• In the scene when Nikki wakes up in his hotel room with a groupie next to him, he throws a burrito out of the bed. According to Vince Neil, after a night of sex with groupies, Mötley Crüe would drive to a restaurant to buy egg burritos and rub them on their crotches to cover the smell of sexual intercourse so their girlfriends would not suspect their activities.

• Roxy, Tommy Lee's first fiancé in the film, is based on a woman named Honey. In real life, Lee kicked Honey out of a limousine after she insulted his mother. When she started hitting him, Lee punched her in the face, knocking out several of her teeth.

• Although he has never outright denied it happened, Ozzy Osbourne has said he doesn't remember the gross-out contest with the band at the Holiday Inn.
