RePete Performance
Junkie musician Pete Doherty has apologized to his fans and doctors for lying about being drug free and has admitted that he was shooting heroin on Friday, as reported, in that video clip posted yesterday. The video even took his Babyshambles bandmates by surprise. "When you've just come out of rehab and trying to stay clean with all your might," bassist Drew McConnell said to NME, and "some cunt comes round your house with a bag of stuff and a cameraphone, it must be hard to stop yourself." A spokesman for Doherty said, "Peter sadly relapsed last week and is now looking to check himself back into a rehab clinic so that he can try to continue the hitherto excellent attempts he had made to break free of heroin. He realises that he has not only let himself down but has let down those who trusted and encouraged his efforts and he is filled with remorse.” We don't know about those "hitherto excellent attempts," but we believe Doherty when he said the relapse "was a stupid, stupid action for which I feel only shame." And The Sun, in that caring, nurturing way it has, today re-posted the clip of him shooting up.
