Well, Lily's dad told her she must. Pete's girl says he mustn't. No, we're not talking about hardcore drugs, we merely speak of those upcoming Brit Awards. According to reports, long-suffering (does she deserve my pity? - not sure about that) supermodel Kate Moss has barred boyfriend Pete Doherty from attending the Brits because Lily Allen's going to be there, and she's alleged to be jealous of the Babyshambler's new friendship with the young singer.
The Mirror claims that Doherty and Allen have grown close recently, and that Moss recently found a gift from Lily to Pete at his home, and was a bit cross. Well, possibly a bit more than 'a bit cross'. Here's what the 'source' says: "Kate went ballistic and kept shouting about why he had kept the thing from Lily after all these months. Pete insisted that she was being paranoid, they were just mates. But Kate was having none of it and said that there was no way that Pete was going to the Brits if Lily was going - especially as she wasn't going herself. Pete was gutted as he was looking forward to it."
One's got to wonder if Doherty is really obedient enough to follow Kate's orders. After all, he's not obedient enough to do as he's told by his mum, bandmates, label, judges, the law, etc. Anyway, as I'm sure you do not need to be told, the Brits happen next Wednesday at Earl's Court.
