More about: Babyshambles

Pete Doherty is planning to appear on the BBC’s The Weakest Link in a bid to prove his intelligence to former girlfriend and supermodel Kate Moss, according to reports.

The Babyshambles singer who, before his well published drug addiction was an acclaimed teenage poet, hopes to become the strongest link on the Anne Robinson fronted TV show.

"People might not realise it but I am well educated and well read,” explained Doherty. “I can prove to people there is more to me than just drugs."

A well informed ‘source’ told the Daily Express newspaper: "Kate has this romantic notion of love and finds intelligence a huge turn-on. Pete thinks going on the show will prove to her that he does have the depth and IQ that she loves so much."

All details about Doherty’s appearance – should it happen - will be here on Gigwise first.
