Very Unfriendly Reminder that Tommy Lee:
would regularly moon audiences during concerts,
was sued for assaulting a Jewish cameraman,
attempted to have a Nazi tattoo on his arm removed from evidence in said lawsuit to avoid the jury developing any prejudice against Lee,
was arrested alongside bandmate Nikki Six for using racial slurs against a black security guard, pouring liquor on him, and encouraging the crowd at their concert to attack the guard,
allegedly transmitted hepatitis C to Pamela Anderson during a tattoo session,
admitted to kicking Anderson while she was holding their infant son, Dylan,
attacked Anderson so she was left with bruises, a torn fingernail, and terrified for the safety of her two sons,
has said, of the necessary procedures that took place during his battle for equal custody of his sons: “Doesn’t it sound reasonable? […] We’re going through all this crazy bullshit of psychiatric evaluation […] It’s such an ugly, shitty situation, man, and it’s a big fucking waste of money. At some point both lawyers end up putting another new wing on their homes, and nobody benefits. Certainly the children don’t: they’re being interviewed by therapists. I mean, for God’s sake, they’re five and six years old. I just hope it’s over soon and I just hope I get to spend as much time with my kids as they do with their mum. That’s all I really want; I don’t care about anything else.”
In conclusion, he has done some truly, truly horrendous things, and if I see anyone romanticize him as an individual for whatever fictionalized version Hulu has created that Sebastian Stan will be portraying, I will lose my shit I swear to God. Please Don’t. Biopics are not biographies.
