Tommy Lee’s wife Brittany recently recalled his husband’s ‘worst’ hotel story with Mötley Crüe.
In the new episode of This Is The Worst Podcast, she said:
“The first really bad one is Tommy’s story. When he was in Mötley, they were staying in a hotel and they got in trouble because obviously they were being f*cking nightmares,” Britanny said of the band. “They were bad. They would run around the hallways naked. They would f*cking throw TVs out of windows and sh*t. They were just a f*cking nightmare.”
“The hotel was like ‘You gotta get the f*ck out of here. You gotta leave. We’re kicking you guys out.’ I guess there was nowhere to go in the middle of the night, or what was happening [was that] they wouldn’t get to another hotel right away, so he was p*ssed off,” she recalled before going into more detail about what happened next.
“So he always carries, and to this day, he still carries a little leatherman. He unscrews the f*cking vent where the heater is, up top. He takes a dinner plate that he ate some food on, takes a giant hot sh*t on the dinner plate, puts it in the vent, puts the f*cking vent cover back on, cranks the heat in the room and bounces,” she added.
Surprisingly, this isn’t the first time Mötley Crüe was kicked out of a hotel. They were famously evicted after a biting incident involving Van Halen.
The incident occurred when Vince Neil approached Eddie Van Halen and started a conversation. However, things took a turn when Vince unexpectedly bit the iconic guitarist’s hand, a reaction that Eddie did not appreciate.Furious, he shouted, “What the f*ck is wrong with you?” before storming off.
This incident not only got them kicked out of the hotel but also nearly cost them their spot on the Van Halen tour, much to the frustration of their manager, Doc McGhee.
Mötley Crüe are gearing up for their Las Vegas residency on March 28th next year.
