Tommy Lee Rails Against Celebrities in Facebook Post [News]

Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee has issued a long post about the concept of celebrity on his Facebook page. The musician claims that the term celebrity is the "most misused word ever."

"I'm a celebrity ... really?" asks Tommy. "I think that means being famous, having pi**ed on the world's fire hydrant, leaving your mark for years to come and making a dent in the globe the size of the hole in the ozone?

"The world's view of a celeb today is the most f--ked up, watered down bullshit I've ever seen."

He continued: "I've been in this game for many years now and the abundance of lame TV shows really sets a gruesome standard. Stupid shows about finding love on national TV? Partying in Jersey? Trapped on some island? Celebrity REHAB? The B-C crew that weren't celebs in the first place!! ... Celebrity apprentice? If you are a celeb, why are you looking for an internship?

"People wonder 'where the hell did the rock star go?' The Bowies, Princes, Mick Jaggers, they're STILL here, people! There's nobody to blame but our own silly ass! We watch the shit like fans at an Indianapolis 500 race where folks only go just to wait for a fiery crash and burn!

"OK, I admit I do it, too ... but for the love of Jesus, I know it's not right. Do you? Really? And these people who have their few episodes of airtime go on to host parties, sell perfumes, wonder why they're not bigger than they are? They wonder why their 'stars' don't continue to 'rise.' WOW!

"Do you guys remember the days of talent? Something God gave you, or YOU crafted it into something special that people wanted to go see again and again! And if you were lucky and you made it, you found a way to showcase what you could do? And get paid? Getting paid for your God-given talent? that rules. I am lucky...

"Celebrity!... The most misused word EVER! Getting beaten up more every day!...

"The last thing these home wreckers need is more attention! They are nothing but fame whores and giving them a show is only rewarding them for their disgusting behavior. They should be forgotten! What were their names again? All I'll remember is that one of them looked like Marilyn Manson."

What's your view on the term "celebrity?" Do you agree with Tommy? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
