Pete gagged over wedding and drugs chat - June 14 2007

It sounds like Kate Moss wears the trousers in her relationship with Pete Doherty.

The troubled singer is due to appear on Jonathan Ross’s chat show next week - but Kate has reportedly banned him from talking about their wedding plans.

And the singer must also keep any talk about drugs to a minimum, according to The Sun.

A source told the newspaper: "Pete’s last interview was a brilliant success. He really opened up to Jonathan. But this time he and Kate are a proper item - and she’s worried what he might blurt out.

"She’s given him rules on what not to talk about. The wedding is absolutely off limits."

In a frank TV interview with Jonathan last year, Pete said of his and Kate’s turbulent relationship: "It’s right and wrong, up and down. She said, ’Give up smack, and never go on Jonathan Ross again!’.

"She’s had enough, I think. I love her bones, I always will."

He also said: "Being clean means I can sit down and rediscover writing. My song-writing suffered, being on drugs."

The programme showing Jonathan’s next interview with Pete will be broadcast on BBC One on June 22.

The following day, he will perform with Babyshambles at Glastonbury.


Pete to sue festival bosses? - June 4 2007

Pete Doherty is said to be considering legal action against the organisers of a dance festival who claimed he failed to show up for a gig.

Gatecrasher Sound System advertised the 28-year-old as a guest DJ for the event in Leeds on May 27, but his management say he was never even approached.

They issued a statement saying: "Pete’s supposed non-show was reported extensively in the media and, despite an admission from Gatecrasher that he was never booked to appear, they have so far refused to issue a public apology."

Adrian Hunter, manager for Pete’s band Babyshambles, added: "No approach was ever made to me for Peter to play at the event. Indeed the situation was quite the opposite with us asking them to remove him from promotional material.

"This is a common problem we encounter. In some cases we are advertised as playing events we have never heard of or agreed to do. In other cases other band members are performing / DJing at an event and the organisers imply that Peter will be there as a ploy to boost ticket sales."

Kate sees Pete’s footballing skills - May 21 2007

The celebrities turned out for the 20th Soccer Six tournament to raise money and awareness for the Samaritans.

Biography

It’s hard to believe that just a couple of years ago we didn’t even know who Pete Doherty was now that not a day goes by when another entry to the PD catalogue of disasters is published in the tabloids.

A long and drawn out battle with drugs, an especially fiery relationship with Croydon’s favourite daughter and any number of bust ups and arrests has made the singer/songwriter one of Britain’s most recognisable faces (all be it a screwed up, sweaty zombie face).

Born on March 12 1979 in Hexham, Northumberland and living at various times in Liverpool, Shepherd’s Bush, Coventry, Dorset, Cyprus and Russia, Pete Doherty first came to the public’s attention as one half of the singing songwriting duo who fronted Britain’s must see band, The Libertines, who kick started the country’s new garage rock scene in 2002/03.

Debauched backstage shenanigans and frantic but brilliant shows saw The Libertines hit the headlines time and time again and their debut album, Up The Bracket, shot up the charts. However, the band’s success was to be short lived and numerous problems, between Pete and the rest of the band (specifically with best friend Carl Barat - the pair met when they became flatmates in Stoke Newington) saw them part ways but not before Pete hit the headlines for drink and drug problems which caused him to steal from his bandmates to feed his habit.

It was around this time that Lisa Moorish gave birth to Doherty’s child, Astile but, rather than settling down Pete carried on taking heroin, selling his ’My Drug Hell’ stories to any and every tabloid to pay for his out of control habit before being put in to several rehab clinics (including a Thai monastery), none of which have changed his ways.

Nonetheless he has managed to forge a career on his own, first working with Wolfman on For Lovers then forming Babyshambles, initially as a way to make money for.you guessed it! Now trying to get clean with the aid of Naltroxene after an arrest for assault, which resulted in some jail time as well as a curfew and constant supervision Pete is reportedly set to marry supermodel Kate Moss.
