For Vince Neil, It's Three Strikes and...Nothing

Not sure why I am even surprised. Mötley Crüe singer Vince Neil was just convicted of his third DUI offense. His first, in 1984, resulted in the death of one person and the permanent paralyzing of two others. Neil paid a stiff fine and served about a month in jail. His second one went largely unnoticed. His third, which took place last June, came just after Neil said he quit drinking. Uh huh.

Neil's sentence for his third offense consists of approximately two weeks in jail followed by two weeks of house arrest. Must be rough.

Motley Crue Sues For $20 Million Because People Think Tommy Lee Is Lame

Get this. Motley Crue is suing their manager for $20 million. The reason? Their manager's "insistence" that drummer Tommy Lee participate in lame TV shows like Tommy Lee Goes To College and Rock Star Supernova. Those shows, according to the suit, "diminished the public's interest in Lee and their overall perception of his musical talents." Hmmm. Has anyone heard Tommy Lee's solo albums? I think that destroyed any perception of his musical talent. The suit also claims that Lee was so busy with these other projects that Motley's 2007 plans for a new album had to be shelved. There are probably at least 15 people pissed about that!

UPDATE: The manager responds to the law suit.
