Celebrity Skin (song)

"Celebrity Skin" is the debut single of Hole's album of the same name. The song was co-written by Courtney Love, Billy Corgan, and guitarist Eric Erlandson. It is Hole's most commercially successful single, being the only one to reach number one on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart. According to Love, Corgan wrote only the song's main guitar riff.

Courtney Love sang the song with The Smashing Pumpkins at the 30th Anniversary Show in New Jersey. During banter before and after the performance, Love praises Corgan for his insistence to pursue the song, owing her success, screaming "BILLY'S ALWAYS RIGHT!".
