Nikki Sixx has taken to social media to condemn the release of writer/director David Lucarelli’s unauthorized Mötley Crüe play, “The Crüe: Underneath The Dirt Lies The Truth.” That show is currently set to debut at the Hollywood Fringe Festival in Los Angeles, CA on June 4.

Sixx said the following on Instagram:

“Fans of Mötley Crüe have asked about a new play by David Zucarelli’s [sic] called ‘The Crüe: Underneath The Dirt Lies The Truth.’

I was disappointed to see an advertisement using my image and our band’s trademark The Crüe to promote this play.

The advertising is misleading because it suggests that I and the other members of the band are somehow involved with the play.

We have never been approached about this play. And Mötley Crüe has no connection or affiliation with this play whatsoever.”
