Whether you know him as the drummer for Mötley Crüe or just Pam Anderson's ex-husband, Tommy Lee has been part of the entertainment industry for literal decades. Although his band had far more prominence at the time of its inception in the 80's, he is still regarded as a musical icon. And with that being the case, what is Tommy Lee's net worth?
The musician has faced legal trouble, been married four times, and has two children with his ex Pam. And, despite it all, he still reportedly maintains a sizable net worth that says a lot about the career that, for him, began in the late 70's and lasted for most of his life. He even attempted to go solo at one point, proving that he has never really stopped making music in some capacity.
