Adam Ant Arrested, Re-enters Hospital

Adam Ant

Poor Adam Ant. The '80s pop singer, famous for hits like "Goody Two Shoes" is seemingly once again suffering from mental distress.

Yesterday (June 11) Ant (real name Stuart Leslie Goddard) was arrested in his neighbourhood in London after he was reportedly chucking rocks through his neighbour's window.

Ant was arrested and later booked for suspicion of criminal damage.

According to reports, after Ant was released on bail, he was taken to a psychiatric hospital. His case will be heard in front of the courts in July. Ant has, sadly, proven the rule that all the pop stardom in the world can't buy happiness or mental stability.

After selling over 15 million records in the '80s, Ant has long been plagued with various mental and emotional problems. In 1994 he reportedly checked himself into a Miami psychiatric clinic after his solo career failed to take off. Ant was in the news last year when he was arrested following a London pub brawl.

Ant showed up at the bar dressed in a cowboy suit and brandishing a pistol. When patrons started to mock him, Ant allegedly flipped out and threatened to shoot them. Following his arrest he was placed under 12-month community rehabilitation and entered a psychiatric hospital.
