Vince Neil (Motley Crue) Drops F-Bomb On Live New Years Eve Show (Leno)

LOS ANGELES -- NBC hasn't received any calls about the F-word that Motley Crue rocker Vince Neil dropped during the live New Year's Eve broadcast of "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno."

"Happy f---ing New Year, Tommy!" Neil said to bandmate Tommy Lee shortly after midnight Friday.

The remark was carried to viewers on the East Coast but was edited out before it was broadcast in the West, according to the entertainment trade paper Variety, which reported the incident on its Web site Monday night.

Leno normally tapes his show for broadcast later in the evening but does a live version for New Year's Eve. He had never a problem with profanities before, although the word has slipped out from time to time on other programs.

"The network has not received any calls regarding the incident," an NBC official, who asked not be identified, said Monday.

1. Of course they haven't received any complaints, that word is officially

endorsed by the Vice President. It's not like he bared a female nipple or anything.

2. Total FCC fine: $0.00 when Vince Neil's relevancy is taken into account.

9. Total FCC fine would be $0 anyways...

The utterance was made after 10 PM local time. "Safe harbor" rules apply.

4. OMG, I saw that on VH1!

He looked good, even after the face lift. You really couldn't tell he had anything done. They should have left his hair alone. :eyes: That ruined it, IMO. He just looked odd to me. Kind of made him seem like a big sellout, even though I guess it's great that he's trying to get in shape.

5. Just the outside, though

Not much you can do, via VH1, about what's inside. English Curse is probably his first language.

6. next thing you know he'LL be smoking

and drinking Like a fish

[flvegan]

8. Then will come the fornicating! Can't anyone save

Vince Neillllllllllll???????????

Maybe being around Tommy Lee again will be a good influence on him.

7. Imagine that Motley Crue making a**es of themselves

Oh yeah thats right that is their act.

10. Apparently, the FCC will investigate...

The Federal Communications Commission has received complaints about the New Year's Eve "Tonight" show and is beginning a preliminary probe, a spokeswoman said Tuesday. But it's likely little will come of it.
