It's not even music news, but it's part of an ongoing saga, so here goes. High street store H&M has axed Kate Moss from its marketing campaigns following all the bad press she's been receiving in the last couple of weeks, and in particular the picture of her and (ex?, who knows) Pete Doherty doing cocaine.
Despite initially standing by Kate, a spokesman for the fashion retailer told reporters yesterday: "H&M has decided to cancel the advertising campaign with model Kate Moss. H&M distances itself strongly from drugs and for several years has been actively engaged in drug prevention work with the Mentor Foundation. After examining the situation H&M decided that the campaign with Kate Moss is not compatible with H&M's clear rejection of drugs."
Presumably H&M will now look for cool fashion icon who doesn't do drugs to work with instead. Good luck with that.
