Pete Doherty: Nobody Cares

This link has tickled me:

Hopefully Pete will take heed of the poor sales and realise that nobody cares. It's about time that 'celebs' (I use the term very loosely) with the kind of drug and alcohol issues that he (and a few others) have, are kicked out of their recording/acting/whatever contract they had.

I, for one, do not want the children of today growing up to think it is funny, smart or acceptable.

It's time to realise that the so-called 'role model' argument is utterly spurious.

The notion of a 'role model' is dreamed up by Middle-Englanders who read the Mail and tut about bad examples to 'our' children.

People who buy PD's records - and let's be honest, there are not that many of them - do so because they like his music, not because they think it's cool to take drugs.

People who take drugs because pop stars do are very few and far between.

People who think people take drugs because pop stars do are too old and reactionary to remember what being a fan is like.

He has had some success with his activities - I would never have heard of him otherwise.

I had never heard of him until he started dating Kate Moss, that is the truth. I am less than impressed that each time I hear about him it's because of his addictions.

Just �17.10 eh!!!!

He would have been better off if he had remained in prison.

So would we . . .

He is with his label because of his musical ABILITIES and TALENTS.
They shouldn't drop him because of what he gets up to in his personal life.
Michael Jackson was vilified over allegations, and whatever you believe concerning the case, he still made great music.
I think the media should just p*ss off and write about things that are actually newsworthy and relevant then invading the privacy of certain talented people
