London, Mar 9 : English singer Marianne Faithfull has dubbed supermodel Kate Moss as `vampire' for copying her style.

The disgruntled rock icon, who was once a close friend with Moss, insists they are no longer buddies.

The 62-year-old star has even accused the model of copying her choice of man in her romance with The Kills' Jamie Hince.

"She's not really my friend. I thought she was, but she's very clever," the Mirror quoted Faithfull as saying.

"She wanted to read me like a braille book. And she did. It's a vampirical thing.

"Now I see pictures of her with a boy who looks like Mick Jagger, and her looking like me.

"So there was a reason. It's one of her gigs to do me," she added.

Faithfull, who has just taken a long break on doctors' orders following treatment for breast cancer insists that they were once fond of each other.

"And then it suddenly soured."

"She's very clever, but she isn't at all educated. We don't have any common references. Except music," said Faithfull. (ANI)
