Kate Moss Mess Snags Rocker
The Kate Moss drug scandal is no longer a solo act.
Pete Doherty, the baby-faced British rocker who appears to be tracing white lines alongside Moss in infamous photos that have derailed the catwalker's career, was arrested Saturday following a raid by U.K. authorities, the Guardian reported.
According to the paper, Doherty, 26, was held for more than 12 hours after police dogs reportedly sniffed out drugs at Music Hall in Shrewsbury, England, where the frontman's band, Babyshambles, was playing a gig. One woman was briefly detained, and 17 others searched, the paper said.
A spokesman for Doherty confirmed the musician had been in custody, but declined to say whether an arrest had been made, the Associated Press said.
Per the Guardian, the reputedly seized drugs were believed to be of the "class A" variety, a U.K. legal classification that includes heroin, Ecstasy, LSD and cocaine.
It's cocaine that Moss and Doherty allegedly were seen sampling in pictures that found their way into London's Daily Mail last month. The photos were culled from a videotape that's scheduled to air Monday night in the name of hard-hitting journalism on Britain's Sky One. On its Website, the network promises Kate Moss: Fashion Victim? will deliver a serious discussion of the scandal, "examining the implications for Moss when the dust finally settles." Plus, it'll show the video. A lot, presumably.
Since the Daily Mail expose on the "debauched drugs and drink session" broke on Sept. 15, Moss, 31, has lost million-dollar contracts with the likes of Chanel and Burberry, accepted "full responsibility for [her] actions" (while not expressly stating what those actions were), and reportedly checked into an Arizona rehab clinic.
By comparison, the lesser-known Doherty had gotten off easy--or at least he had until the weekend. In the wake of Saturday's reported arrest, a scheduled Sunday night Babyshambles concert was canceled.
Doherty didn't sound fazed by the raid. According to the Guardian, upon making bail, Doherty told reporters he was innocent, declared the matter a "pain in the arse," and headed across the street to a pub.
It would not be surprising if the Moss mess drove one to seek out a barstool. The U.K. Sunday Herald said no less than Scotland Yard has searched the recording studio where Moss and Doherty allegedly ingested, and intimated that Doherty and Clash guitarist Mick Jones could be questioned. (Jones reportedly was at the studio the same night as Moss and Doherty.)
Moss is said to be "absolutely devastated" by the imbroglio. Judging by his comments Sunday, Doherty, alternately identified in press reports as Moss' boyfriend and her on-again, off-again squeeze, isn't. Perhaps that's because Doherty is no stranger to drug scandal. Last year, he proved too uninhibited for a band called the Libertines. This year, his new band was disinvited from opening for Oasis after Doherty missed a show.
"I know where the self destruct button is," Doherty told the BBC in 2004. "I just have to resist the temptation to push it."
