News of musician Tommy Lee’s death spread quickly causing concern among fans across the world, with the talk of the band reuniting in 2020 gaining momentum in recent weeks.
Rumors of the musician’s alleged demise gained traction on Saturday after a ‘R.I.P. Tommy Lee’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the American musician’s passing:
“At about 11 a.m. ET on Saturday (November 16, 2019), our beloved musician Tommy Lee passed away. Tommy Lee was born on October 3, 1962 in Athens. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 57-year-old musician was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the legendary drummer’s death…
As the story goes, Vince and Tommy were reportedly going to smooth things out with one another and put Mötley Crüe back together one more time.
Last month, Radar Online reported that MÖTLEY CRÜE had been offered $150 million by Live Nation to roll their old bones down the road to reunite for a tour but only if singer Vince Neil lost a minimum 40 pounds from his gut… and got treatment. The report also claimed that Mr. Neil and drummer Tommy Lee were locked in a ‘war of words’ as they allegedly bickered over who should go to rehab first.
One week later, VINCE took to Twitter to squash the report, according to Blabbermouth: “insisting that the rumors were false and claiming that he hadn’t spoken to any of his bandmates since the March premiere of the film adaptation of their 2001 autobiography “The Dirt”.”
“There is no tension between me and Tommy,” he wrote. “Don’t believe anything from these so-called gossip sites.”
