Doherty calls diaries "amazing nonsense"

Pete Doherty has spoken about his soon-to-be-published collection of diaries, labelling them "amazing nonsense".

Earlier this year the Babyshambles star secured a £150,000 deal for the book, entitled The Books of Albion.

The rocker told NME: "It's amazing nonsense. The book's very personal and very open. There'll be stuff that people haven't seen before.

"Very private thoughts, very private thoughts indeed. You'll have to wait and see. Raise a toast to it," the singer suggested.
