Junky singer Pete Doherty is again in the news for bad reasons. This time he is facing the critics’ wrath after he was caught on camera spitting beer at a U.K. TV news reporter following THE LIBERTINES’ reunion gig. Is anyone surprised?!
According to Contactmusic,
The cult band, fronted by Doherty and Carl Barat, took part in a press conference at North London pub The Boogaloo on Wednesday (31Mar10), where the group performed an impromptu eight-song set. They took time out to chat to Channel Five showbiz reporter Minnie Stephenson, during which Barat mentioned how bandmate Gary Powell had accidentally spat beer on her. As Stephenson returned to speak directly into camera, Doherty could be seen in the background approaching the journalist and spitting beer at the back of her head.
Well, I think Pete is a smart guy. No, he IS actually a smart guy. Now that he’s been reduced to a walking bag of drugs minus any music, indulging in such nuisance acts is the only life-support for his dying celebrity status. Hold it up as long as you can, Pete!
