Doherty wanted job at 'Loaded' magazine

Pete Doherty has revealed that he wanted to work for lads' magazine Loaded when he was younger.

The Babyshambles frontman said he attempted to get a job with the publication after he posted in copies of his own football fanzine.

Speaking about his passion for the mag, he said: "I always read Loaded. I bought the first ever one.

"I used to live on an army barracks and a lot of the boys used to have an interest in the magazine. They probably still do."

He told Loaded: "In fact I once wrote in. I was writing a QPR fanzine at the time and I wrote in saying, 'Why don't you review my fanzine?'

"I asked for a job, too. I used to ring up the office all the time saying, 'You said you'd review it, you said you would - now I'm the laughing stock. Giss' a job'."
