event.
Providing her support, Love shared a screenshot of NME’s original news article about Malone’s plans for the event.
“Thank you @PostMalone @Who (worldhealthorganization) & @Google who will match 5 million $ in donations,” wrote Love.

Post Malone has frequently expressed his love for Kurt Cobain’s band. Back in 2016, he covered ‘Nevermind’ track ‘Lithium’ during a Coachella performance.
Meanwhile, Puddle Of Mudd have gone viral for their cover of Nirvana’s ‘About A Girl’ for all the wrong reasons.
The band recorded the cover for radio station SiriusXM back in January, but it has achieved viral fame in the last week after YouTube users began to take digs at vocalist Wes Scantlin’s bizarre effort at singing the song, in which he tries to imitate Cobain’s voice.
