PETE DOHERTY CALLS DRUG USE RUBBISH

Babyshambles druggie Pete Doherty is lashing out at reports alleging he had continued to use hard drugs while in a London jail, insisting he has a certificate proving his sobriety.The troubled singer was released early from Wormwood Scrubs Prison today, after serving 29 days of a 14-week prison sentence for probation violation. Last month, the British newspaper The Sun published photos of Doherty inside his jail cell and claimed he was still on drugs.But Doherty, who admits the prison stint was difficult, has blasted the tabloid reports of his alleged heroin use as "rubbish". He says, "I managed to stay clean. I got my certificate. I was going to Sellotape it to the wall, but they wouldn’t give me any Sellotape."Did I take heroin inside? Complete rubbish. The prison didn’t release statements, it’s their policy to ignore it rather than acknowledge it (the media reports)."I was in segregation for the last three weeks. They call it the block.Supposedly I was in debt to loads of big time drug dealers. All I’ll say to that is: chance would be a fine thing."

Editors Note: Hey Pete, can you send us your sobriety certificate?
