Read our privacy policy Mötley Crüe’s drummer, Tommy Lee, took to his Instagram feed on Thursday to post a full-frontal nude — which goes against the social media platform’s community standards. It seems as if he knew that what he was doing — exposing himself without the consent of viewers — was wrong as he captioned the NSFW photo with a single word: “Ooooopppsss.” At least four hours later, the publicly posted d**k pic of the 59-year-old heavy metal rocker remained on his Instagram feed. Instagram says it allows photos of women breastfeeding to remain published on the app — but those community guidelines were only updated after it repeatedly removed photos of women nursing their children for being “inappropriate”. All the interest may have been a PR ploy, as Lee has now posted a video of a concert B-roll on his Instagram feed Lee isn’t the first white male celebrity to get away with posting nude on the social media app.
