It's one of the best jobs in the world, but that doesn't stop some music stars from finding themselves stuck behind bars – just ask Pete Doherty, who has been sentenced today (May 20) for six months for possessing cocaine.

To mark Doherty's imprisonment, Gigwise has taken a look at some other high-profile offenders and the crimes that have seen them serve time.

Our countdown includes serial offenders like George Micghael, who has found himself involved with the wrong side of the law, and wrong-place-wrong-time rappers like Lil' Wayne and T.I.

And there's even an appearance from Ian Brown, who was jailed in 1998 for threatening an air stewardess with plastic cutlery.
