Mötley Crüe bass guitarist Nikki Sixx had a troubled childhood, almost died from a drug overdose, has 2 ex-wives who were Playboy Playmates and dated musician Lita Ford in the 80’s and Kat Von D more recently. Besides being rock’s wild child, he’s raised a lot of money for Covenant House, a charity foundation he’s passionate about that helps homeless and runaway kids. We talked about that and the classic Crüe song ‘Kickstart My Heart’ inspired by his near death experience.
