Wave of Public Sympathy Shows ‘Cocaine Kate’ Still Adored By the British.

Kate Moss’s popularity remains undented in the public eye after sales of a T-shirt showing compassion for her plight skyrocket.

(PRWEB) October 12, 2005 — A Range of t-shirts showing support for cocaine shame model Kate Moss have been selling “fantastically well,” according to the t-shirts’ designer, proving that the girl from Croydon still holds a special place in the publics’ hearts.

The devastated 31-year-old, now in rehab in Arizona, got the axe from H&M, Chanel, Burberry and Gloria Vanderbilt, in the wake of tabloid photos being printed last month showing her using the Class A drug cocaine.T-shirt designer Lucy, of ‘Hoodlum designs’- who has printed up a range of t-shirts showing sympathy for Kate- says: “I’m very pleased with the positive sales figures we have had from the t-shirt.

“Kate always has and continues to be a favourite with the public, particularly in Britain and this proves it.”What someone in Kate’s situation should realise is that a substance-abuse problem is not a shameful thing to admit to and that there IS help out there.

“One thing I would stress is that we are not trying to glamourise drug use, laugh at it, or treat it lightly.”We want to show Kate and people in Kate’s situation, that there is a lot of love, support and help out there for them.”

One of Lucy’s pro-Kate t-shirts bares the slogan ‘Free Cocaine Kate’, with an artist’s impression of the model abusing the drug.’Hoodlum Designs’ products are available online from as little as £9.40 at www.spreadshirt.net/shop.php?sid=84736

One pound from the sale of each t-shirt will be donated to various UK drug charities to help raise awareness of where those who are suffering from substance abuse, or worried relatives, can get help.

One such drug charity;-‘Turning Point’ released a report in September stating that more people use crack than heroin in the UK and that the number of crack users in London has risen by 10%. They are now calling on the government to help stem the use of crack cocaine within the UK.
