Pete Doherty In Cash Flow Crisis?

added 11 July 2008 at 13.02

Is Pete Doherty heading for bankruptcy? According to a report from Companies House, French Dog Blues - the company owned by Doherty - has only managed to make £3,500 in the last year., Babyshambles Ltd also managed to lose £8,000, while Pete himself reportedly owes his driver £4,000.

 

It’s not all gloom, though – Babyshambles are owed £24k from recent touring, although the band’s recent no-show at the Werchter festival in Belgium meant they lost out on a £60k fee, according to ITN. The reason for the cancellation? One of Doherty’s cats went into labour...

 

What could Pete Doherty do to earn bit more cash for himself? Tell us what you think by leaving a comment here.

2. He's just been fined a further £1000 for smashing someone's camera on a DAY OUT from Rehab!
   
   Rent-boy Doherty, stick to what you're good at. Hand jobs & staying out of the public eye.

3. This man is not a genius - his material sucks more than bad nursery rhyhmes - he's just a drugged up loser who happened to be in the "right" place at the "right" time.
   
   Stick to selling your bottom Pete, cause God knows your face won't get you any trade.
   
   And for you idiots who buy into this trash - shame on you, grow some taste.

5. John what a shocking thing to say..... God forbid any of your family was to become ill or worse you will regret wishing death on another, 'you silly little boy'..... Plus if you were to read the books rather than the tabloids ,you would soon realise that the early days was just about survival.

8. Pete should go back to being a rent boy, catch aids and die. That would do everyone a favour. Maybe he could take Amy Slimehouse with him.

9. he could not let the media get hold of his financial information as it has nothing to do with them, and he will never be declared bankrupt
