Justin Hawkins, lead singer with rock band The Darkness, punished himself for cheating on his girlfriend by having his penis pierced.

According to the Sun today, Justin did the dirty on his manager and long-term lover Sue Whitehouse last Christmas. To teach himself a lesson, the 28-year-old decided to put himself through an eye-watering "Prince Albert" operation - so named after Queen Victoria's husband sung the praises of penis piercings.

"Whenever I have a down I always put a piercing in to mark it," the singer told the newspaper. "I was miserable when I had my nipple done. And I was even more miserable when I had my c**k done. Me and Sue split up. I didn’t like myself much. I thought, what’s the most painful place to have a piercing? I’ve taken it out now."

Justin is now back together with his grilfriend.
