Kid Rock Cited After VMA Scuffle With Lee

[Damien J.]

Kid Rock was cited for misdemeanor battery after a tussle with Tommy Lee in the audience at last night's (Sept. 9) MTV Video Music Awards, police said. Both Lee and Kid Rock are ex-husbands of Pamela Anderson, who was a presenter at the show.

The artist received the citation after police reported to the Palms Hotel and Casino shortly after 10 p.m. Sunday and interviewed people at the scene, Officer Bill Cassell said. Kid Rock was not taken into custody.

MTV VJ Sway said during the post-show that he saw Kid Rock walk up to the Motley Crue drummer, who was sitting next to Sean "Diddy" Combs, and "deck him."

Another eyewitness, rap producer Rich Nice, said although Kid Rock threw the only blows that landed -- a backhand slap and a punch -- Lee was the instigator.

"It looked like Tommy Lee initiated it because Kid Rock was ignoring him," said Nice, who was two tables away. "And Tommy Lee kind of antagonized him. And then when Tommy Lee stood up, it looked a little weird, like 'Yo, what?'"

"When Tommy stands up is when Kid hit him the first time with a backhand," Nice continued. "And then Tommy Lee looked like he was trying to get at him to aggressively retaliate and then Kid Rock hits Tommy Lee again -- bong. And then security grabs Tommy Lee in a headlock and pulls him off."

Security guards let Kid Rock stay for the rest of the show while Lee was dragged out.

Cassell said Kid Rock could face up to six months in jail, but that it would be uncommon for someone facing similar charges to receive such a lengthy sentence.
