Grieving Doherty Gets Bagel Shower At Russian Concert

6:30 p.m. · February 2, 2010 · by Mike Burr

Libertines front man Pete Doherty was pelted with bagels at a show in Russia last night after hitting the stage ninety minutes late. Apparently not wanting to waste tomatoes or drinks a good portion of the crowd left; those remaining greeted Doherty with the cascade of baked goods. Though the singer said that he overslept, a more telling sign of what was on his mind was his response to a Russian journalist who asked him about the recent death of friend Robin Whitehead. Doherty cursed, threw vodka in her face, and left the venue. London police do not believe there was any foul play in the heiress's death, but still want to interview Doherty. [Metro]
