The building's owner, Donna Lyon, claims Love has not only damaged the property, but also owes $50,000-plus in rent.
Lyon said Love, 46, wallpapered and painted a large portion of the property without her consent.
"This can't be my property," added Lyon, who said it will cost her $100,000 to restore the apartment. "I came to New York to see it and I was horrified by what she had done. The walls that had been hand-painted and glazed were ruined, covered in damask wallpaper and ice-blue paint."
In June, Love accidentally set a curtain on fire in her bedroom. "I got a call from her accountant, who said, 'Miss Love is fine,' which I was glad to hear," Lyon said. "But I thought, 'What about the house?'"
A court date is scheduled for Dec. 21 in civil court.
