Call it the battle of the boobs. Or for the boobs. Think about it. We’re talking about Pamela Anderson and her giant breasts here!
The MTV Video Music Awards prides itself on its unscripted moments, and Sunday’s show was no exception: Kid Rock punched Tommy Lee.
During the ceremony.
“Tommy Lee was sitting by Diddy. [Kid Rock] just walked up and decked him,” said MTV veejay Sway, who witnessed the event.
It was unclear how the fight started, and there was no immediate word on whether the copes got involved. According to an onlooker in the audience, “They had each other at the necks, they were practically strangling each other.”
Another eyewitness saw Tommy Lee escorted out, “screaming the f-word over and over again.” He was thrown out in front of thousands of fans.
While the fight was not televised, it was certainly a topic of conversation during the ceremony.
As Jamie Foxx came out to present the Best New Artist award with Jennifer Garner, he joked, “Someone needs to stop all of this white-on-white crime. Tommy Lee and Kid Rock fighting like black folks, it’s hilarious.”
As the crowd hooted, Jamie Foxx, added, “Who won? I was in the bathroom.” And he noted, in jest, “Pamela Anderson has got a hard choice to make.”
Anderson, of course, has been married to both rockers, who have feuded in the past. While she most recently divorced Kid Rock – in February – she still maintains a friendship with Lee, with whom she has a sex tape and two sons.
Later in the telecast, Diddy also referenced the spat between the white trash rockers before introducing the final performance:
“I was supposed to be doing this with Kid Rock, but you know, we got to stop the violence,” he joked. “It’s not just hip-hop artists that fight!”
Britney Spears had no comment. But she was no doubt happy that something took the attention off of her god awful performance.
