JUSTIN HAWKINS $2000. A WEEK DRUG HABBIT ALMOST KILLED HIM

Flamboyant singer Justin Hawkins used to spend more than $2,000 a week on drugs.The former Darkness frontman has revealed he spent huge amounts of money fuelling his drug and alcohol addiction. Justin told Britain's Guardian newspaper : "I took a load of drugs. I would say that some weeks it was worse than that."Following a stint battling his addiction at London The Priory rehab clinic,the 31-year-old has managed to stay clean. Justin said: "I haven't touched a granule of cocaine or a drop of alcohol for months. In fact, I've given up smoking now as well."The rocker - who recently said he dreamt of representing the UK in this year's Eurovision Song Contest in Helsinki - has vowed he will never use drugs again."I'm not going to do anything that jeopardises my health. I didn't like it there. It's a dark place."
