Tommy Lee, fondly called ‘T-bone’ for his tall and athletic physique, became famous as the drummer of the heavy metal band, ‘Mötley Crüe.’ Although he is considered one of the most talented heavy metal artists today, much of his career has been dwarfed by his bizarre behind-the-scenes behavior and his tumultuous personal life, which includes a scandalous tape that went viral on the internet. Apart from ‘Mötley Crüe,’ he also founded the rap-metal band, ‘Methods of Mayhem,’ and continues to pursue other solo projects. When Lee was a young boy, he was heavily influenced by the works of bands like ‘Deep Purple,’ ‘Led Zeppelin,’ ‘Judas Priest,’ ‘Kiss,’ and ‘Queen.’ Just as his bands began to gain momentum in the world of music, he used several on-stage and off-stage gimmicks to promote his works, which to his hard luck, often backfired. He mooned his fans and exhibited licentious behavior during his shows that left his fans disappointed. Apart from his music career, he had a brief stint in the television industry and has appeared in ‘Tosh.0.’ and ‘Californication.’ He is also an ardent animal rights activist.
