Pete Doherty turned up in Paris recently - but more importantly, he showed up cleaner and soberer than we've seen him in years! The troubled troubadour was in town with new girlfriend Irina Lazareanu (who we spotted hand-in-hand with Doherty the next day) to promote Shotter's Nation, his most recent album with Babyshambles. No word on whether Pete's Parisian venues agreed to the same drink-and-drug-free guidelines as the ones on his recent UK tour (a provision he insisted upon to aid himself in gradually weaning himself off drugs and drink) - but from the way the troubled rocker mingled with his fans, it looks to us like he's been keeping his nose clean!
We'd rather see Pete with a brew than with a crackpipe (or a cat!)

Making time for the fans
You gotta give it to Pete - not only are those "sober shows" may be the most ingenious promotional move since Britney's the M+ M's House of Blues tour!
