HOLLYWOOD - Security at the MTV Video Music Awards prevented rocker Tommy Lee from putting Kid Rock in the hospital, according to the Motley Crue drummer.
Lee reveals he was told to stay seated or risk burly bouncers breaking his arms as a scuffle broke out during Alicia Keys' performance in Las Vegas on Sunday night.
Hours after the fracas, Lee told TV show The Insider that he was minding his own business when Kid Rock punched him on the cheek.
He said, "I was trying to be the bigger man, but he was acting childish."
After the punch, the rocker admits he "was ready to go in the alley and kick his ass," adding, "I was about to put Kid in the emergency room when security grabbed me.
"They said, 'If you move, we will break your arms.'"
Lee is still trying to figure out why his nemesis went after him, but offered, "This is what people do when they have sh**ty albums and their careers are going down the drain."
Kid Rock was cited for misdemeanor battery for throwing a punch at Lee. He is expected to appear in court in three to five weeks to enter a plea.
He faces a $500 fine and six months in jail.
