Doherty blames Geldof's daughter for Live8 performance

Okay then.



6/7/05 Doherty blames Live 8 flop on Geldof's daughter, 16, "making a pass" at him


Troubled rocker Pete Doherty has blamed Live 8 co-organiser Sir Bob Geldof's daughter for his disastrous duet with Sir Elton John at the historic concert, insisting she made a pass at him seconds before he went on stage.

The Babyshambles frontman could barely stand up when he joined John onstage to sing T-Rex hit Children Of The Revolution.

But he has slammed accusations his poor performance was caused by drugs, insisting Geldof's 16-year-old daughter, Peaches put him off, by fondling him and whispering obscenities in his ear.

He says, "I wasn't lost for words and I wasn't out of it on drugs. Just before I went on stage, Peaches squeezed my bum hard and whispered something rather suggestive to me. It left me in such shock, I didn't know where I was.

"Bob Geldof has organised this amazing global event, I was facing 210,000 people, the cameras are rolling, and f**king Elton John is duetting with me. And Bob's daughter has secretly made a pass at me.

"It's all I can think about. It did my head in. I didn't think Bob would be very happy."

[Dutch Partygirl]

He's so full of sh*t, it's unbelievable... But it is good for a laugh!

 

[jacobus]

doherty is an useless piece of shit...drughead. people like him make me sick. this man is a disgrace. they should buy him a ticket for the island of the LOST castaways...that should help him overcome his addictions.
i am so angry 'cause this bastard ruined one of T.Rex greatest songs.

 

[Nube Gris]

yes he ruined, what a bastard

 

[karls77]

What a fuckin wanker. I saw him on the tele performing at the Isle of Wight festival and he was just as rubbish. Wonder who made a "pass" at him then??

 

[Aardvark747]

What a waster that guy is. And why our press over here is obsessed with him, ill never understand.

 

[u2popmofo]

Who the hell is Pete Doherty?

 

[beegee]

isn't he married to the sweet, sweet kate moss?

 

[thesuburbskill]

What a waster

heh punny

bonosgirl84: another useless drugstar with cocaine brain

oh

ok

sorry

i didn't realize you knew her personally

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

If I were Bob Geldoff this kid would be running for his life...

 

[2Hearts]

These sorts of rumors can get started when you name your daughter Peaches.

 

[typhoon]

Seriously, Peaches?!

 

[beau2ifulday]

She's annoying, actually.
She had a TV show here about teenagers in Britain, which basically amounted to her oh-so-lovely conclusion of:

'every teenager is having sex and doing drugs and smoking and getting drunk and is not political enough like me'

Bad phrasing included.

But that aside, she has said a bunch of time that she like Doherty, so this wouldn't surprise me if it were true

 

[u2popmofo]

Let me rephrase my question, because I'm not sure if people thought I was serious or not. Who is this guy? Is he in a band in the UK or something? Solo artist? Who is he??!!!

 

[beau2ifulday]

He was in a band called The Libertines for a while. He got kicked out once after robbing the flat of his bandmate and got thrown in jail. They made up after he was released, and the band returned to it's original line-up.
He's since been kicked out again because of his drug addiction and general unreliability and formed his own band called Babyshambles. His fame has rocketed recently, which is a shame for people like me who really don't give a shit.
He's shagging Kate Moss. Has been for a while, and just seems to get more drugged up by the day.
He was also in court again not so long ago on an assault charge.

 

[beau2ifulday]

oh, and this is Peaches, for anyone who's interested:

 

[Nube Gris]

fuckin' drug addict

[typhoon]

I didn't know assault charges turned girls on?

(Edit: Peaches is cute.)

 

[Aardvark747]

oh, and this is Peaches, for anyone who's interested:

She looks about 5 years old?!

 

[beegee]

I didn't know assault charges turned girls on?

is that in reference to the smilie i posted?

if so...i didn't realize that was the "i'm aroused smilie"

:aroused:

i think kate and he are fabulous, but that's just me. i like a good rockstar with my mini-wheats. to quote my favorite way of looking at the world, "it's like sid and nancy - if nancy was good looking and sid had talent."

i haven't asked anyone to agree with me, 'ave i?

 

[Numb1075]

this guy looks a little like Billy Jo Armstrong from Green Day who just went on a 20 day crack binge.

 

[dead nancy]

jeSUS, people!

any of you bongo-lovers actually see the live8 clip? or listen to the libertines or baby shambles? or is it just that he's a druggy?

hell yeah, the beatles fucking SUCK, man. they did DRUGS! omfg! wait! oh noes!!1!! bongo did a live8 song with paul! wtf do we do now?!?

as for live8, i almost fell down myself when i watched pete & elton because elton john looked like a super-scary JABBA THE HUT with bad glasses!

seriously, tho: if you haven't heard the libertines, go get the libertines NOW. they've got it at the itunes music store. it's excellent. and druggy or not, pete doherty was the soul of that band.

and baby shambles's single killamangiro is also available at the itms. 99 cents to actually know what this artist SOUNDS LIKE, if that interests you as much as who he's fucking...

xox,
dead nancy

i think he's adorable

 

[Palace_Hero]

You have Fiona Apple in your avatar. Your perception on the human form is bang out of shape.

 

[KennyM]

You'd think Pete Doherty wouldn't be too put off by a squeeze from Peaches just before he 'was facing 210,000 people, the cameras are rolling, and f**king Elton John'.
