Tommy Lee discusses his incredible career with Mötley Crüe
Frank Skinner has hit out at Motley Crue’s Tommy Lee, 60, after the latter urged women to lift their tops up during a gig.
The comedian questioned whether he was a part of the so-called “woke” brigade after slamming the drummer’s actions, which happened in front of the funny man’s 11-year-old son.
In a rant about the moment in question, Frank urged Tommy to “grow up”.
The 66-year-old said: “I was at a Motley Crüe concert the other day. I took my son [Buzz] who’s 11.
“Tommy Lee, the drummer, said: ‘I haven’t seen any t*****s tonight’ and took his ‘t***y cam’ out into the audience.

“He got women to lift up their tops,” he continued to The Telegraph.
Frank said the move left his son “burning with embarrassment” and admitted: “I couldn’t stomach it.
“I wanted to say, ‘F***ing grow up!’ Maybe I’ve bought into woke things.”
Tommy, once married to Pamela Anderson, has said capturing women’s breasts on the big screen is his favourite part of the shows.
The drummer and his band introduced the wild segment to their gigs over 20 years ago.
Tommy has defended his motives in the past, most recently last year when a concert goer made a complaint.
In 2022, Juan Alvarez ranted about people getting naked at one of their gigs while children were present.
The drummer sassily replied on Twitter: “Complaining about seeing t**s at a Mötley Crüe concert is like complaining about seeing cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory.”
After seeing more complaints, Tommy added: “The world is too soft! Been doing this s**t for years Juan! Mötley Crüe concerts aren’t PG and never have been!!!! Grow the f**k up!”
Last year, Frank discussed “cancel culture” and whether he believed free speech had been prohibited in the comedy world.

Despite the term being used more than ever, the comedian believes it’s nothing new.
“I don’t think there’s ever been a time when you could just say anything,” he told The Guardian.
“Everyone’s got their own standards and restraints. But I think it’s been good for me to keep questioning what I say. It’s made me think more.”
His comments came after he admitted to feeling “deeply ashamed” for mocking black footballer Jason Lee while hosting Fantasy Football League with David Baddiel in the 1990s.
The pair likened the footballer’s dreadlocked hair to a pineapple during a sketch that involved David doing blackface.
Frank said he looked back on the so-called joke with shame and now understands it was “bullying”.
David apologised for the sketch on Twitter back in 2020 while Frank said a “big public apology” didn’t sit well with him.
He added to the publication: “They look a bit like union card apologies: ‘I just need to keep working; I’ll apologise for anything, just let me keep working.’ I didn’t want to be part of that.”
