Motley Crue Drummer Tommy Lee’s Tumultous Marriages

If you’ve not seen Netflix’s Dirt; now is the time. The movie showcases the lives and struggles of bandmembers from Motley Crue. Quoted “The World’s Most Notorious Band”, Motley Crue has definitely made its mark. Both through their music and their personal havoc hell. While seeing them from a third person’s perspective it gets hard to understand the reason behind their madness. The movie, however, aims to solve just that.

Motley Crue

Post watching Dirt, you get an up close and personal view of Motley Crue’s band-fellows lives. I can safely say it does inspire a bit of empathy for the blokes. After all, they did have a lot of crazy sh*t going down in their personal lives. All except for one, and that is Tommy Lee, Drummer and Motley Crue bandmate.

He’s perhaps the only member of Motley Crue lacking a tragic past (at least according to Netflix’s Dirt). And is probably the character a normal viewer would empathize with the most. Hailing from a conservative tightly knit Christian family, Tommy Lee turns the tables upside down through his journey with Motley Crue.

Tommy’s weakness

When Tommy’s bizarrely normal parents (played by Joe Chrest and Elena Evangelo) show up at one of the band’s concerts, the drummer excitedly introduces them to Roxy (Jordan Lane Price), his new fiancée. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to Tommy, Roxy has just finished f**king Nikki in the dressing room, where the bassist capped their encounter by doing a line of coke off her naked a*s; nevertheless, as Tommy’s mom quickly discovers, she’s actually quite sensitive about being called a “groupie.” This, you think to yourself, will not end well — and you’d be right.
