In response to the photos of Pete Doherty injecting heroin, EMI records has issued a statement that carries a slight contribution from Doherty himself:
“Peter sadly relapsed last week and is now looking to check himself back into a rehab clinic,” said a spokesman for his record company, EMI.
“He realises that he has not only let himself down but has let down those who trusted and encouraged his efforts.”
“Peter would like to apologise to the medical staff, fans and well-wishers who have helped and encouraged his progress,” the statement reads.
“His ongoing rehabilitation was a source of such pride to him that Peter and those closest to him thought that he was close to winning his personal battle with the drug.
“He is filled with remorse for what he describes today as ‘a stupid, stupid action for which I feel only shame’.”
You know, Pete, we’ve heard this shit before. Less talk, more walk. Or something like that.
