Tommy Lee, the drummer for Mötley Crue, has joined the subscription photo-sharing platform OnlyFans after he criticized Instagram for "policing" his body.
Lee's criticism came after he shared an explicit photo to Instagram in August, which was subsequently deleted due to the platform's content guidelines about nudity, according to Metro. Lee said that he shared the naked photo on Instagram after going on a "bender," Insider previously reported.
Footage of Lee, which NME reports was filmed at a Mötley Crue concert in Las Vegas on September 9, shows him referencing the incident and encouraging audience members to expose their genitals, before saying, "I showed you my shit. They took it down off the internet."
He continued, "What I've done is I have now gone over to a place where you can be free as fuck. And you can show anybody whatever the fuck you want, and they don't fucking take it down." Lee then exposed his behind where the words "OnlyFans" were written.

On September 10, Lee shared a photo of his butt to his 1.6 million Instagram followers, captioning it with a link to his OnlyFans page and writing, "Cum join me over there for fun that Instagram won't let us have here!"
In a video later posted to his Instagram story and to his Twitter account, Lee explained that he was moving to OnlyFans because he was "tired of Instagram policing our bodies.
