Pete Doherty recently spent about a month in rehab for drug addiction. (What IS it with celebs and drugs?!) Since his release, he has been spotted around London looking several pounds heavier.

Some tabloids and blogs are speculating that he has traded his drug addiction for a food addiction… what do you all think? Personally, I don’t think he looks THAT big. As we’ve seen with several celebs like Lindsay and Britney, it’s quite normal to gain some weight after rehab. After all, your body needs to adjust to food.

    people gain weight in rehab hopefully he’ll make some music and stay clean and semi-healthy

    Celebs = Drugs because there is so much MONEY involved…I mean LOTS AND LOTS of money. People with LOTS of money have access to ANYthing.

  3. jackie | 17/10/07

    i think the reason he looks big is just because he was so tiny before.

    but objectively i don’t think he’s that big…

  4. Jodi | 17/10/07

    What the hell? Does he have that same outfit in two different sizes? If he gets even larger, is his closet already equipped to handle it?

  5. Chrissy | 17/10/07

    He is so fugly! 100 pounds or 300 He makes me puke.

  6. sophie | 17/10/07

    nooooo way is this true, its blatently a pic thats been photo shopped, dnt fall 4 it

  7. Lisa | 17/10/07

    Looks much healthier, but did he get his teeth cleaned yet?

  8. MelodySoul | 17/10/07

    He put on at least 20 lbs.

  9. breads | 17/10/07

    who cares its pete doherty???
    the guy is a waste of oxygen

  10. gb | 17/10/07

    I bet you anything he’s on methadone maintenence. Methadone blows you up big time. I doubt he’s truly sober.

  11. ally | 17/10/07

    sophie its NOT photoshopped..

  12. Ultra-skinny girl | 17/10/07

    He’s a fat,jolly man..

  13. gb | 17/10/07

    as far as why celebrities use drugs… most celebs are narcissitic… as in the DSM4 diagnosis of Personality disorder. Most people with these types of disorders use substances because their brains aren’t wired right to begin with.

  14. Solina | 17/10/07

    He doesn’t seem that big! Im sure if he lost the stomach he would look the same as before!

  15. Tucker | 17/10/07

    Jodi when I first started coming to this website I didn’t want to like you, because I thought you could be a little harsh, but all of these months later there is just no denying that you’re just funny! Very amusing.

  16. lambman | 17/10/07

    he is bloated looking, but that is because he is coming off coke. I’m sure his normal weight is somewhere between the two.

  17. cossey | 17/10/07

    Who in the flippin’ heck is this guy….and who cares?

  18. Emmilea | 17/10/07

    well, I think he looks great either way. I like him heavyer better because hes healther looking.

    I would rather have a chubby doherty, then a cracked out Doherty anyday.

  19. MisStatement | 17/10/07

    He was on heroin and when you are coming off of heroin your body craves sugar so ofcourse he would gain weight…but I think he is an idiot and an arrogant jerk.

  20. Muffy | 17/10/07

    Dayaaaaaaam! Are we sure we have the right guy? Holy COW!!!

  21. beks | 17/10/07

    he was always gross.

  22. Ultra-skinny girl | 17/10/07

    I don’t mind a belly on a guy.Guys should not be TOO skinny..it makes them look weak.The ‘too skinny’ look only works on some women.

  23. Fiona | 17/10/07

    He looks like a mime!

  24. SALSA! | 18/10/07

    kate moss is so much better than him! I can’t believe the model she chose to represent her line at Topshop betrayed her like that. I would never disrespect Kate. Anyway who cares about his weight gain I kept expecting to log onto one of these gossip websites and read that he was dead. I have recovered from drug addiction too. I gained some weight which I have lost I’m a small person, but looking back I was lucky to escape with my life and I can’t believe I ever did the things I did. So I hope he stays clean and on the right path. By the way why do websites and tabs lash out at celebs for being too fat then too skinny then when they clean up and take care of themselves its lash out about weight gain? WTF?

  25. ; ) | 18/10/07

    he looks sooo gross fat!
    he looked better before

  26. jed | 18/10/07

    If Kate Moss really loved him—she would pork up, too.

  27. purpleplague | 18/10/07

    I think this is a good sign. It may mean he actually managed to stop his drug and alcohol usage. He’s been in rehab before, I believe, but never gained any noticeable amount of weight from it..

  28. schuk | 18/10/07

    Hm, he looks cute now, but I wonder if Kate would date him now…

  29. Jodi | 18/10/07

    Tucker, I am pleased you have reassessed.

  30. Linda | 18/10/07

    This is really nothing to even make a post about if u ask me. He’s eating and has extende his approximate lifetime with about 40 years. Good for him!

  31. angela | 18/10/07

    this guy is so gross to me. it always looks as though he hasn’t showered or brushed his teeth in weeks… and his clothes always look a mess.

    and how hard is it to find a hat that fits his head??

    anyhow… glad he’s sobering up… i hope the weight gain is a good sign.

  32. Charli | 18/10/07

    I cant believe its hims :| He looked much cuter slimmer.

  33. jess | 18/10/07

    I’m REALLY glad for him. And I don’t care whether or not he has gained weight. He is clean now, and looks a lot happier. That’s what’s important.

  34. s | 18/10/07

    HE IS UGLY NO MATTER WHAT. Props to him for getting help - doubt it will last.

  35. Edan | 18/10/07

    Well, I, for one am pretty attracted to the old him. Because I like my men thin. And cracked out. And addicted to sex with washed up supermodels.
    *Joygasm*

  36. ValerieSara | 18/10/07

    As long as he’s not standing next to Kate Moss, he doesn’t look overwieght to me.

  37. georgie | 18/10/07

    whatever. he looks fugly at any weight.

  38. healthyisbeautiful | 18/10/07

    Ugh I just want to give him a shower!!! Just throw him in a shower and leave him for a little while, then give him a haircut and a bed to sleep in and leave him there for a couple of weeks while he recouperates. Sheesh!

    He has gained weight, and it’s probably for the better. He was looking really thin.

  39. lux | 18/10/07

    I can’t believe how big he got. Guess its cause he’s eating more regularly now that he isn’t using. Still, its nuts.

  40. FW | 18/10/07

    he was too skinny before and he’s a little pudgy in the belly after - if he loses about 10 pounds it’ll be a good weight to settle at - i suspect that if he stays clean he’ll learn to adjust to eating like a normal person and he’ll drop some pounds

  41. Slugs | 18/10/07

    Gross before. Even more so now. I wish him success in straightening out his addictions.

  42. SupermodelSuzie | 18/10/07

    Drugs make you skinny. If he didn’t gain wait, I’d suspect that Rehab did absolutely nothing for him.

  43. lola | 18/10/07

    He’s kind of attractive when he’s thin. Also, to gb, methadone maintenance is the most effective way to kick a heroin addiction. I’m in psych, and I’m starting my Masters in drug rehabilitation. Most addicts who try to kick the habit cold turkey fail, so if that’s what he needs, then so be it.

  44. Karma | 18/10/07

    I could care less if he gets fat or not. He’s ugly, disgusting and what the hell is he even famous for? Thank heavens Kate Moss got rid of this loser.

  45. susan smith | 18/10/07

    people start to eat when they are not doing drugs. that is always what happens. when they are doing drugs they choose sugary foods once a day and nothing any other time. same cycle, different druggie…

  46. SKBITCH | 18/10/07

    can u imagine the awful things people would be saying/showing if this were kate moss’s before and after results?

  47. Jasmine | 18/10/07

    omg he sould totally lose the weight !

  48. kate | 18/10/07

    i never liked him until i saw him do an interview for some show that aired in britain.

    i think people find him attractive because he’s soft-spoken, intelligent and sensitive.

  49. Zana | 18/10/07

    Yeah, he is a genuinely nice guy and very talented as well.

    He just went down the wrong route.

    I’m SO glad he’s kicking all these addictions. He does look better thin…. but he’s off drugs so that’s all that matters.

    BRING BACK THE LIBERTINES!!!!!!

    Didn’t they break up BECAUSE of his addictions?
    Like, didn’t Carl say choose between the band or the drugs? IDK. And Babyshambles & Dirty pretty things haven’t been that great…

    Anyway..

    Leave off him. He’s a good bloke. And the Libertines are awesome.

  50. Izzy | 18/10/07

    he may have been slim before but he was SICK before

  51. cellulite eXpert | 18/10/07

    i like him pudgy. kate wanted him “rexy” ( anoroexic sexy.) which to me means skinny but not starving.

  52. Spectra | 18/10/07

    He looks better than he did when he was superskinny. At least he’s off drugs now though…that’s more important than being thin. I think if you’re f-ed up on drugs, you should first get sober/clean and THEN focus on getting to a good healthy weight. It’s just way too hard to do both at once.

  53. marilyn | 18/10/07

    omg who cares! he QUIT DRUGS. good for him.

  54. Elaine | 18/10/07

    Fat and sloppy, not attractive at all.

  55. Fiona | 18/10/07

    Drugs speed up the metabolism and when they quit they gain all weight and sometimes they even take many sweets to help with drug cravings.

  56. sabrina | 18/10/07

    He looks so cute in the before picture! and disgustingly gay in the after pic

  57. Meems | 18/10/07

    Hahahaha! He looks exactly like my friend’s brother, Michael, right down to the suit…

  58. lulu | 20/10/07

    he’s looking rather pudgey but still somewhat attractive.
    poor kate. irina is gorgeous though.

  59. Sylvie | 22/10/07

    LMAO Jodi! I thought the same thing, when I saw his outfit. I had to do a double take! I think he looks good here. Definitely an improvement! Are him and Kate still together? They were a cute couple!

  60. Miss M | 22/10/07

    Good luck to him, he is a very talented musician and I can’t wait for him to pen down new songs!

  61. Peyton | 23/10/07

    DUH drugs ruin your appetite. look at mathew perry and how thin he was while on drugs. kate moss skinny on cocaine. good for him for going to rehab!

  62. Mary | 31/10/07

    Drugs mess up your system. A person whose body is used to drugs will often gain weight as the body gets used to functioning normally again. Some weight gain is much healthier than hard drugs. And it can always be tempered once a person is detoxed enough and has enough enegery.

    I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well. But it was interesting! Look for some my links:
