Facts
At the end of the Limp Bizkit video for "Nookie"
the footage of Fred Durst being arrested is real. Limp Bizkit
didn't have a permit to shoot the video so Fred got arrested.
Fred is the Vice President of interscope records.
Before Fred was the singer in Limp Bizkit, he
worked as a Tattoo Artists at his own shop.
Guitarist Wes Borland was kicked out of Limp
Bizkit but later asked to re-join.
Fred says he has never read a book. Not even
at school. He quotes, "If I had to do a book report I would
just do it over The Outsiders because I had seen the movie."
Bassist Sam Rivers and Drummer John Otto are
cousins.
Fred has directed some of the Limp Bizkit videos
including Nookie, Re-Arranged, N 2 Gether Now, Break Stuff and
even KoRns video Falling Away From Me.
Wes has a tattoo of his wife's name on his back.
Fred has a English Bulldog named Bizkit that
he takes on tour with him.
Limp Bizkit's DJ, DJ Lethal is from the early
90's hip-hop group House of Pain.
Wes makes all of his costumes himself and also
does all his make-up himself.
Limp Bizkit was founded by Korn when John Davis
from Korn met them on tour. After Korn played, Fred invited them
back to his house to do John's tattoos. While they were tattooing
him, Limp Bizkit put on one of their demo tapes to see what Korn
thought of them. Korn loved them and they took Limp Bizkit to
Interscope/Flip records and signed them up to their label that
day.
"Did Fred Durst date Carmen Electra?"
Yeah, Fred did date Carmen Electra for some time during the Limptropolis
Tour. After they broke it off, Denis Rodman made some comments
about Fred to Carmen while they were in an argument saying, "Why
don't you just go fuck Fred!". Even though it is to be believed
that Fred never 'humped her' in the first place. I know I would.
:)
"Did Limp pay off a radio station to play
their first single Counterfeit?"
Yup, this is true also. On an MTV special about the band, Fred
stated that the band in fact did pay off a radio station in Colorado
to play their first single Counterfeit. I believe it was $5000
for 5 spins for 5 weeks on the station. Hey it worked!
