World Is Ending.... Prince Crackhead In Jail!!!

Like finally!!!!!!

British rocker Pete Doherty has been sentenced to 14 weeks in jail for his drug use and failure to attend probation hearings in a timely manner.

The Babyshambles frontman was handed the prison term on Tuesday (08Apr08), after appearing at West London Magistrates Court. Judge Davinder Lachar, who presided over the case, has previously given Doherty a suspended jail sentence for various other drug offences. A court spokesperson says Doherty had been sentenced for “breach of time keeping, non-compliance of his order and using different drugs“.

Doherty is now looking to appeal the ruling in a bid to press ahead with his tour schedule, which includes a date at London’s Royal Albert Hall on April 26 and the Glastonbury festival in June. However, in a statement from his record label Parlophone, label bosses claim the Royal Albert Hall gig will be postponed until after Doherty has completed his prison stint.

The statement reads: “(The Royal Albert Hall concert) is due to be rescheduled and all tickets will be valid for the new date once it has been announced. Peter was very much looking forward to the show and would like to offer his sincerest apologies to all his fans and all those concerned”.
