Pete Doherty Before Fame, Fortune and Drug Addiction

This is a great vintage clip of MTV interviewing Pete Doherty as an unknown teen waiting in line to buy the latest Oasis CD at the time.

He keeps the interviewer entertained with his quips and even references Italian philosopher Umberto Eco.

Pete's fresh faced appearance is a far cry from dishevelled look he adopts today.

Showing early signs of his talent for poetry the teenager declares: "I subscribe to the Umberto Eco view that Noel Gallagher's a poet and Liam's a town crier and I've always seen that as a perfect combination."
