Mar 1 2007Pete Doherty feeds weed to penguins

Pete Doherty moved in with Kate Moss after being kicked out of his east London flat where he owed $20,000 in unpaid rent. And because he needs adult supervision at all times, while visiting the Cotswold Wildlife Park in Oxfordshire he fed a penguin his joint. Seriously. He allegedly threw the joint into the penguin pen to show off and one of the penguins immediately swallowed it. A source tells The Sun:
"Everyone knew he was smoking grass. He was joking about getting the penguins stoned. He threw them his joint and it looked like one penguin gulped it down. It seemed very wobbly."
Pete Doherty is out of control. Somebody needs to find this guy a babysitter before he eats the world's last bald eagle because he thought it would be funny. My 2-year-old niece has more self-control than him, and she thinks ice cream is the only necessary food group.

Having worked at a zoo and knowing what some idiots think is funny to feed to animals, this makes me sad. Laugh away moron!
6. julia-sexpot! - March 1, 2007 9:34 AM
i know he is a total f@*k-up....but i think he's sorta cute. he could feed weed to me any day.
7. Binky - March 1, 2007 9:34 AM
I guess he didn't understand fully the plotline of 'Happy Feet' and assumed they needed a bit of a push.
8. Richie Rich - March 1, 2007 9:34 AM
A person I used to admire did that to their adopted CAT to stop it from jumping it over their head at night.
9. brujeriadiosa - March 1, 2007 9:38 AM
I'm hoing he goes by the big cat cages and thnks he can "bond" with the cougars....
Sure hope cougars can't get hepatitis, crabs, etc and I sure hope eating him doesn't o.d them...
(but wouldn't we be eternally grateful?)

Pete's dad should have made his mom swallow. This guy is such a fucktard.
13. Clete - March 1, 2007 9:47 AM
Pete Doherty & Kate Moss - their combined intelligence is below the standard penguin IQ. What a moron!
As to cats now they need to get high; take the edge off from all that deep thinking vs. penguins or dogs who have no deep thoughts.
14. lickmybutt - March 1, 2007 9:51 AM
hahahaha. oye. maybe the lil bastard penquin wanted to get high. ever think of that? i never thought my dog would want to until she started sitting right next to me while i was smoking and sniffing the smoke as i exhaled.
then she always forces me to get her some food and then take her on a walk so she can handle business. crazy ass bitch, fersure.
but she LOVES the weed. im thinking that lil penguin guy does too.
15. Where's Waldo - March 1, 2007 9:52 AM
come on now, you gotta admit that seeing a penguin high would be some funny shit! unless the drugs would like completely fuck up its internal organs and the penguin like dies or explodes or something. then that wouldn't be so funny - well, some people would probably still laugh, but i think most people would find that sad.
16. thee cuteness burger - March 1, 2007 9:53 AM
Pete's song "FUCK FOREVER" should be an inkling into how much he cares about a stoned penguin. He's got a drug habit and a super model girl friend. He gets what he wants because he is doing something right. It's called charisma.
But what i want to know is what happened to kate's kid? I hope that little child lives with the father. Charisma or not, crack is freaky.
17. Sheriff Jen - March 1, 2007 9:54 AM
my dog ate a weed cupcake that my roommate left on the table, and he wasn't high 'til the next morning...and he was VERY stoned. So whoever said the penguin that ate the joint was "wobbly" must've been sittin' there for a while. So in other words, that person is a lying media whore.
18. GooniesNeverSayDie - March 1, 2007 9:58 AM
Um, what was he doing at a zoo in the first place? He has the most random life. One day he is in Thailand shooting heroin and the next day he is visiting the zoo. Tomorrow? Let's look for Pete at Dodger Stadium!
PS Is that how zoos are in the UK? Animals penned in by inpenetrable 2 foot high walls? I wouldnt be shocked if a lion was just allowed to walk around the parking lot.
19. Richie Rich - March 1, 2007 10:03 AM
@13 Dogs!? How dare you....! I've never heard of a "Seeing Eye" cat. Where were the cats at 9-11? Do they bring cats to retirement centers for some loving to the elderly? Nope!

21. iburl - March 1, 2007 10:03 AM
I've got a fun idea! Let's ban everyone and anyone who posts Frist or First! If you are not actually first then you also get human feces mailed to your house! Hurray! So, evidently in England, they do not have laws, jails, or police. I knew the police didn't carry guns, but what the hell do they do? If this ugly, f'ed up British twat, Babyshittles, tried this shit in Texas he'd be beaten down, tazed and thrown in the pokey. Normally I'm against police brutality, but this turd has it coming big time.
22. Smackage - March 1, 2007 10:04 AM
He should not be allowed in any place where children or animals are allowed. He should just live in a club or porn store, where he can leave the rest of the world in peace.

This piece of fecal matter shouldn't even be considered part of the human race. Surprised this low-life didn't put the penguin in a headlock and inject heroin into it. Can't wait till this a-hole O.D.'s and returns to hell where he came from.
26. MrSemprini - March 1, 2007 10:11 AM

Cats are more independent than dogs are. You can leave them alone for longer periods of time without their chewing the furniture or howling for hours. You don't need to take them for walks.
Cats will not go into burning building to rescue people, they will not team up to pull a sled, they will not perform stupid tricks for yummies.

29. Tits_McGhee - March 1, 2007 10:21 AM
LOL. This is the fucking funniest news posted on this website in a long time.
Can you imagine those penguins? Since the joint was owned by Doherty, it was surely laced with PCP or cocaine or something. The penguins prolly freaked the fuck ouuuuut!
30. knowhere - March 1, 2007 10:21 AM
for the THC to be released it has to be burned or cooked. the "raw" weed in the joint wouldn't get a baby mouse high. you could feed a penguin a kilo of joints and all that would change would be it's poo color (maybe).
31. karifarrell - March 1, 2007 10:22 AM
What is the big deal? Back when I used to smoke pot for a living, my penguin was always coming up to me begging for a hit. Then I'd be like "Stop bogarting the ganja". Man penguins have iron lungs!!!!!
32. Clete - March 1, 2007 10:23 AM
Have you seen March of the Penguins, The Pebble and the Penguin or Happy Feet? I think those penguins are high.
33. BarbadoSlim - March 1, 2007 10:23 AM
I would love to throw something at him as well, a couple of ounces of buckshot fired from a shotgun, let's see if he can swallow that.

Nope, gave it to the guy in the tux.

Looking at Pete Doherty is about as fun as looking at ads in the SuperFish sidebars.
38. Jenster - March 1, 2007 10:34 AM
he isn't fit for mankind. If this was anyone else, this might be funny, but because it's
Pete Dougherty, it's just sad.
Seriously, he's a second rate Sid Viscious.
39. NipsyHustle - March 1, 2007 10:36 AM
next time i see this junkie, i plan on feeding him an uppercut. he's such a fucking douche i can't catch charges for it. it's a public fucking service that needs to be done. someone at the scene should have picked him up and piledrived his ass into that brick wall.
40. schack - March 1, 2007 10:47 AM
he obviously knows he's a sham, which is why he likes obliterating his consciousness. i just don't know why he doesn't do it once and for all.
41. lambman - March 1, 2007 10:51 AM
That's just a waste of smoke, eating weed doesn't do any good unless its been heated in some type of fat or oil (like melted into butter) there's no way for the THC to get into your system
42. whitegold - March 1, 2007 10:52 AM
He's in a band, right? Has he ever had a hit single or do anything productive? Other than being a stoner and dating Kate Moss, I've really never heard anything else about this guy. In fact, until about 2 months ago I had never heard of him at all!
43. karifarrell - March 1, 2007 10:55 AM
Why is everybody hating on Pete Doherty? What'd he ever do to any of you? He didn't throw a joint into Your pen, or shoot You up with heroin while you were passed out, or spray blood from a syringe all over You, or punch You while you were in rehab...Jesus give the guy a break!!!
44. Triumph Insult Dog - March 1, 2007 11:03 AM
I don't want to get on a racial rant here, but why is it that white people can walk around with joints and nobody says anything?
If a black entertainer even says "joint", they'll be hogtied and given every drug trafficking charge between now and 1989...

Wow... roll over that "College Girls" ad above... that's far more interesting.
48. Lowlands - March 1, 2007 11:08 AM
This $20.0o0,- looks a lot but it's relatively.Because you pay easily for a flat in the center of London 3K-4K a month.So let's say he didn't pay his rent for the last 6 months?i think it's better for Pete doherty to live and act like a penguin for a month than being himself.
49. Stace - March 1, 2007 11:16 AM
Hate to judge all Brittish moms here....but Pete Dougherty starts whipping drugs or blood filled syringes around, I might ask the little girls to step back. Not call them in closer as seen here.
Where's Madonna when you need her?
50. schack - March 1, 2007 11:21 AM
hate to judge Stace, but british moms, unlike the mad(d) advocates of the WAR ON DRUGS, probably recognize that it's just a fucking joint, and he's just a torpid dumbass. no reason to freak out and pen up the kids.
51. PrettyBaby - March 1, 2007 11:28 AM
"Where's Madonna when you need her?"
Looks like she's busy shooting 'roids into her bony butt, then burning out 10 sets of heavy negatives on the preacher curls.
52. Stace - March 1, 2007 11:28 AM
#50 - You understand this is Pete Dougherty right? I believe he has the ability to give you the AIDs or a heroin OD with only a look from his blood squirting eyes.
53. Lowlands - March 1, 2007 11:29 AM
He probably just wanted to exchange some saliva with the penguins.He's love starved and he needs some help.
54. schack - March 1, 2007 11:31 AM
maybe he wanted to let them peck vomit out of the back of his throat. they like that.
Stace- i forgot about the blood squirting eyes. you're totally right.
55. Libraesque - March 1, 2007 11:36 AM
one things clear, those penguins love dope, they're not crowded around anyone else but him
56. Redrum - March 1, 2007 11:58 AM
That moron should be fed to the lions. Or, if his body is too polluted from all the crap he's injected/smoked/swallowed that it's too toxic to eat, put him in a grinder and spray him over the lawn as fertilizer. Nobody will miss this selfish and self-destructive prick.
And those penguins need some kind of barrier to protect them from dipshits like that.

AND he feeds dope to a penguin in front of a child. this person is amazing. if you look back in history, i don't believe (correct me if I'm wrong) you will find ANYONE with his accomplishments. Next, just to entertain Kate, he will free some mental patients and blindfold them and spin them around next to a busy interstate. Please Fish!! Cover this guy like white on rice!

Last night, London Zoo's chief veterinary officer blasted Pete's antics.
Andrew Routh fumed: "Feeding a penguin cannabis could be fatal. It contains toxins that attack the nervous system and liver."
Penguin killers go straight to hell. Its in the Bible.

Pete Doherty needs his eyes plucked out by mad acid tripping nazi-penguins who suffer from horrible projectile diarrhea.
66. amelie3007 - March 1, 2007 1:57 PM
Pete's cute...but is that grey hair I see? *shudder*
67. Josh_Lavarn - March 1, 2007 2:36 PM
"Pete's cute"???? He looks like a homeless Harry Potter hooked on crack. His face is pasty white like an old person's ass. His body looks like he has multiple scolosis. And he dresses and behaves worse than a hobo. Only a demented slut would find this demon attractive.
68. kamihi - March 1, 2007 2:39 PM
Pete Doherty makes me embarrassed to be English, he deserves to be savaged by some crazy buttfucking Americans who hate weird English crackheads. Hes so ugly too this man does not have an upside about him, hes not even a cute looking knobhead (English word for asshole).
69. EveryoneBugsMe - March 1, 2007 2:53 PM
In photograph #1 there is a little girl between her parents. In photograph #2 she is gone.
I think we all now know what he 'really' fed to the penguins.

He actually meant to go the the Puffin enclosure, but got lost and ended up at the penguins, and said, Close enough.
73. licklick - March 1, 2007 4:45 PM
He could feed live babies to the penguins and be forgiven if he had even a speck of talent.
His music sucks and he is about as charming as a cat's butthole.

Penguin abuse sickens me or any sort of abuse done by some spoiled shit taking advantage of a trusting animal. Thankfully, i have nothing against abusing british crackheads, in fact, i encourage beating them senseless then "buggering" them in an alley till their asshole can double as a bowling ball bag.
I just hope this human waste gets what he deserves.

81. My_Jaw_Hurts - March 1, 2007 7:47 PM
My favourite thing about those pictures is that nobody is trying to stop him, nobody looks impressed, and people are actually leaning in to watch, even though they almost definitely knew that Pete Dougherty was about to feed a joint to a penguin. Either it's the UK's weakened defense or British comedy has seriously gone downhill... wait. I got it. They're filming an episode of Extras!
82. Denimpetal - March 2, 2007 12:34 PM
what a fuck-wit.
number three lmao
I don't care about him taking drugs, but ffs, there were kids there
animal cruelty anyone?
Mind you I wouldn't of expected the penguin to pick it up and "immediately" swallow it.
83. The Mortician - March 2, 2007 8:22 PM
Aren't penguins always wobbly? I mean that's how they walk.

Oh Peter, I will always love you. Let's live on a land surrounded by penguin feathers and have blazed sex. Yummm.
85. SuperChic - March 3, 2007 7:56 PM
The rumor that some people are smarter than animals as you know is a complete myth. In fact there is that small % who obviously looked like they evolved, only on the outside physically. On the inside they have little baby brains really small about the size off a pea. As you can observe from the picture of Peter giving a penguin a joint, I think he actually thinks he is sharing with a fellow human in a bonding moment too wierd for us to comprehend. He honestly can't tell the difference. This is a wierd type of behavior from unevolved pea sized brain humans by the way.
86. Lowlands - March 4, 2007 8:36 AM
I don't know how this joint went to work out on the penguin.But there're two ways to check this out.If the penguin runs to him the next time and greets him in an very enthusiastic way,it probably worked out well.If the penguin runs away from him as fast as possible and in a noisy way then the penguin doesn't want to see him again,also not in a next life.

92. METTY - February 24, 2008 5:57 AM
if penquins want to smoke weed they will smoke weed regardless if pete gives it to them, we have got to accept this. We all know penquins are habitual line steppers and im sure this penquin knew exactly what he was getting him self into, Oxfordishire penquins have a TERRIBLE reputation when it comes to drugs and penquins on the whole have gained a notirous reputation of been anti social thugs that terrorize the public, so say what you like about pete i personally think what he diod was very brave, it was kind of like the behaviour of a modern day Gandi.
93. hhh - February 28, 2008 6:43 AM
it annoys the shit outta me when reporters and the general public get the wrong idea about weed, you have to smoke it to get high, not just eat a joint.
And why has the penquin got off so easy, he did eat the joint afterall, i mean noone forced it to.
