After the Kate Moss/Sadie Frost thing fizzled out, Russell Brand reportedly has a new famous admirer: Courtney Love has told friends that she can’t stop thinking about him after he interviewed her for his MTV show Russell Brand’s Got Issues.

An inside source told the Daily Star: “Courtney thinks he is amazing and seriously funny. She is hoping to hook up with him when he flies to LA later this year and can’t wait for him to head out for Hollywood.”

Russell is apparently quite taken with Ms Love too and according to the newspapers has been sending her saucy text messages since they met.
