Who's Cryin' Like a Bitch?

Not sure actually. Here's the story.





During a tour in 2009 there was a disagreement between Godsmack singer Sully Erna and Motley Crue bassist turned radio show host Nikki Sixx. This disagrement then lead to the Godsmack song "Cryin' Like a Bitch." Flash forward five years and Godsmack is about to have a new album to promote and as bands do they make their rounds with the press and that includes radio. With Nikki now hosting a radio show someone from the Godsmack camp reached out and tried to book a spot on the show. That's when Nikki said this:
"Over my dead f***ing body!"
Nikki then sends out this tweet:
"So @godsmack begged to be on @Sixxsense to promote their shit new album.Good luck touring phonebooths.Whos crying like a bitch now?"
Ok funny line aside one thing to remember is Nikki might actually be crying like a bitch. You see in the music world bands will have what's called a publicist or a record company will have a rep to book the band's interviews, appearances, photo shoots and whatever else that will get the band press and heard by more people. There is a very good chance that said publicist had or has no clue about some silly little beef between Nikki Sixx and Motley Crue. So I'd argue that Godsmack the band had nothing to do with the attempted booking of the Nikki Sixx show.

Over my dead [expletive] body,’” begins Sixx. “And they said, ‘Well, you know, they wanna be on the show because their record’s coming out.’ And I go, ‘Did you forget the fact that they wrote a song about me called ‘Cryin’ Like a Bitch’ and that there’s probably 15 festivals that Motley Crue is headlining and that we said if Godsmack’s on ‘em, we’re not doing them?”
