Fans Of Pete Doherty Set Up ‘Welfare Fund’
You know your life is in the gutter when your fans setting up a ‘Welfare Fund’ for you.
Jailed rocker Pete Doherty is so far in the deep end that I don’t even think there is any coming back.
I guess there is one person that thinks there is still hope. Online retailer Stefano Passantino, who operates the website Lastseason.com, has set-up the “Pete Doherty Welfare Fund” to help the troubled musician get his life back together when he leaves prison.
Stefano said: “I’m a huge fan who wants to see this gifted bloke given every chance to get back on his feet.
“I want to see Pete performing and writing new material for years to come.
“I’ll do what I can to help Pete leave the bad stuff behind him. I’ll give him a job, feed him, clothe him - but I won’t wash him, that’s asking too much.”
It’s either a great publicity stunt for his website, or he truly cares about this druggie.
Either way, I hope Doherty gets the point and figures his life out when he is released from prison.
