Peaches Geldof to be quizzed over 'drugs video'

Peaches Geldof will face police questions over a video which appears to show her purchasing drugs, according to a report today.

The News of the World claims that the 19-year-old daughter of former Boomtown Rat Bob features in the same film which exposed Amy Winehouse's use of crack cocaine and ecstasy in January.

The paper's report says that Geldof is seen handing over £190 to couple Jonny Blagrove and Cara Burton, who are suspected by police of running a celebrity drugs empire. It is said that Peaches then admits she will need to take Valium the next day in order to "come down" from the binge.

A police source told the newspaper: "She will be interviewed some time this week and asked to explain what is happening in the video and why she is handing money over to the couple. It is all part of a large investigation into alleged drugs dealing."

It is not the first time that Peaches has been caught up in a drugs controversy. In April 2006, she was snapped at a party using a "bullet", a device which is often used to inhale cocaine.

At the time, Peaches denied subsequent allegations of drug use, explaining: "That's a picture of someone lighting up a roll-up cigarette. But the perspective is that it looks like something else. It was just pathetic.

"I've never done coke. My friends do drugs but I would never use them. This is really upsetting for me. I'm not stupid. Why would I do that in front of a camera, for a start?"

Geldof was also caught up in a shoplifting row last month when she was accused of leaving a London store with a dress she had not paid for.

It's time they did more than "question" these druggie rock girls.

Who in their right fucking mind would name their child Peaches?

Hi Nicole, I think your question is also your answer.... lol
No one in their 'RIGHT' mind would name their child that. It was probably something that sounded good to her parents at the time when they were spaced off their face...

Who in their right fucking mind would name their child Peaches?

Her sisters are named much worse, they are the children of Bob Geldof and the late OH what's her name? Paula Yates.
