Speculation had been rife that the <strong>M\u00f6tley Cr\u00fce<\/strong> lead singer will announce his retirement from music, at age 58, with immediate effect. There is now confirmation. <strong>There will be no true Crue comeback, at least not with Vince rocking the microphone.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>&#8220;Being a singer isn&#8217;t fun anymore.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\u201cAs we get older, there are phases of life that we enter into, and being a singer-musician just isn&#8217;t fun anymore,\u201d confessed Neil to a source who remained anonymous. Other reports hinted that he may branch out into other creative fields he is better at (and more interested in), though they didn&#8217;t provide any details. One source said there is a cooking show lined up and some commercials that Sally Struthers initially got offered but turned down. Believe it or not, word is that in 2020 Vince will be appearing in his own new reality show on VH1 called <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/vince-neils-new-reality-series-too-fat-for-love\/\">&#8220;Too Fat For Love.&#8221;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Vince Neil of Motley Crue Performing with Steel Panther at GVR\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7utPhNh5RHA?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><figcaption>Vince passes the torch to Michael Starr of STEEL PANTHER&#8230; the rumors are true!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The rotund vocalist has been going through a series of major life setbacks on his way to attempting a gutsy comeback with his old band, including being committed to a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/vince-neil-turns-himself-in-for-fat-treatment\/\">Fat Farm<\/a>,&#8221; getting replaced by the singer of<a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/motley-crue-hire-michael-starr-to-replace-vince-neil\/\"> <strong>STEEL PANTHER<\/strong><\/a> and then<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/vince-neil-injured-at-fat-farm-falls-while-escaping\/\"> falling and getting hurt <\/a><\/strong>when he attempted to escape the Benmor medical facility in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Exclusive: VINCE NEIL \u2013 Turns Himself In For Fat Treatment <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/E8eJd1gEZD\">https:\/\/t.co\/E8eJd1gEZD<\/a> &#x1f631;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MotleyCrue?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MotleyCrue<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheMetalDen?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@TheMetalDen<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BLABBERMOUTHNET?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@BLABBERMOUTHNET<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MetalNtNRadio?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MetalNtNRadio<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EndOfCentury?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@EndOfCentury<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TMZ?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@TMZ<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ABC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ABC<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NBCNews?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NBCNews<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BBCNews?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@BBCNews<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/metaledge?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@metaledge<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/metalhammer_de?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@metalhammer_de<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SPIN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SPIN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RollingStone?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RollingStone<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Y7q0ZvOJMg\">pic.twitter.com\/Y7q0ZvOJMg<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The Metal Den (@TheMetalDen) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheMetalDen\/status\/1196813966137339905?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 19, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<\/center><center>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#ThankYouVince<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">For a little while on Saturday evening, #ThankYouVince was a trending hashtag on Twitter.
