Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx took part in a fan Q&A on X over the weekend which led to at least one unsavory exchange about the band’s vocalist Vince Neil. You can see how that conversation unfolded below:
Opinions on Neil‘s ability to to sing have long been a point of criticism from fans of the glam metal legends, as have concerns over Neil‘s weight. Last fall, Neil revealed that he suffered a stroke during the night of Christmas day back in 2024. He said that since then, he undertook a healthy regiment of physical therapy exercises and training to make it back to the stage.
What an embarrassing thing to post to me about my singer who’s been with me for 45 years. No matter what you think he’s my brother and you can go suck a dick.
