The Darkness' Justin Hawkins Admitted To The Priory

Front man of The Darkness, Justin Hawkins has been admitted to The Priory under the advice of his doctor.

Hawkins and his band were forced to pull out of a festival in Denmark last weekend after his doctor warned him to get complete rest.

His doctor left a statement on the bands website that read: �It is of paramount importance that he rests and recuperates over the next two weeks. I have advised him to cancel all work related activities.�

A source added to the Mirror: �Justin�s been feeling really low of late and he wanted to go somewhere he could clear his head.

�He�s been looking terrible at the moment. His skin�s taken on a yellowy pallor. The priory really is the best place for him.�

Ex-Darkness member Frankie Poullain accused Justin of using drugs while he was in the band, he said of his departure: �Unless you were in the druggy clique or the fawning circle of ass kissers, you�d find yourself persona non grata.�

And it gets worse�according to the Mirror, the band�s label, Warners, are considering dropping the band after their last single �Girlfriend� only reached number 39 in the charts.

Could this be the end of the Darkness?
