Adam Ant has been placed under a 12 month community rehabilitation order at the Old Bailey following that incident in a North London pub earlier this year. He will also have to pay £500 to the musician he injured when he hit out at locals at a Kentish Town establishment after they made fun of his appearance. Judge Jeremy Roberts made the Community Rehabilitation Order after saying he accepted the singer had suffered a temporary spell of mental illness: "The psychiatrists are agreed that you were suffering a temporary episode of a recognised mental disorder which could have substantially impaired the responsibility for what you did. Happily, you have now recovered from that episode." But he said he had to be sure such an incident would not happen again and that was why he was making the order.
