Shane MacGowan, 64, sips bubbly and puffs on vape with Kate Moss during rare night out

Shane MacGown and Kate Moss, 48, appeared in good spirits as they partied together in London.

The two stars joined forces on Tuesday night [October 11] as The Pogues singer launched his new art exhibition at the Andipa art gallery in London's Knightsbridge, where the iconic Fairytale of New York hitmaker's works are set to sell for up to an eye-watering £32,000.

Shane told fans to "Bring lots of money" as he appeared at the event in his wheelchair and donning dark sunglasses indoors - puffing on a disposable ElfBar vape as he chatted with model Kate and sipping on what appeared to be a glass of fizz, possibly a non-alcoholic version of champagne.

The singer's exhibition, named The Eternal Buzz and the Crock of Gold, comes as the star continues to recover from a serious knee injury, which saw the aspiring artist find himself bed bound after falling in his home last year - with Shane even losing his appetite for several days while confided to his bed nursing his broken knee.

Shane - who has been sober since 2016 - has been confined to a wheelchair for the last few years, after breaking his pelvis in 2015.

"Some days are better than others. He doesn't complain about being in pain, but it can't be hard," his long-term partner Victoria Mary Clarke told the Irish Post last year.

"Shane doesn't have any sort of disease but he broke his pelvis a few years ago and since then he's had trouble walking. I do get help with the caring but he likes it when we can eat together and when I'm there."

Victoria accompanied Shane to his art exhibition on Tuesday night, looking chic and stylish in a striking gold ensemble as she rested her leg on the arm of the iconic rocker's wheelchair.

Shane wore a crisp white shirt and blue blazer for his big night out and puffed on his vape as Kate posed behind him, wearing understated black dress with sheer tights and some necklaces adding a splash of colour to her outfit.

The trio were joined by other stars such as Bob Geldof, as Shane's artwork went up for sale - with the singer joking 'They won't get any cheaper' on Instagram as the event begun on Tuesday evening.

"They'll be like Picasso before you know it," his partner Victoria jokingly added.

The artworks have been brought together in a 502-page, limited edition monograph which also includes contributions from journalist Victoria and Hollywood actor Johnny Depp, who is a friend of the couple.

Speaking about Shane's work, the Pirates of the Carribean actor has previously said: "Shane’s visions will speak for themselves. Sometimes they will invoke wonder, sometimes they might appear decidedly threatening, but, regardless of medium, his work will always be full of poetry."

The gallery said in a statement: "Andipa is delighted to present The Eternal Buzz and the Crock of Gold, an exhibition by the acclaimed singer-songwriter Shane MacGowan.

"His work, which has been described by the art critic, Waldemar Januszczak, as possessing a "demented, wild, fascinating, scabrous kind of energy", will be represented by twenty small-scale drawings mostly dating from the 1980s."
