LOS ANGELES (AFP) - US movie star Tom Sizemore was sentenced to 21 months in jail after repeatedly failing drug tests while on probation for beating notorious Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss.

But Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Antonio Barreto allowed Sizemore to remain free pending an appeal of his 2003 conviction for domestic violence involving his ex-girlfriend Fleiss.
Before being sentenced, an emotional Sizemore pleaded for the judge, who could have jailed the star of such films as "Saving Private Ryan" and "Black Hawk Down," for four and a half years, not to do so.
"I didn't do the initial things I was accused of doing," he said. "I deserve a second chance, sir. I've never been in trouble before.
"I assure your honour that I'm not acting now. I'm not acting, I'm begging, I'm beseeching you. I cannot imagine my future without performing," the 43-year-old Sizemore said.
Sizemore was found guilty on February 24 of violating probation and of being in possession of methamphetamine and prosecutors said he failed seven drug tests and admitted to the use of drugs.
He was sentenced to six months' jail and three years' probation in October 2003 after being convicted of beating and threatening Fleiss, who was earlier convicted of supplying prostitutes to the stars.
Fleiss, 37, hit international headlines when officials tried to force her to reveal her "black book" of prostitution clients, who included Hollywood powerplayers and stars, following her arrest in an undercover sting operation in 1995.
She left prison in 1998 after serving 20 months of a 37-month term for conspiracy, money laundering, tax evasion and attempted pandering.
During Sizemore's trial, Fleiss testified tearfully to being battered by her ex-boyfriend.
