Kate Moss
- Profession: Model
- Place/Date of Birth: Croydon, London, England, 16 January 2021
- Assiociated with: Pete Doherty, Sadie Frost
The 31-year-old beauty lost several lucrative contracts after images of her using drugs were published - but has remained a fashion icon for fans. Grazia editor Jane Bruton said: "Whatever trouble she’s had in her private life, Kate Moss remains the style icon of our times, with an incredible 34 per cent of the vote." Stunning Kate beat fashion icons like Sienna Miller and Scarlett Johansson to be named Best Dressed.
Last month, the catwalk queen, who has a three-year-old daughter, Lila clinched a ?1.2million modelling contract with mobile phone giant Virgin - her first since her cocaine scandal. She will begin shooting the adverts in Los Angeles this month. A source revealed: "She’s sorted herself out and she has a new approach to life."
Kate has begged Pete to leave her alone - Dec 2, 2020
Kate Moss has reportedly begged on/off lover Pete Doherty to leave her alone - and says he makes her "sick". The supermodel has severed all ties with the wild Babyshambles rocker - and is furious he is allegedly set to reveal all in a kiss and tell newspaper deal. The singer is also thought to be considering co-operating on a book about their troubled romance.
Kate - who recently left the US rehab centre where she was being treated following her cocaine scandal - is quoted in the Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: "He’s a user in every sense of the word. He makes me sick." She added: "Yes, I loved him, but I was taken in by his little boy lost routine. He has nearly cost me everything. "Now he’s out to exploit our time together. It’s clear he doesn’t care about me and has no respect for our relationship."
The 31-year-old beauty ditched Pete on Wednesday (30.11.05) after learning he had been arrested on suspicion of possession of crack cocaine.
Kate has dumped on-off boyfriend Pete - Nov 30, 2020
Kate Moss has dumped on-off boyfriend Pete Doherty - because he walked out of drug rehab after only a week. The shamed supermodel - who was filmed snorting cocaine earlier this year - persuaded Babyshambles rocker Pete to undergo the same intense detox and therapy sessions she went through. The mother-of-one wanted Pete to kick his drug habit so the pair of them could spend Christmas with her daughter, three-year-old Lila Grace. Pete agreed to check into the Arizona clinic that helped Kate get clean but he soon got bored and jetted home.
The 26-year-old was back in London on Monday night (28.11.05) and was spotted drinking with pals at a rock concert. A friend of the supermodel is quoted in The Sun newspaper as saying: "Kate is absolutely fuming. She’d hoped they could spend Christmas together. "As long as Pete is a user she will refuse to see him."

After a series of shoots for teenage magazines, it was Harper’s Bazaar that finally launched her into the international arena. In 1992, she became the Face of Calvin Klein. Moss originally spearheaded the controversial "waif" look which critics claimed encouraged anorexia in impressionable teenagers. The girl from Croydon, who once said she "might’ve been a bank manager" now divides her time between London and LA, where she is often seen at The Viper Rooms, the controversial club owned by her one-time actor boyfriend Johnny Depp.
She has appeared in several notable documentaries about the fashion world and in 1995, released a hard-back book of pictures entitled simply "Kate". Having checked into London’s £300-a-day Priory Clinic in November 1998 suffering from exhaustion, Kate emerged refreshed the following January to announce that she had spent the last decade modelling "drunk". She told The Face magazine, "That’s what you do. You always have champagne before the shows. Always. Even at ten in the morning. It got to the point one time when we were [saying], ’We’re not going out without any champagne’."
Losing the Calvin Klein contract to fellow Brit Lisa Ratliffe in 1999, Kate has now taken on the status of fashion icon. In the May 2000 issue of Vogue, she played muse to a variety of the most cutting edge artists and photographers. In London she is still represented by Storm. Written in 2000
