NIKKI SIXX Guests On FOX NEWS' 'On The Record'; Behind-The-Scenes Video Available

September 7, 2007

Greta Van Susteren of Fox News' "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren" has uploaded behind-the-scenes video footage of MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx's appearance on the show. Watch the two clips below.

Commented Greta Van Susteren: "As you know, we taped an interview with MÖTLEY CRÜE's Nikki Sixx (it will air tonight or Monday.) One of my colleagues — Elizabeth Prann — picked up my handycam and shot some behind-the-scenes video as we were setting up and doing the interview. The audio is not great on the first clip — but the point of posting this clip is to give you a behind-the-scenes look (you can watch our interview tonight or Monday for the content of what Nikki has to say….and he has LOTS to say!)

"I particularly liked the second clip posted since I never get to see this — it is behind-the-scenes video inside our control room during the interview. Obviously I am on the set during the interview…so even I get to see something new!"

Sixx was a featured speaker at the 18th annual National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month luncheon on Thursday, September 6 on Capitol Hill. Sixx is the first rock musician ever invited to share his story of surviving addiction at such an event. Sixx was invited by the National Association of Alcoholism & Drug Abuse Counselors (NAADAC) and will speak alongside Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Administrator Terry Cline and Center for Substance Abuse Treatment Director H. Westley Clark M.D.

Sixx will publish "The Heroin Diaries" on September 18. The book is taken from actual journals Sixx kept in the late '80s while in the grip of a near-fatal heroin addiction.

A soundtrack album, which Sixx recorded under the name SIXX: A.M., came out last month. It debuted on the Billboard album chart this week at No. 63, selling 11,000 copies.

Twenty-five percent of Sixx's royalties from the book will go to Running Wild In The Night, a charity he established in conjunction with Covenant House to rescue homeless and runaway youth from the streets.

Sixx will go on a publicity tour to sign copies of the book, beginning on September 18 at Borders in the Westwood district of Los Angeles.
