Nobody's Daughter is the fourth studio album by American alternative rock band Hole, released worldwide on April 27, 2010 (see ) through Mercury Records. The album was originally conceived by Hole frontwoman Courtney Love as a solo project titled How Dirty Girls Get Clean, following her poorly received solo debut America's Sweetheart (2004). Much of the material featured on Nobody's Daughter originated from studio sessions for How Dirty Girls Get Clean, which had been conceived in 2006 after a multitude of legal issues, drug addiction, and rehabilitation sentences had left Love "suicidal". Love financed the making of the record herself, which cost nearly two million dollars.
