Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty is trying to clean up his image as a drug-taking bad boy, insisting his reputation doesn’t reflect who he really is. The rocker has earned a party name for himself for his wild drug-taking antics, but claims he is a new person after kicking his heroin habit last year. He says, "Obviously I’m off the drugs now. My public persona is nothing more than a horrible, cartoon-like monster that bears no relation to the quiet, shy, retiring, teetotal, police-loving, clean-nosed poet you see before you now."
