Courtney Love relied on hookers to find drugs

London: Singer Courtney Love`s desperation to get high made her rely on prostitutes to help her find drugs when she was staying in unfamiliar places.

"I had this rock and roll trick that I would do. When I`d be in the worst (place)... like Cleveland (Ohio) or Cologne, Germany... I would call up a hooker agency and I would ask for the ugliest hooker, because the ugliest hooker would know (where to get drugs). They would think I was a lesbian and would come with all sorts of things (sex toys) and I`d be like, `No, no put it down, I just want to know where the drugs are.` So that was my trick", contactmusic.com quoted her saying. Love insists she`s now clean and sober, but she used to be so dependent on drugs she would call on sex workers to pay her a visit to help her find a dealer. IANS
