Please Give A Warm Welcome To The Newest Celebrity Scientologist, Mr. Pete Doherty

Having (so far) failed to entice British power duo Posh 'n Becks into their ever-growing nest of celebrity Scientologists, Tom Cruise and Co. have apparently decided that their next best approach to conquering Great Britain is to aim a few notches lower on the celebrity totem pole. The Sun is reporting that 2007 tabloid fixture Pete Doherty is "is hooked on the barmy religion which believes humans are an exiled race from outer space" [Ed. Note - Barmy?] and that he "has bought a pile of books on the subject" ever since falling into the sack with a Scientologist DJ (presumably not Danny Masterson, but you never know). But if we were running the CoS, we'd be a wee bit nervous about inducting Doherty into the clan; despite having killed more brain cells than Ozzy Osbourne, Pete's not exactly the kind of guy one should entrust with keeping secrets.
