Tommy Lee's Tree Life  5/10/05

Rocker Tommy Lee took a horticulture course at Nebraska University for the filming of his upcoming reality TV show because he's sure he was a tree in a former life.

The Motley Crue drummer admits he didn't hesitate to sign up for the odd course when he decided to give further education a try on Tommy Lee Goes to College.

He says, "There's this weird thing about me. I think I was a tree or something in a past life. I've always been attracted to nature, to trees.

"After owning several homes and landscaping them and going to the nurseries and picking stuff out, I know that I love trees and plants and flowers."
