Motley Crue lead singer Vince Neil got married to Lia Gerardini on Sunday (January 9) at the Four Seasons hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Rapper-turned-minister MC Hammer officiated at the ceremony, while Neil's personal manager, Burt Stein, acted as a substitute best man. Neil's friend Randy Kubota, his original best man, was hospitalized with severe injuries on Friday (January 7). Kubota was reportedly found in a ditch after being pushed from a car on his way home from a party at Neil's home, according to sources at the ceremony.
Guests at the wedding included Crue bassist Nikki Sixx, Crue drummer Tommy Lee, former NBA star Dennis Rodman, Playboy playmate Brande Roderick, Miami Dolphins quarterback Jay Fiedler, and many others.
Meanwhile, Nikki Sixx has gone online to deny continued rumors that guitarist Mick Mars' health problems will prevent him from performing on the band's upcoming reunion tour. Sixx wrote on the Crue's website, "(Mars) was the guy whose bone disease had tore him physically down and wore out his hip. He was the one who said 'I'm gonna get this f--king hip replaced, so you guys better be ready 'cause I wanna go kick ass.' We are, he has and the rest, as they say, is history."
The original lineup of Motley Crue begins the Red, White And Crue...Better Live Than Dead trek, their first tour together in six years, on February 14 in Puerto Rico. An anthology also named Red, White And Crue, featuring three new songs, arrives in stores on February 1.
