Her increasingly desperate attempts to dabble in the music industry have resulted in yet another embarrassing public snub for Kate Moss.
The 34-year-old, who has hired a villa in Ibiza for the summer, tried to join Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe on the decks while he played at the Amnesia nightclub.
‘Kate’s been pestering Zane to go on his radio show, so when she saw him
in Ibiza she thought she’d seize the chance to join him on stage,’ says a source.
‘Zane likes Kate, but his minders took exception to her trying to get into the DJ box and told her to leave because she was making a nuisance of herself.’
Kate was once booed off stage when she sang with her ex Pete Doherty and Babyshambles.
She was also banned from joining boyfriend Jamie Hince’s band The Kills
at Glastonbury this year on the strict instructions of lead singer Alison Mosshart.
Kate has been holidaying in the Balearics with a host of celebrity pals, including Topshop tycoon Sir Philip Green, Sylvester Stallone and designer Marc Jacobs.
Along for the cruise if Kate’s mother Linda and daughter Lila Grace - whose father is her ex-boyfriend, publisher Jefferson Hack.
Notably absent has been boyfriend Jamie, who has been performing with his band in the U.S.

SUPERMODEL Tyra Banks has appeared on a magazine cover in the role of US presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s wife, Michelle.
The latest edition Harpers Bazaar features an interview with Banks and picture spread depicting her as First Lady and an Senator Obama lookalike as president.
Banks said before Senator Obama’s campaign for the White House she did not believe she would see a black president in her lifetime.
“When Barack won the nomination, I just started bawling. I started calling all these people, and everybody was talking to me like I was crazy,” she told Harpers Bazaar.
“They’re like, ‘Well, he hasn’t won yet,’ but I’m like, ‘Yes, he has, because he’s gotten this far.’ I think he gives everybody so much hope.”
Banks’s turn as a possible future First Lady follows Paris Hilton throwing her hat into the US presidential race, declaring her desire to campaign against “that wrinkly white-haired guy”
The blonde socialite responded to Republican candidate John McCain’s controversial use of her image in a campaign television spot last week with a satirical ad of her own posted on the website Funnyordie.com.
In the ad, the 27-year-old appears reclining on a sun lounger beside a swimming pool, dressed only in a skimpy leopard-print bathing costume.
“Hey America, I’m Paris Hilton and I’m a celebrity too,” she declares. “Only I’m not from the olden days and I’m not promising change like that other guy. I’m just hot.
“But then that wrinkly white-haired guy used me in his campaign ad, which I guess means I’m running for president. So thanks for the endorsement white-haired dude, and I want America to know I’m, like, totally ready to lead.”
