Hole was all over MTV and alt rock radio during the mid-'90s, but its members all suffered terrible tragedies throughout their lives, before and after the band broke up. Here's a look at the tragic real-life story of Hole.

Wild and complicated adults the kind who become hard-living rock stars often start out as troubled kids and teenagers. That's definitely the path followed by Hole mastermind Courtney Love. Born Courtney Michelle Harrison in 1964, her parents had split by the end of the decade. Her mother, therapist Linda Carroll, divorced Courtney's father, Grateful Dead biographer Hank Harrison, and, according to SFGate, retained full custody after alleging that he'd given their toddler daughter LSD.

Carroll remarried and divorced a few more times and at one point moved to New Zealand, taking Courtney with her. The future rock star was later thrown out of her boarding school and sent back to the US, where she lived with a friend of her mother's in Oregon.

As a junior high student, Love befriended three teenage prostitutes. She told The Sunday Times:

"I just wanted to hang out with them. I ended up going through the juvenile system with them because I got arrested shoplifting a Kiss T-shirt."

This led to a stint at the Hillcrest Youth Correctional Facility in Salem, Oregon, and, at age 16, Love's mother emancipated her, setting Love off on a worldwide walkabout that lasted for years. At 17, she found steady employment. As her father put it:

"She was topless dancing in Portland. She was underage so she changed her name [to Courtney Love]." Keep watching the video to see the tragic details about Hole.
