Pete Doherty - Class A Muppet

I mentioned a few months ago the death of an acquaintance at a party attended by one Pete Doherty. The ex-Libertines singer has been cleared of any involvement in the death of Mark Blanco though he hardly covered himself in glory by leaving the scene of the fatality to continue partying in a hotel. Now he has confirmed to the world what a pathetic prick he is by posting a video diary on the web boasting about how Paul Roundhill's crackden - where Mark died - can be 'creative' for him 'if drugs and suspicious deaths don't get in the way'. The web and its new social networking receptacles have fostered a rather sad solipsism among many users (the most recent example is Cho Seung-Hu's rant from beyond the grave) but seeing a spoiled junkie rock star elaborating on his 'art' while mocking the death of someone else is perhaps the most distasteful manifestation yet. Stop buying this muppet's records and let's hope he's forced to bring Baby Shambles to Butlin's to finance his smack habit.

As a recent reader of your blog I had no idea, and I hadn't heard anything about this in the media. I can't stand the man anyway, but now I think he's seriously bad news.

Please don't post again about Pete Doherty ...

I have high enough blood pressure as it is without hearing what a washed up, crack riddled prodigy he's supposed to be.
