Doherty: "I won't get outta bed...

...for less than $60,000"

British rocker PETE DOHERTY has snubbed a $10,000 offer to model for an online fashion retailer - insisting the "bare minimum" for his services is $60,000.
 
The Babyshambles frontman was approached by discount clothes website lastseason.com after hearing of his financial troubles in 2007, during which he claimed to have made a profit of just $58,300 from his touring and album releases (and possible sponging off ex-girlf Kate Moss?)
 
But the dishevelled star turned down the one-day modelling shoot, with his management emailing the company's founder Stefano Passantino saying: "I think you are batting substantially below the mark.
 
"The fee on this would be a bare minimum of $60,000 before we even begin to discuss anything."
 
And Passantino has slammed Doherty's outrageous demands.
 
He says, "I thought Pete could do with a day's work for what would be good money by anyone's standards. He is just not worth that much."
 
Earlier this month, the singer charged just $200 to perform at an English teen's birthday party, while he earned a staggering $30,000 for an up-close-and-personal set for an American millionaire last weekend.

Oh, to be famous eh!
