Don't let the drug use, spousal abuse, jail time, sex tapes, and "MAYHEM" tattoo stamped across his stomach fool you – public perception of Tommy Lee boils down to a trite Rock 'n Roll stereotype. I wondered what could have happened to make a class act like Tommy get escorted out of the MTV Music Awards? From TheLedger.com:
Written by DignanMTV VJ Sway said during the post-show that he saw Kid Rock walk up to the Motley Crue drummer, who was sitting next to Diddy, and "deck him." The incident was confirmed by Palms Hotel and Casino public relations representative Larry Fink.
Both Lee and Kid Rock are ex-husbands of Pamela Anderson, who was a presenter at the show and delivered her lines from atop a table in the audience. Although it wasn't clear whether the two rockers were fighting over something related to Anderson, it was hard to imagine another scenario.
