Doherty 'suicidal after turning 30'

Pete Doherty has revealed that he tried to kill himself after turning 30.

The Babyshambles frontman attempted to throw himself off a building at his birthday party, Metro reports.

"I had this bash in Paris and it was an absolute disgrace," Doherty told Elle magazine. "I just made a bit of an idiot out of myself. We had a right old knees-up.

"I don't even know what happened but I ended up trying to throw myself off the top of the hotel. I wasn't happy at all about being 30."

The singer explained that he had drunk a bottle of vodka, adding: "They presented me with this cake and I pushed it in the chef's face who'd just made it for me.

"Then the chef and the security guards were chasing me around. I think I escaped unscathed. It was hilarious. I had a great night."
