False Facts About Motley Crue You Always Thought Were True

Posted by Artie Phelan on Sunday, June 2, 2024

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee were one of the most famous couples of their time. As E! Online tells us, their whirlwind romance, the tabloid-friendly lovey-dovey period and, uh, the even more tabloid-friendly falling-out hit every button the celebrity-loving public had ... including some of the more sordid buttons, thanks to their famous sex tape. Still, both Anderson and Lee had other partners before meeting each other, and it just so happens that one of Anderson's ex-partners hit a lot closer to home than Lee probably would have wanted.

According to Vince Neil's autobiography Tattoos & Tequila, the singer dated Anderson long before Lee even met her, and is smug enough about the fact to write about it in italics. They met during Anderson's tenure as the Tool Time Girl in Home Improvement, and started dating when she featured in Neil's music video. Though they were never a serious item — Neil claims she was just one of the girls from that video he dated — the two apparently remained friendly enough that Neil says Anderson introduced him to Hugh Hefner and, by proxy, a string of Playmates he later courted. It's impossible for an outsider to know how this little relationship conundrum affected Motley Crue's band chemistry, but seeing as Neil happily gloated about his conquest in a book, it's not exactly impossible to imagine him rubbing the fact in Lee's face during heated discussions.
