Tommy Lee has slammed artists who are continuing to promote their music during Los Angeles wlildfires.
The Mötley Crüe musician took to Instagram to speak out about musicians who are still promoting tours and new music, while Los Angeles suffers devastating wildfires.
"Makes me f**king sick to see most people just (carrying) on posting on lame ass social media!" the 62-year-old wrote.
"Guys right now nobody gives a flying f**k when your record drops or the next concert is when so many people are in the middle of one of the biggest disasters of all time!"
He continued, "I get that some comic relief is always need but Jesus Christ leave it all alone and maybe just stop and see who needs help if you can."
Many artists have postponed releases or announcements. Beyonce had planned on making an announcement on 14 January, but has put back sharing any news. The Weeknd postponed the release of his new album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, and cancelled his Rose Bowl performance scheduled for 25 January, citing he was doing it "out of respect and concern for the people of Los Angeles County."
Other Hollywood events including the Oscar nominations and the Critics Choice Awards have also been postponed.
