Pete Doherty Warned to Stay Away From Amy Winehouse
Pete Doherty's ex-girlfriend has told the troubled rocker to stay away from Amy Winehouse -- if he wants to remain in his five-year-old son's life.
The drug-addled rocker, who was recently released from jail, has been allowed to spend more time with his son, Astile, but the Babyshambles star's ex, Lisa Moorish, is said to be furious over the time he's spending with the 'Rehab' singer; and has issued him with an ultimatum.
A source said, "Lisa won't allow Astile to be with his dad if he's hanging around with the wrong people or using drugs, and Amy is off limits because she's still on them.
"Lisa told Pete he has to choose between Amy and his son."
Pete, 29, has, over the past few weeks, made several visits to the Grammy Award winning singer's London flat. And last weekend, a video of the pair playing with baby mice and slurring their words appeared on You Tube.
A day after Pete posted the video on the site, Lisa let him take their son to a celebrity soccer event in London.
The pal added to British magazine Closer, "Because he spent a few weeks in jail, the soccer match was the first time in three months that he'd seen Astile. He had promised Lisa that he was back on track and would stay off drugs.
"But when Amy showed up at the pitch to support him, Pete panicked because he knew Lisa would worry about Astile being around that set of people."
Pete was then thrown out of the event after urinating in a trophy.
"Lisa just wants Pete on the straight and narrow, and with a good bunch of friends around him so that Astile gets what he deserves, which is time with his dad," the source said.

Rio Tinto Alcan sponsors free outdoor program and offsets carbon emissions for the 2008 Festival International de Jazz de Montreal
MONTREAL, June 2 - Rio Tinto Alcan is pleased to
co-present the free outdoor program for the 2008 Festival International de
Jazz de Montreal for the third consecutive year. Rio Tinto Alcan will also
contribute to offsetting the carbon emissions of the Festival, making it
carbon neutral for the first time.
"It is with great pleasure that Rio Tinto Alcan once again takes an
active part in one of the world's premier music festivals, the Festival
International de Jazz de Montreal," said Dick Evans, chief executive, Rio
Tinto Alcan.
"This four-year sponsorship commitment of over $6 million runs through
to 2010 and reinforces Rio Tinto Alcan's ongoing commitment to Montreal,
our home town. Furthermore, in keeping with our sustainability mindset, we
are proud to help make it one of the first major events of its kind in
North America to be carbon neutral," added Evans.
The Rio Tinto Alcan stage, at the Saint-Catherine's Street entrance of
the Complexe Desjardins, will be the site of numerous free concerts
throughout the Festival. On July 6, Rio Tinto Alcan will once again host
the grand closing event - a free outdoor concert featuring acclaimed
Guinean artist Mory Kante.
Rio Tinto Alcan also sponsors the Invitation series of concerts at the
Place des Arts, featuring jazz greats Hank Jones, McCoy Tyner and Dave
Brubeck. The popular Rio Tinto Alcan Musical Park and the Little Jazz
School returns in 2008, providing families with free access to a variety of
outdoor fun including games, educational activities, face-painting and
creation of musical instruments from aluminium.
"Each year the city of Montreal vibrates to the rhythms of the Festival
and we are proud to be a part of it. As in previous years, Rio Tinto Alcan
will support the Festival's recycling and waste reduction program that
allows for the recuperation of approximately 20.5 tonnes of material every
year. Aluminium and recycling go hand-in-hand, so sponsoring this program
is a natural for Rio Tinto Alcan," said Jacynthe Cote, president and chief
executive officer of the Rio Tinto Alcan Primary Metal business unit.
"Climate change is a global challenge and we all must do our part to
minimise its impacts. Since 1990 Rio Tinto Alcan has reduced its greenhouse
gas emissions intensity by 60 per cent in Canada. By offsetting the carbon
emissions of the 2008 Festival, we will help contribute to its
sustainability and we will be making one more step in the right direction,"
added Cote.
"We are very happy of our continuing partnership with Rio Tinto Alcan,"
said Alain Simard, Festival International de Jazz de Montreal president and
founder. "Year after year, our fruitful collaboration allows the Festival
to increase its offering to music lovers through a growing number of
activities and free shows."
To neutralize the Festival's emissions-estimated at 2,000 tonnes of C02
equivalent-Rio Tinto Alcan will purchase Gold Standard certified offsets
through Planetair. This unique collaboration between Rio Tinto Alcan, the
Festival International de Jazz de Montreal, the Fonds d'action quebecois
pour le developpement durable and Planetair is breaking new ground in
developing and making publicly accessible tools to reduce major events'
climate footprints, including an emissions calculation methodology and a
guide to organizing climate-friendly major events.
The 2008 Festival International de Jazz de Montreal opens on June 26
and closes on July 6. For more than 11 days and nights, Montreal will roll
out the red carpet for over 3,000 musicians from every corner of the globe.
From jazz to soul to blues, with detours through traditional music, electro
and folk, the Festival International de Jazz de Montreal promises to
enchant music lovers of all ages.
