British rock singer Ian Watkins has pleaded guilty to a string of sex offences, including the attempted rape of baby.
The former lead singer with multi-million selling band Lostprophets made a series of admissions at Cardiff Crown Court.
On the opening day of his trial, Watkins from Pontypridd, south Wales, insisted he has no memory of what would have been key video evidence at the trial showing the abuse of his one-year-old victim, the court heard.
The singer pleaded guilty to a string of sex offences he had previously denied.
The charges included sexually touching a one-year-old child and encouraging a crazed groupie to abuse her own child during a sordid webcam chat.
Watkins also admitted possessing and making child porn, as well as launching the plot to rape a baby.
The disgraced rocker was originally charged with actual rape, but insisted sex with the child did not take place during a drug-fuelled binge he says he was on at the time.
Watkins originally faced 24 separate charges, all sex offence related.
He pleaded guilty to 11 charges today, nine of which were unchanged and two of attempted baby rape, as opposed to rape.
