Tommy Lee had an epiphany and he shared it with all of us. He wrote, “I just realized why they call cover songs ‘covers’ because you want to cover your ears when you hear them 😖👈”
I wonder if he is referring to people who cover Mötley Crüe’s song or their cover of Madonna’s Like a Virgin. I wonder what she thinks of it. I actually like it.
When it comes to his Words of Wizdumb, I actually agree with him. It is rare the cover is ever better than the original. And that makes me want to cover my ears whenever I hear one.
When you think of the most bitching and coolest rockers of the ’80s, you think of Tommy Lee. You think of a guy wearing leather pants, when he was actually wearing clothes, marrying some of the most desired blondes, who doesn’t give a f*ck what anyone thinks so he destroyed hotel rooms, says whatever he wants and made sex tapes that showed off his huge mic.
Now that Mötley Crüe has retired from the road, he has some time hands. Therefore, he has taken to writing. The drummer, who literally marches to his beat, wrote a message to Trump supporters and Republican politicians that will make every Democrat want to high five him every time they see him. Forget all those Dems, who are running for President, this is the man who should be President. Imagine what the world would be like with him in charge. It would be so cool, it would help to lower the Earth’s climate system, therefore reversing Global Warming.
Think I am exaggerating, then read what he wrote below.
“You Trumpsters better pray that liberals never gain control of the WH again because we are going to pay you back so fucking hard for all of this shit. Planned Parenthoods on every damn corner. We’re going to repaint Air Force One, pussy hat pink and fly it over your beloved Bible Belt 6 days a week, tossing birth control pills, condoms & atheist literature from the cockpit. We’re going to tax your mega churches so bad Joel Olsteen will need to get a job at Chik Fil A to pay his light bill. Speaking of Chik Fil A, we’re buying all those and giving them to any LGBTQ person your sick cult leaders tortured with conversion therapy. Have fun with the new menu you bigoted fucks. Try the McPence. It’s a boiled unseasoned chicken breast that you have to eat in the closet with your mother. We’re going to gather up ALL of your guns, melt them down and turn them into a gargantuan metal mountain emblazoned with the face of Hillary Clinton. ALL parks will be renamed Rosa Parks asap. We’re replacing Confederate statues with BLM Leaders & Mexican immigrants. Every single public school will be renamed after a child that was kidnapped by this regime. And after we fumigate the WH, we’re repainting the whole thing rainbow. Fox News will be taken over and turned into a family refugee shelter. We’re turning Hannity’s office into a giant unisex bathroom with changing tables & free tampons. And every single time a Trumpster complains about any of the changes, we’re adding an openly gay character to a Disney movie.”
What are you looking for most out everything he said in that speech? I am looking forward to the rainbow-colored White House and getting my birth control at Planned Parenthood/Starbucks on every corner.
this process was everyday for 4 months straight filming The Dirt, and even longer when we had to add Tommy’s tattoos. go watch The Dirt on @netflix !! pic.twitter.com/VlhVmKbgvS
Machine Gun Kelly plays Tommy Lee in the Mötley Crüe biopic The Dirt on Netflix. Like the drummer, Colson Baker also has a shirt of tattoos. His ink is not like Lee’s, so the makeup department had to cover it up everyday for the four month that they filmed the movie. Therefore, they put on a darker colored foundation on to hide his tats and then put a lighter one on to match Lee’s paler skin. When they were done, you couldn’t see any of Baker’s markings.
But what about the infamous scene with the rocker running around the hotel with just his underwear? Baker had to sit in the chair even longer so that they could apply those tattoos over the two layers of makeup.
If you watched the movie, then you would be none the wiser that he had to go through all of that to look the way he did.
When it comes to the film, it was too sterilized for me. It felt like a Lifetime movie with nudity and cursing. That and there was too much narration. Let the story tell itself. Having said all of that, it is worth the watch whether you are a fan of Crüe or not.
It has been a year of movies about music from A Star is Born to Bohemian cRapsody to Rocketman, but the one that truly captures the feeling of Rock’n’Roll is coming to Netflix on March 22nd. The Dirt will not be the Same Ol’ Situation as Mötley Crüe tells their bitchin’ story. It is exactly what Dr. Feelgood ordered because they were/are the bad boys of Rock.
From Vince Neil’s deadly car accident to losing his daughter from cancer to Tommy Lee’s marriages to Heather Locklear and Pamela Anderson to Nikki Sixx’s overdoses to all the girls, girls, girls they loved to their Rock star antics. It is a lot to put into one movie, but they are going to do it. We won’t have time to be smokin’ in the boys room when it comes out because it will be too fast for love. So we will be watching it in a continuous loop like a merry go round.
Since it is still a month away, can someone kickstart my heart on March 22nd! Especially since there will be 4 new songs plus 14 classic ones featured in the feature.
BTW I am sorry but Douglas Booth, Iwan Rheon, Colson Baker, Daniel Webber are too pretty to play Crüe.
Back in 2014, Mötley Crüe signed a document saying they would never ever tour again after their then-upcoming final tour. In fact, when the tour ended on December 31, 2015, they officially broke up. Or so we thought…
Today, lead singer Vince Neil tweeted, “Exciting news! I’ll be going back in recording studio in a few weeks with the boys to record 4 brand new Motley Crue tracks! Rock On!!” These songs will be their first ones since 2015’s All Bad Things.
I guess all good things are going on for Neil, Tommy Lee, Nikki Sixx and Mick Mars since they are back together again. Or they need the money. What? You thought about it too. Whatever the reason, Dr. Feelgood has a whole new meaning today because hearing they are releasing new songs is making me feel good. Where is my Tommy Lee drum solo for that bad joke?
What will be very interesting is if they decide to hit the road again. If they do, I wonder what will happen to that contract they signed four years ago?
Talking about time, if those four tracks turn into an album, then it will be their first one in 10 years.
How do feel about Crüe getting back together again?
UPDATE: Vince Neil explained how they are working on new tunes together. He wrote, “For those of you who don’t understand, yes ‘the boys’ means Motley and we signed a contract not to tour anymore. We never broke up or said we would never make music again. Hope this clears it up.”
