Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty dedicated a song to lover Kate Moss, describing her as his fiancee as she appeared on stage alongside him.

Performing a solo gig at the Hackney Empire in east London, he introduced the track "KP Nuts", and said: "I am dedicating this song..." before the crowds interrupted him to shout out "Kate, Kate".

The singer then replied: "Yes, to my beautiful fiancee."

Engaged: Pete dedicated a song to his fiancee Kate and she proudly wears a ring on her engagement finger

Moss was wearing a ring on her engagement finger as she performed briefly alongside her boyfriend, who was wearing a grey suit, colourful necklaces and his trademark hat.

I got you babe: They're no Sonny and Cher but Kate is happy to singalong with fiance Pete

As has become her custom, she hurried to the microphone twice to sing her line in the Babyshambles song La Belle Et La Bete ("Is she more beautiful than me?").

The first time she made her rude gesture, the second time she skipped like a schoolgirl.

A home video featuring the pair, has become a hit on the internet after it was posted on YouTube.

Doherty is seen strumming a guitar as Moss enters the room in a see-through dress, wearing nothing underneath but a pair of knickers.

YouTube has already recorded some 31,000 hits for the three-minute clip.

Kate is becoming accustomed to sharing the stage with her rocker fiance Pete Doherty

Doherty's solo gig had some critics lamenting the passing of his wilder excesses.

Billed as An Evening With Pete Doherty, the first of two solo sell-out shows at the Hackney Empire, it passed without incident.

While an invitation to an evening with Pete Doherty once would have promised blood on the walls and drugs everywhere, the Hackney Empire instead witnessed only the tenderest of moments.

Moss and Doherty's rocky on-off relationship has been well-documented since they met at her 31st birthday party at her home in Primrose Hill, north London, in January 2005.

The couple shared the tenderest of moments both on and off-stage

The couple revealed their engagement in October last year and speculation about when and where they will marry has been rife ever since.

A new photoshoot provides further evidence that Kate may finally be preparing to settle down.

Photographed at the kitchen table at her Gloucestershire home or else in an embrace with her fiance Pete Doherty, the supermodel appears to be enjoying a new-found domesticity - at odds with her image as a drug-fuelled rock chick.

The pictures were taken ahead of the much-anticipated launch of her first clothing range for Top Shop on 1 May.

She is wearing pieces from the collection in the photographs taken for the latest issue of Dazed & Confused, the magazine founded by Jefferson Hack, Moss's ex-boyfriend and the father of her daughter.
