The cause of Marilyn Monroe's death, who Jack the Ripper was, who built Stonehenge or why the singer Tommy Lee, drummer of the band Mötley Crue and ex of Pamela Anderson, is still alive after decades experiencing endless sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. We don't ask ourselves this, but he himself questions his own existence after so many excesses, because he can boast of being able to continue telling out loud how he has survived as one of the craziest and most outdated musicians in the history of rock. .
What's more, as he himself has recently confessed, he is even healthier than one could imagine; And years ago he drank up to more than seven liters of vodka a day. What is said soon.
This was revealed to journalist Bill Maher on his podcast, Club Random, in a talk that has left no one indifferent and makes it clear to what extent the rocker was out of date in his younger days.
As Lee tells it, the vodka was drunk as is, without any mixtures that would cloud its flavor. If one is thinking that it is too much for one man, it is; and Maher himself could not believe what he was hearing. What's more, the journalist even converted to other units of measurement (Tommy Lee expressed it in gallons - in the United States a gallon is equivalent to 3.785 liters) to make sure he was listening correctly. And yes, he was.
Luckily for the musician, he himself realized that it was too much, even for then. The father of Pamela Anderson's two children admits that he was on a "suicide mission" at that time: "Your liver is destroyed at that point, it barely works," he explains.
One might wonder, if your liver was like this at that time - decades ago - what is it like right now? That's the most surprising thing: according to the musician, his body could be described as a miracle of nature. The doctors have done a thousand check-ups on him, and he is healthy as an apple.
How has he achieved it? Nobody knows. Now, it's great that he managed to recover, because his excesses certainly pointed to a fatal destiny. The musician and his bandmates got into as much trouble with the law as one can imagine; and with his then wife, Pamela Anderson, he became half of one of the most iconic couples of the 90s precisely because of his excesses.
A man reported for abuse by his ex-wife, who collected firearms like someone who got tattoos, who had and consumed drugs and alcohol in industrial quantities, participated in orgies with his bandmates and visited various American prisons. He is still alive, and he celebrates it, because he has had the opportunity to experience what many long for - and what few survive -, a life in the purest rock'n'roll style.
