“Someone just saw a picture of her in a magazine and sent me the script for ‘Twilight,'” Love told Howard Stern.

 
To make a long movie short, Frances turned down the role.. She was thirteen at the time and her mom was quick to point out that’s she’s now grateful, “It would have destroyed her life.” I really think that’s debatable.

Courtney Love was a fairly good actress in her time and actually landed some winning roles.
