not-a-medical-Dr Jessica Taylor monetising the Russell Brand and David Walliams news is disgusting. She forced her vulnerable employees to sign an NDA to stop them whistle blowing. She threatened survivors of sexual abuse to sue them for “every single one of their assets” if they spoke up. She is one of the most dangerous people in the VAWG sector and does so much harm to women and girls.

Sorry, I didn't notice you posted this as I did as well. Do'h.
Yeah, having ONE million technically makes you a millionaire but then go and buy a bag of crisps and your not one anymore...haha. Though I guess if you stop spending £500 a day on drugs you'd hope your income/ savings would increase...
As far as I can recall he just smelled of cigarettes. Will have to ask my friends from back then - one used to go on about Carl smelling sexy but I never got it so maybe I just don't have a very sensitive nose?!

On Pete: "He smelled of fags and like he hasn't been home in a few days but tbh we probably all did"
On Carl: "Oh man. It was a fresh sweat smell but in a good way. In fact, it was a similar smell that first attracted me to [husband] but don't tell him that"
(Several minutes later) "Ok nevermind I just told [husband] and he suggested that it might be a pheromone thing. So maybe that's why you couldn't smell it?"

Are you joking?! They make numerous lists of top indie bands ever, on a regular basis. Still doing the festival rounds and still have a huge fanbase, mainly because their albums and music are well written and performed. Have you ever seen them live?
I think you’ll find when either Pete or Carl pass away, there’ll be plenty of people who do more than shrug.
Whether people like Pete or not, The Lib’s success as a band speaks for itself!
Thank you, much appreciated!
they also said Katie Price was worth 45 million, and that wasnt right either, so who knows...
The Libertines were a classic example of a band who could have made it really big but ducked it up. As Noel Gallagher said "Drink, drugs, can't be arsed".
They do the festival rounds but that's about it. They can still sell out moderate venues guised as 'getting back to their roots'.
Had a few radio friendly hits and clung onto some sort of relevance due to Pete being photogenic and being in the Camden scene at the time.
The relevance came from Pete’s long-term boning of Kate Moss. Otherwise he’d be no different to someone like Johnny Borrell from Razorlight.
Had he been around in the mid/late 90s he’d have just fitted in with some of the members of Suede, who used to go out and do heroin wearing adult sized nappies.
Oh I think they actually meant SHE OWES £45 MILLION!
Nah those two libertines albums are pretty much perfect, Pete's a wanker but I think what they had musically back then was magic.
Now YOU are on to something here!!! They made and Excel spreadsheet error with the ( ) and came up with a positive when it’s a NEGATIVE
Mystery solved!!
I wasn’t a Libertines fan back in the day (I don’t know what I was doing as I was the right age, think I was going through my metal phase then maybe ) but I’ve always found that “scene” quite interesting.
I found the interview with Louis quite sad. I read a review in a paper that said he came across as charismatic and intelligent but I couldn’t see that at all. He seemed like someone who was in a very bad way, very unsure of himself, nervous and anxious. I don’t doubt that he IS intelligent but I just didn’t see it in this interview.
I would absolutely hate the father of my new baby smoking and drinking like that.
I never thought he was good looking at ALL back in the day but seeing the difference between him then and now is stark. He looks like a completely different person. Can’t believe it’s been 20 years since their heyday, it feels so much more recent.

That’s just bloody disgusting

Oh gosh. Carl was so so so hot when he was young.
To ask why they used to wear nappies or do I not need to know!?
I am also very intrigued (though probs shouldn't be) by the Suede incontinence chat! (Love Suede, not so sure about heroin and nappies though).
Me too, I’m seeing them next year with the Manics , can’t wait!
You’re making me laugh. You make it sound like there will be 24 hour news coverage when they die. Like Whitney Houston or Michael Jackson or George Michael, the country will be mourning and their singles will leap to #1 in the charts. It’s not going to happen. No one will care. Honestly. It’ll be uploaded to BBC News website as the fifth lowest article of the day and only make the BBC News ticker tape.
When Carl dies, literally no one will care. 99.9% of the public wouldn’t even know who he was. Pete’s will make more of a splash, purely cause he dated Kate Moss (and you can bet every article will acknowledge his link to her - because that is how he is remembered, not for any of his musical contributions).
I understand you might like them and think they’re the best thing since The Beatles but please understand very few people share this sentiment. They’re practically nobodies nowadays. Ghosts of a past era.
Ooh I was very tempted by that but was skint at the time so will more than likely try and get some re-sale tickets
I don’t know how true this is but in my teens I had a friend whose sister was a heroin addict & my friend said the reason she smelled so bad was because she used to
herself as a result of the drugs, I’ve not thought about that or years until now
