LAS VEGAS, Nevada–Not only rappers fight at award shows: Kid Rock and Tommy Lee tussled in the audience at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night.

MTV VJ Sway said on the post-show that he saw Kid Rock walk up to the Motley Crue drummer, who was sitting next to Diddy, and “deck him.” The incident was confirmed by Palms Hotel and Casino public relations representative Larry Fink.
Both Lee and Kid Rock are ex-husbands of Pamela Anderson, who was a presenter at the show and delivered her lines from atop a table in the audience. Although it was not clear whether the two rockers were fighting over Anderson, it was hard to imagine another scenario.
The incident provided a lot of mock rebukes from the hip-hoppers in attendance.
“They say it’s only rappers,” said Sway. “I told you rockers fight too.”
Diddy noted: “It’s not just the hip-hop artists that sometimes have a problem.”
Jamie Foxx took it still further: “Stop all this white-on-white violence.”
