Dress theft quiz for Peaches

    From todays Irish Independent


    Peaches Geldof could be questioned by police over an alleged dress theft from a clothes shop.

    Officers are investigating an allegation that the 22-year-old TV presenter stole a garment from the Three Amigos store in Camden Town, London.

    Owners of the shop are believed to have reported the incident after trying to contact her when they were unable to find the dress.

    The daughter of Boomtown Rats star Bob Geldof and his late wife Paula Yates has been linked to -- and exonerated over -- a string of shoplifting allegations in the past.

    A Scotland Yard spokesman said: "We can confirm police have received an allegation of theft. "It is alleged that on March 4 a woman stole a dress from a shop in Camden Road. Officers are investigating the alleged theft."

    Ms Geldof was accused of leaving the Victim store near Carnaby Street with a £500 dress in 2008 but later returned it to the shop, saying there had been a misunderstanding.

    She was also wrongly accused of stealing an item of clothing from east London shop Luna & Curious. Geldof "strenuously" denies the latest allegation.

    Quote - The source added: "There have been a number of misunderstandings over Peaches leaving shops without paying.

    "The shop owner feels that just because she is the daughter of a rock star it doesn't mean she shouldn't have to face the law like everybody else."

    Normal person shoplifting = arrested and charged

    "Celebrity" shoplifting = cry for help

    Maybe it is a deluded notion of celebrity. My missus said that she's heard of a well-known female z-list Irish celeb trying to walk out without paying for a haircut before.

    Pathetic. No-one else would be allowed to simply return a stolen garment to a shop because it was a misunderstanding.

    Talentless nobody...

    If someone told me peaches leaving shops without paying is a major issue I know I'd misunderstand!

    "So wait, they're growing legs and walking out of the shop?!"

    She does have issues to sort out yes .

    Psst : If she ever makes it onto the F celeb list at the London film premieres somebody should remind her that just like in LA , the expensive goody bags are for free.
