Courtney Stodden Has Created a Goth Alter Ego
Courtney Stodden, one-time child bride, is now 18 years old, and like so many other teenagers, she's experimenting with different aspects of her personality. One day she's a blonde bombshell, married to 50-something Doug Hutchison, and the next day she's...Courtland. Her goth alter ego.
Stodden made a video in character, wearing a black wig and fishnet stockings, and this Courtland person has some unkind words to say about Stodden.
"Courtney Stodden," Courtland slurs, "she's my sister, and she is a slut."
"I am from Washington state," she continues. "I would never move to Hollywood to marry some old, washed-up, D-list, saggy balls actor."
It's all said in character, but it does make one wonder if perhaps there is trouble in paradise.
Anyway, we have to hand it to Stodden; there are some funny bits in the video. One is when Courtland tells viewers to go to her band's website: facebook.com/cumballzofblud. The others are further along, when Stodden seems to really get into making fun of her haters. "Dourtney? Who names their dog Dourtney?" and referring to herself as "my gold-digging sister."
Somewhat well played, Stodden. Somewhat well played. Here's the whole video:
