Nikki Sixx Breaks His Silence
Sixx broke his silence after Pearl Jam singer Eddie Vedder dissed Mötley Crüe, saying that the metal band caused him to feel vacuous.
In response to this, the bassist took to Twitter and said it made him laugh to learn that the “singer in Pearl Jam” hated his band. He wrote:
“Made me laugh today reading how much the singer in Pearl Jam hated @MotleyCrue. Now considering that they’re one of the most boring bands in history it’s kind of a compliment isn’t it?#TheStadiumTour #RocknRoll.”

However, the heated exchange divided both their fans, with most of the Twitter users saying Pearl Jam is way better than Mötley Crüe.
Sixx still did not hold back and answered some of the users’ tweets. At one point, he compared Vedder’s vocal styling to singing while having “marbles in [the] mouth.”
The bassist also replied to another fan, saying most concertgoers in Pearl Jam’s concerts only have boring looks throughout the show.

Vedder said:
“I’d end up being at shows that I wouldn’t have chosen to go to – bands that monopolized late-’80s MTV. The metal bands that – I’m trying to be nice – I despised. ‘Girls, Girls, Girls’ and Mötley Crüe: [expletive] you. I hated it. I hated how it made the fellas look. I hated how it made the women look. It felt so vacuous.”
He also made another jab at the band during his performance at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark on Sunday. Before Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Chad Smith performed a drum solo, Vedder reportedly said, “That drum kit – that silver, beautiful machine that he is the engine of – does not need to elevate or rotate to do its job. Let me just point that out.”
They also shared a video of the clip, saying that the band loves their “bored fans.”
