Famous drug-taker Pete Doherty has commissioned a marble sculpture of himself to be made by his friend Nick Reynolds, who has nothing better to do with his time.

The sculpture is for his gig in Albert Hall on July 12, which he may or may not bother going to, if he's not in prison.

The statue will be surrounded by strips of newspaper, depicting how many newspapers there are or something. Perhaps the strips of newspaper should be shoved in his big fat mouth? Perhaps they should fill his jangling pockets? Or perhaps they should be boiled down into a liquid and drawn into syringes? Who knows? Who cares?

Apparently Nick Reynolds thinks the media are negative about his smack-jacking, talent-shy, smelly git of a friend.

The NME, on the other hand, still haven't employed a sub-editor, insisting that the 'art' piece will: 

"show Doherty surrounded by strips of newspapers depicting his crucifix by the media."

What?
