Ian Watkins will spend another ten weeks in police custody, after being charged with a number of sex offences.
He is charged with six child sex offences, including conspiring with a 24 year old female fan to rape a girl under 13, and conspiring with the 24 year old and another woman to engage in sexual activity with a boy under 13.
Watkins, along with the two women, appeared at Cardiff Magistrates Court this morning. They only spoke in order to confirm their names, which is a formality in the legal process. Watkins' mother was in attendance in the public gallery.
He was originally remanded on 19 December, and spent Christmas in Parc Prison in Bridgend, South Wales. An application for bail to a judge in Cardiff Crown Court was adjourned for another hearing to take his plea on the charges on 11 March.
Watkins is also accused of three separate charges of possession, making and distribution of indecent images of children, as well as possession of 'extreme pornography' some involving animals.
Two women, a 20 year old from Doncaster and a 24 year old from Bedford, have also both been remanded in custody.

"We are learning about the details of the investigation along with you.
"It is a difficult time for us and our families, and we want to thank our fans for their support as we seek answers."
