The 33-year-old English singer Pete Doherty was recently announced to head to Thailand for rehab. The singer, which became prominent in tabloids and news media in 2005 because of his romantic relationship with model Kate Moss and his frequently-publicised drug addictions, is now gone in Thailand to rehab for heroin and crack cocaine addiction.

The singer previously told NME.com about his intention of heading to rehab and now (June 26) a statement on his official website reads:

"Peter has left the building, well not quite, more the country, on his way to rehab in Thailand. He left Heathrow last night and will have arrived in Thailand this morning. We wish him well. He has plans to continue working on his new songs for the album which is eagerly awaited.

Well, he's not leaving for good and did left his fans some new music as he revealed two tracks earlier this week. The tracks - "Siberian Fur" and "Down For the Outing" - are lifted from the former Libertines man's upcoming second solo album, one of which featured Doherty rapping.
