Courtney Love has accused Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl of making sexual overtures to her 19-year-old daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, according to Gawker.

The widow of Kurt Cobain made the accusations last night, via the private Twitter account @cbabymichelle. The tweets sighted Love's estranged daughter's roommate as the source of her allegations.

In the Twitter rant, Love claims that Bean Cobain's roommate told her of incidents when the former Nirvana drummer hit on Frances.

@cbabymichelle: I hear from frannies roommate that @davegrohl hit on frances, and that she was curious, I'm not mad at her, him I am about to shoot, dead, Love tweeted.

In what ended up being a long sequence of tweets, Love ranted about a number of topics, among them Frances' boyfriend, inspirational tweets about Buddhism and the infamous Grohl accusations.

The Hole singer declared in the tweets that, according to a driver, Grohl had his hands all over Frances in his car.

@cbabymichelle: well if bean did have sex with @davegrohl which I've now heard reliable sources and a driver 3rd time, its fine on her part, he's insane, she tweeted later on.

Love even goes on to accuse Grohl of being sexually obsessed with Kurt, pointing out how Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins bears a striking resemblance to the late Cobain.

@cbabymichelle: @famousrichard @davegrohl look at his band lineup -- taylor Hawkins in the submissive drummer position looking like kurt,daughter ;violet? Love tweeted.

With respect to the violet reference, Love makes an effort to shed light on the fact that Grohl named his daughter Violet, which happens to be the name of one of Love's biggest hits. (We're confused, too).

According to Gawker, @davegrohl is not the Twitter account of Nirvana/Foo Fighters musician Dave Grohl, but of a German IT worker who has not tweeted since 2008.

Love's Twitter account, @cbabymichelle, is locked to the public, but Gawker has posted a screen capture collecting all of her tweets from last night accusational rant.

UPDATE: Dave Grohl has since released a statement on the accusations. Read it HERE
