Does being sober make you want to die?

Pete Doherty’s Attempted Suicide


No, the headline does not refer to his life in general, though that would have been a clever headline if it were written a few months ago.

The News Of The World reports that Babyshambles singer/songwriter Pete Doherty attempted to kill himself while in rehab when he heard about ex-girlfriend Kate Moss’ relationship with fellow ugly guy Jamie Hince. He took some pills, but ended up vomiting up all the pills before any ill effects took hold.

Says a source: "He saw an opportunity to take an overdose and took it. He told me he didn't know what the pills were but thought ‘fuck it' and took them all. He doesn't care what drugs do to him—in fact, he likes finding out."

Well, hopefully that’s all behind Pete now as he is 6 weeks sober, checked out of rehab and engaged to model Irina Lazareanu.

Always bad to have your sometimes girlfriend on the cover of your album

Kate Moss photo axed from Pete Doherty album

Atlanta, GA 9/29/2007 6:37 PM GMT (FINDITT)

Kate Moss posed for the cover of Pete Doherty’s band’s album but the photo has been axed from the ‘Babyshambles’ album in light of the pairs recent split.

Moss and Doherty split after the rocker cheated on Moss with an African model in July. Moss has reportedly moved on and is allegedly engaged to Jamie Hince.

Instead of using Moss’ provocative photos, record bosses decided to use stand-ins pictures for the album cover.

“The pictures of Kate were amazing. But no one knew who owned the copyright to them. After their nasty split they didn’t want to risk Kate or Agent Provocateur trying to sue them for using her image on the cover,” a source claims. “The decision to change the pictures wasn’t something Pete’s management or the record company took lightly.”

From one wreck to another

Tabloid Hell: Pete Doherty gives Kate Moss a dead mouse!

Babyshambles man thought a bunch of roses might be a tad cliché

24.Sep.07 10:12am

As is the case for any other day of the week ending with the letters "'D', 'A' and 'Y'", open the red tops today (September 24) and you'll find another in-no-way-made-up yarn about Pete Doherty being set to appear on The Weakest Link, feeding his kitten crack, sharing a bed with Shane McGowan or some such revelation.

Today he's given his ex, Kate Moss, a dead mouse as a gift, apparently.

Although there's no word on from where the news originated, let alone any quotes from the pair, after being inspired by Courtney Love (who he supposedly shared a Wetherspoons pub meal deal with recently), Pete's forked out for a rodent corpse encased in a brooch and sent it to the vacuum-nosed model.

"Pete is trying to emphasise how he feels about Kate - defeated, crushed and broken, like a dead animal," explained 'a source'.

Ex-girlfriend's birthday coming up, chaps? Just head down to the pet shop with a hammer...

When wrecks hookup

Tabloid Hell: Pete and Courtney go to Wetherspoons!

The pair supposedly went for a meal deal together

4 hours ago

OK, so there are no pictures of it, no quotes from either of them or even from anyone who was supposedly there but, according to our favourite red top today (September 18), Pete Doherty and Courtney Love trotted off together for a cheap pint in a 'Wetherspoons pub' yesterday.

Apparently, Courtney, who knows a thing or two about stuffing copious amounts of illegal substances into her mush and then getting through rehab successfully, headed to Pete's Wiltshire rehab retreat to share her knowledge with the Babyshambles man in an attempt to help him get on the straight and narrow.

Why they chose Wetherspoons for the hook-up, we've no idea. But according to an anonymous 'source', Pete thinks 'chatting to one of rock's great survivors is a great help and inspiration for him'.

She's a pretty cheap date by the sound of it, too.

Pete & Amy--the wreckage!

Pete Doherty Couldn't Hang With Amy Winehouse

September 03, 2007

I don’t know whether to laugh or to feel bad for Amy Winehouse. You know it’s pretty bad when a junkie like Pete Doherty can’t even ‘hang’ with you.

Pete Doherty was apparently with Amy Winehouse the day she overdosed and he quickly left the scene because he freaked out.

“They had a meal and a few drinks. They took a cocktail of drugs called a speedball; it's a mixture of heroin and cocaine. Amy couldn't take it, she is very lucky to be alive.

"She collapsed when they went back to her flat. Pete left because he didn't want any bad publicity. He didn't know how to deal with it and thought she was dying. She was foaming at the mouth and fitting - Pete had never seen anything like it."

Isn’t it sad that we used to make jokes that Pete and Amy should hook up. Well, there are reports that they did. WOW! Can you imagine these two having kids? That would just be wrong in so many levels.
