Pete Doherty bans beer, turns to meditation

Pete DohertyBabyshambles rocker Pete Doherty has turned to meditation & also banned members of his band from drinking beer – in his latest attempt at staying clean.

According to London’s Metro newspaper, Pete’s strict new regime comes just weeks after he was filmed injecting himself with drugs, only days after boasting a bill of clean health following a stint in rehab.

Members of the Babyshambles claim they initially thought Doherty was having joking – but bassist Drew McConnell said Pete’s beer ban is very much a reality, saying: ‘He’s insisted on it [the alcohol ban].”

“I thought it was a joke at first but it’s true – we’re having to hide bottles of beer under our pillows! I think it’s indicative of Peter’s resolve to sort himself out.”

According to drummer Adam Ficek, a ban on booze is not the only regime Pete is undertaking to get through the tour

“You won’t believe this…but he’s actually meditating next door right now. I’ve got him into it – I do a lot of Thai Chi and Chi Gong. Stranger things have happened in the land of Babyshambles”, Ficek said.
