Drug stunt costs Pete Doherty dearly

LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - Kate Moss kicked and punched ex-lover Pete Doherty after he injected heroin in front of a film crew.

The supermodel allegedly lost her temper and attacked the drug-addled rocker as the pair talked in the street outside her London home.

She was furious after hearing the troubled singer had injected drugs backstage after a gig in Berlin - then squirted a syringe full of his blood over cameramen filming his Babyshambles bandmates.

Doherty told a Swiss newspaper: "She was furious. She hit me until I was black and blue. She whacked me with her fists and feet.

"I'm OK but she injured my finger."

Meanwhile, Doherty has been axed by his record label, Rough Trade, following the stunt.

An industry insider told Britain's Sunday Mirror newspaper: "That was the last straw for Rough Trade. They couldn't put up with that sort of behaviour any longer.

"There's only so much they could take... and Pete's gone way beyond that. Rough Trade backed Pete as much as they could."

A Babyshambles spokesman has confirmed the band are not on the label anymore.
