Troubled musician Pete Doherty will serve 6 months in jail after pleading guilty to cocaine possession in London on Friday.

During the hearing, Judge David Radford told the rocker, "You have an appalling record of committing offences of the kind for which you fall to be sentenced today."

The charge stemmed from his arrest last March, when the Babyshambles frontman was suspected of providing drugs to Robyn Whitehead, a 27-year-old heiress working on a documentary about the musician, who was incidentally found dead from a suspected overdose.

During a search of Whitehead's London apartment, cops found film footage showing Doherty smoking crack, shot just two days before her death. The Babyshambles front-man was immediately arrested by police investigating her death.

Kate Moss' ex was reportedly working on a comeback album, and was in the midst of planning a UK tour.

Troubled British rocker Pete Doherty has been hospitalized in France, according to online reports. The Babyshambles singer was due to perform at the Theatre de Verdure in Nice, but the show was cancelled as the singer was admitted to a local hospital. No word on why he was hospitalized, but concertgoers were told that the gig would be rescheduled at a later date.

This is probably for the best, seeing as Pete looked like he was about to pass out just a few hours earlier in the day:

I guess he couldn't wait until arriving at his next destination!

Rocker Pete Doherty is currently in Berlin doing who knows what, and our photogs overseas spotted him carrying a bottle (of beer?) in his coat pocket. That's so Pete! And just look at his hair:

Not exactly Rob Pattinson-like, is it!

The commentary on this vid dfrom our French correspondents in Paris is almost as hilarious as Babyshambles front man Pete Doherty's own frequent rants on camera!

As we all learned from Mean Girls, "frenemies" are enemies who act like friends and "fraitors" are friends who secretly hate you. Of course, this kind of drama doesn't just exist in movies - it's very much present in young Hollywood!

For our first example, look at Lindsay Lohan (star of MG) and her BFF Samantha Ronson. But has Sam always been a good influence on Linds? At least she's helping LiLo with her new album now... our favorite rehabber doesn't need anymore toxic people in her life!

Speaking of which, there's Brandon Davis - ya know, the one who launched the "firecrotch" tirade against the 21-year-old starlet. Heiress Paris Hilton used to be best buddies with this dude, but we're glad that's over with because Paris is better off without him!

And don't forget about the Brits! Rocker Pete Doherty has certainly influenced - at least to some degree - the hard-partying ways of ex Kate Moss and pal Amy Winehouse. Think these gals are better off on their own?

Finally, there's our beloved reality stars. With the return of The Hills, we can definitely expect to see more Lauren/Heidi/Spencer drama... but what's real and what's fake?

Guess that's the point - sometimes, you never can tell!

When celebs take a vacation in the City of Lights, they usually stay at ritzy places like the Plaza Athenee or the King George IV - unless, of course, they're Pete Doherty!

Apparently, the Babyshambles frontman's staying at a Holiday Inn - we caught him coming out yesterday afternoon for a walk and a drink.

Of course, with all the money he's saving, he's got plenty of discretionary cash - perhaps that's why we caught Pete perusing a porn store's wares!

Pete Doherty gets a lot of scorn for his ongoing battles with addiction - but you certainly can't say he's not a personable fellow!

Yesterday, for instance, we caught him at the Gare du Nord station in Paris as he waited for the next Eurostar train to London.

Watch how friendly Pete is with his fans - he stands around forever politely chitchatting and signing autographs for anyone who asks!

Hopefully Pete gets his act together soon - after all, there's nothing his real fans would rather see!

I guess it was only a matter of time before two of Britain's most infamous addicts met up - The Daily Mail is reporting that Amy Winehouse receieved a visit from Kate Moss' ex Pete Doherty at 4am Tuesday morning. And that's not all - while Amy was moving out of the house she shared with incarcerated hubby Blake and into a new place Monday night, she was photographed with a large baggie of "white powder" amongst her things in the trunk of her car. Pete was seen leaving her house later that morning with some white stuff all over his pants. Hey, maybe he was just helping her spackle!
