Kate Moss photographed snorting cocaine

Supermodel Kate Moss has been photographed snorting cocaine.

The British beauty is shown inhaling a large line of the white powder through a rolled up banknote while lover Pete Doherty, a self-confessed drug addict, looks on.

The pictures - published in Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper today (15.09.05) - were taken last week as Babyshambles frontman Doherty recorded in a London studio.

Stunning Kate, who has a two-year-old daughter Lilla, is seen crushing and chopping lines of cocaine on a CD cover.

While her boyfriend and his friends watch, the model prepares around 20 lines of the Class A drug, using a credit card to separate the powder into neat rows.

At one point she snapped: "I'll do it. I'll do it."

The 31-year-old catwalk queen reportedly partied into the early hours of the morning, looking increasingly unsteady and frequently rubbing her nose between lines.

The cover girl - who spent six weeks in a rehab clinic in 1998 - has always denied using hard narcotics like cocaine.

Seven years ago she told a Channel 4 documentary: "I don't do any Class A - especially not heroin - after seeing what it does to people."

She later admitted to problems with alcohol and drugs - but always insisted she didn't use Class A substances.

She revealed two years ago: "Dabbling is fine but when I was bang on it, that wasn't a nice time. I was miserable anyway.

"Drugs enhanced all the misery and I got into this spiral. I still drink but I don't do drugs."
