Marilyn Manson has recently told of his fears of a second jail term. He hasn't committed a crime, he just didn't like it much the first time around. And that would be the point.

But Manson's two-day jail spell is insignificant to the crimes committed by other musicians, with stars finding themselves involved in drugs, perjury, firearms and even murder cases. Manson was jailed for rubbing his willy on a man's head, so we don't think he'll go down in history for his misdemeanour.
