Courtney Love has called Madonna "weak".

Writing on her blog, Love has questioned Madonna’s validity as an artist.

She wrote: “Madonna is a great business woman but come on, she’s weak as an arists and we all know it. I like Madge but as a relevant musician it’s a joke. She’s singing from such a calculating thought out place all the time. It’s never from her gut or heart of intuition, so maybe it sounds great and slick and you can hum it.

“Disco and dance it but ambition and ass and shrewd does not equal great art - hard work and major discipline doesn’t equal great art and all of those are great things - I covert them. I have great discipline and I do work like a bionic thing.”
