Moss Cut from Album
Cover
Kate Moss' scantily clad pictures have been dropped from the cover of Babyshambles' new album, 'Shotter's Nation'.
The supermodel's ex Pete Doherty had earlier decided that the cover would include a
picture of Kate in 'Agent Provocateur' lingerie.
But that was before the couple split in July, and record bosses decided to use a stand-in's
pictures instead of Moss.
After Doherty went into rehab in August this year for his cocaine addiction, record chiefs were left with a dilemma, whether to keep Kate or dump her.
"The pictures of Kate were amazing. But no one knew who owned the copyright to them. After their nasty split they didn't want to risk Kate or Agent Provocateur trying to sue them for using her image on the cover," the a source was quoted as saying.
The chiefs had to decide amongst themselves, as Pete wasn't allowed to leave his program at the rehab clinic. And with the album's release date fast approaching, they decided to be on a safer side and use different
pictures.

Warning
Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties and local pubs to
be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from any woman.
Many females use a date rape drug on the market called "Beer" to target
unsuspecting men. The drug is generally found in liquid form and is now available almost anywhere. It comes in bottles, in cans, from taps, and
in large "kegs."
Beer is used by female sexual predators at parties and bars to persuade their male victims to go home and have sex with them. Typically, a woman
needs only to persuade a guy to consume a few units of Beer and then
simply ask him home for no-strings-attached sex. Men are rendered
helpless against this approach.
After drinking Beer, men often awaken with only hazy memories of exactly
what happened to them the night before, often with just a vague feeling
that "something bad" occurred. At other times these unfortunate men are
swindled out of their life savings, in a familiar scam known as "A Relationship."
It has been reported that in extreme cases, the female may even be
shrewd enough to entrap the unsuspecting male into a longer-term form of
servitude and punishment referred to as "Marriage." Apparently, men are
much more susceptible to this scam after Beer is administered and sex is offered by the predatory females.
If you fall victim to this insidious Beer and the predatory women administering it, there are male support groups with venues in every
town where you can discuss the details of your shocking encounter in an open
and frank manner with similarly affected, like-minded guys.
For the support group nearest you, just look up "Golf Courses" in the yellow pages.

Thief
Stole $15,000 in
Victoria's Secret Bras
There's a bra bandit on the loose in northern Arizona.
Police in Flagstaff are looking for someone who stole about $15,000 worth of the under garments from a Victoria's Secret store last Saturday.
Police say the thief or thieves were able to steal about 350 bras without tipping off employees and walked off out of the store's main entrance with the merchandise during business hours.
Authorities aren't sure why the anti-theft tags in the merchandise didn't activate the alarm and they say there isn't any surveillance footage of the crime.
Investigators say they believe the thieves may be trying to sell the bras and that they'll be monitoring Internet auction sites to see if anything appears to be connected to the theft.

Anorexic Ad
An Italian fashion label has stirred debate by featuring a naked, anorexic model on billboards across the country in an effort to raise awareness of the illness.
French actress Isabelle Caro, 27, who has suffered anorexia for 15 years and weighs just 31 kilograms (less than 69lbs) appears in the adverts next to the slogan "No Anorexia."
The campaign, for fashion label Nolita, Flash&Partners is intended to show the reality of anorexia -- an illness the company says that "in most cases is caused by the stereotypes imposed on women by the fashion world."
It is set to coincide with Milan Fashion Week, which, along with Madrid, has banned skinny models from its catwalks.
The campaign, by photographer Oliviero Toscani, has been met with mixed response.
While some have praised the adverts for bringing the issue of anorexia out into the open, others believe it could act as a trigger in some people already suffering from the disease.
Luisa Bertoncello, managing director of Flash&Partners said she was "shocked by the explicitness and blatant truth" the photo conveys."
"Today though, the intention of many companies is to use advertising as an instrument to promote social awareness of social evils," she said.
Toscani, who is known for producing confrontational images, said: "I've been looking into the problem of anorexia for years. Who's responsible? Communication in general? Television? Fashion?
"So it's very interesting that in the end a fashion company has understood the importance of the problem, and with full awareness has found the courage to take the risk that this campaign involves."
Italian minister for health, Livia Turco has also backed the campaign.
"An initiative like this can effectively open an original and privileged communications channel with young people with a message of great impact that can promote responsibility towards the problem of anorexia," she said.
But Fabiola De Clercq, head of the Italian Association for the Study of Anorexia was reported as saying that the image could encourage young women to copy Caro and "compete for extreme thinness".
The organizers of Milan Fashion Week have also stated that the campaign followed their own against anorexia.

Stewart Upset Over
Daughters Modeling Job
Rod Stewart has reportedly banned his daughter from becoming an underwear model.
The singer was furious when he discovered 20-year-old Ruby had been asked to become the new face of lingerie chain Ultimo and ordered her to drop out.
However, Ruby had already completed one of a proposed four shoots and the photos have been released, despite her contract now being terminated.
Rod had a fall out with Ultimo boss Michelle Mone in 2004.
He was livid when Mone replaced his then-girlfriend Penny Lancaster, who at the time was the face of Ultimo, with his ex-wife Rachel Hunter.
Rod had branded Mone "a manipulative cow," after she compared Rachel to Brazilian soccer ace Ronaldo and Penny to a player from Scottish team Falkirk.
Sources close to Mone claim she believes Rod forbid Ruby from modeling for her because of their past history.
One said, "Apparently he decided he was going to make Ruby concentrate on her musical career, but Michelle is in no doubt it's because of her involvement with Ultimo."
Rod's eldest daughter, Kimberly, has also modeled for Ultimo - much to his annoyance.
