Rock star Bob Geldof has been awarded custody of the orphaned daughter of his former wife, Paula Yates, and INXS singer Michael Hutchence.

Britain's High Court said Monday it gave Geldof custody of 4-year-old Tiger Lily for a year so she could live with her three half-sisters from Yates' earlier marriage to Geldof.

Geldof has been caring for Tiger Lily since September, when Yates was found dead in her London home. Hutchence committed suicide in an Australian hotel room three years ago.
