Michael Douglas sat in the second row for the sentencing in Manhattan Federal Court.


A judge sentenced Cameron Douglas to five years in prison Tuesday - and gave his family a scolding.

As a stone-faced Michael Douglas looked on from the second row, Manhattan Federal Judge Richard Berman said the pleas for leniency he received made too many excuses for the drug-dealing junkie.

"Get beyond and get over that idea ... that Cameron Douglas is a victim," Berman said.

Relatives including his dad, Michael Douglas; his grandpa Kirk Douglas, and his stepmom, Catherine Zeta-Jones, had sent letters to Berman, pushing for rehab instead of jail for the 31-year-old.

Berman gave him 60 months in prison, with credit for the eight months he has served for a total of 52 months - less than half of what the top charge carries.

He told Cameron Douglas the prison stint is his "last chance to make it."



He noted that the time he has been in federal lockup is his longest period sober since he was 13, and suggested he would have relapsed if released on bail.

Although Cameron Douglas' boldfaced relatives said they were fully behind his effort to kick his heroin habit, Berman said he didn't see how anything would be different this time around.

In a brief statement, Cameron Douglas pledged to stay clean and "not be led astray by my warped thinking and false pretences due to my heroin addiction.

"I want to take the right path ... I feel like it's my duty," he said, adding that he hoped to become "an entertainer" when he's freed.

"I apologize to my family and my loved ones for putting them through this nightmare of my making," he added.

Cameron Douglas was arrested last summer for dealing crystal meth out of the Gansevoort Hotel in the Meatpacking District - and busted again when his girlfriend tried to smuggle him drugs in an electric toothbrush.

He pleaded guilty, and court documents said he cooperated with the probe, which often helps reduce prison time.

Michael Douglas didn't say a word as he left court but was heard telling his son's lawyers, "It's fair."

His mother, Diandra Douglas, mouthed, "I love you" to her son in the courtroom.

Michael Douglas in 1969 (l.) and in 2010 (r.). The actor recently told Elle magazine that he was seduced by two of his mother's friends when he was 16/
He may not have starred in "The Graduate," but at 16 Michael Douglas met a real-life Mrs. Robinson -- two, in fact.

In an upcoming interview with Elle magazine, the star of "Fatal Attraction" says two of his mother's friends taught him everything he knows about sex.

The now 65-year-old actor says the women were both 30 at the time, but he would not reveal their names because his mother, Diana Dill, is still in the dark about the incident

"I wouldn�t want to get any of them in trouble," Douglas told the magazine. "Though they�re probably dead now."

The star of "Basic Instinct" is famous for his sexual exploits on and off screen. The actor recalled one night in university when he was in bed with one woman, and another popped out of his closet.

"Let�s just say that took care of the rest of the night," he told Elle.

Douglas settled down after meeting actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, who is 25 years his junior, in Deauville. The duo married in 2000 and has two children together.

Although Douglas says he was a "ridiculous gentleman" during their first year together, he does confirm his opening comment to Zeta-Jones was, "I want to father your children."

Though he seems to have found his true love, Douglas says that if he could have one more one night-stand he would choose Tina Turner.
