While Pete Doherty is pretty much run out of England, France is gladly taking him in. The Guardian is reporting that the Libertines/Babyshambles frontman is currently living there and having a celebrity status due to his art not his tumultuous relationships and avid drug usage. They are comparing his general “bad-assery” to Serge Gainsbourg, he is currently filming a movie with Charlotte Gainsbourg about the life of 19th century poet Alfred de Musset. My favorite line of the article is Doherty saying: “I don’t know if I’m a good actor, but they say I am.” Read the rest of the Guardian article here.Whatever happens I hope he goes back to making music.
