SHOCK! Pete Doherty to be nailed into a coffin

Babyshambles star Pete Doherty planning bizarre stunt for Dead Kids rock gig

Pete Doherty is a huge fan of rockers Dead Kids

Pete Doherty is said to have made an unusual Halloween bet with a rock band Dead Kids.

The singer has offered to be locked in a coffin full of rats for one hour if the group reduces one fan to tears while performing their song Fear And Fluoride.

Dead Kids are playing a set at a secret London location on 31 October and Pete, 29, says he'll join them on stage if they successfully meet his challenge.   

‘We get all sorts of delinquents at our gigs,’ says frontman Mike Title. ‘It must be the name. Maybe he needs a bit of joy in his life and Dead Kids make you happy.’

The party organisers reckon the stunt will complete the night's entertainment.

‘The theme of the party is the return of the plague, so undead, infected guests like Pete will fit in perfectly,’ a spokesman tells the Daily Star.

‘Dead Kids always put on a blinding show, so we don’t blame Pete for making the bizarre offer.’
