PETE'S CASTLES IN THE AIR

What is more deluded on Pete Doherty's part? His apparent conviction that he's marrying Kate Moss this autumn?

“We are going to marry. It’s going to happen at a Scottish castle somewhere between September and November. A posh Scottish castle. That’s gonna be so cool.”

(As opposed, of course, to those terrible, common Scottish castles, we presume.)

Or is he at his most deluded when he says, well, this:

“The new Lennon — I like that.

“Honestly, I am the most important rock star now.

“And you will hear lots of great songs from me in the near future.”


The most self-important rock star, was that?

Although maybe Pete is the new Lennon - Lennon was in a popular band but, following a very public and acrimonious split, went on to make dreadful, self-indulgent, would-be-spiritual twaddle, constantly finding roles for his partner regardless of the quality of her contribution.

That's a little unfair, though, as Kate Moss is actually quite good.

Talking of Kate Moss - and, let's face it, these days Pete usually is:

“Drugs or sex — they are both great.

“The best is a combination of both of them. I really love sex on substances — nothing beats that.”


Of course, if you take the right combination of substances you could convince yourself that Junky Meers from the Used & Overstock shop in the High Street was Kate Moss.

The trouble is, while Doherty is trying to show how astonishingly cool he is with all this talk of having sex while on drugs, we can't help thinking of that episode of Seinfeld where George smuggles a radio and a sandwich into the bedroom to have all his favourite things at once.

Oohoho...spicy mustard...woohoho, you're hot tonight...

I suppose he has to start sometime...

Pete was probably high when he said this--his music IS great but I doubt Kate Moss will except him.

Jesus wept. Is it just me, or does anyone else think that he's trying too hard? No adult that I know wouldn't dream of saying something like that. Come to think of it, I've met hormone addled 15 year olds who aren't as big a dignityphobe as Doherty.
