At one point,<a href=\"https:\/\/metalwani.com\/2022\/11\/industry-source-says-motley-crues-nikki-sixx-made-mick-mars-cry-before-quitting-the-band.html\"> during a confrontation at the end of last year, Mick Mars began to cry <\/a>when he attempted to stop Sixx and Lee from firing <strong>Vince Neil<\/strong> again, setting off a big rumor about the glam legends seriously considering replacing the drunken and overweight Neil with <strong>Scott Stapp<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">This was the straw that broke the camel&#8217;s back, according to an industry source. &#8220;The fact that Mick went against Nikki&#8217;s authority really set off fireworks and pretty much ended the original lineup right then and there.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Nikki lost all respect for Mick when this happened and really took things to a dark place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>&#8220;Just Go Kill Yourself!&#8221;<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">&#8211; Nikki Sixx<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mickexpose-1.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"202\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mickexpose-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-102874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mickexpose-1.webp 360w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mickexpose-1-300x168.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">These four words cut into Mick&#8217;s elderly flesh like a hot knife cuts through butter, according to the <strong>industry source<\/strong>, who has viewed the leaked Mars court document, where the brutal statement purportedly was pulled from. It was at this point that, after being loyal for over four decades, it was easy to see that a totally hostile and out of control Nikki Sixx who regularly spewed such ugly and hateful words directed at Mars had finally gone too far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Mars next made the move that everyone should have seen coming from a mile away and he filed a lawsuit for being &#8220;ripped off&#8221; on the comeback tour&#8217;s massive profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">All that being said, Sixx and the band&#8217;s shrewd manager <strong>Allen Kovac <\/strong>made a request to have the court trial moved to &#8216;private arbitration&#8217; so that all of the &#8220;dirt&#8221; from the Mars lawsuit does not get released to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CMS | AI Is Taking Over The Music World FAST!!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sd1BCpfEgo4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">So, what happened next? Was Neil fired? No. Sixx was forced to abort the mission, ousted Mars instead and lied to the fans about why he was really leaving the band, and instead propped the rotund singer up nicknamed &#8216;Vince Meal&#8221; so he can lip sync to pre-recorded vocals piped through the PA, not to mention the story that the Crue alternately brought Stapp into the studio as a &#8220;ghost vocalist&#8221; by way of creating an AI version of Vince Neil&#8217;s voice by using Stapp&#8217;s voice to power Neil&#8217;s vocal samples pulled off early Crue albums, <em>when Neil could really sing<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Are you confused yet? Don&#8217;t worry. Everyone is confused at this point!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-102836\" style=\"width:426px;height:426px\" width=\"426\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1.jpg 454w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mickpissed-1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Mars adds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"> &#8220;You know how you can be in a crowd of people and still feel alone? That&#8217;s how I felt that whole tour. I felt used, sad, and inferior.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The guitarist continues, &#8220;When we played the last show [in Las Vegas in September 2022], I felt relieved. A lot of the pressure was gone. But I was very emotionally wounded. They weren&#8217;t just shallow wounds.
