Early Years
On December 11, 1958, in San Jose, California, Nikki Sixx was born Frank Carlton Serafino Feranna, Jr. Nikki’s father abandoned the family when he was a child. Deana Richards, his mother, reared him until she abandoned him. Sixx was reared by his grandparents after that. He was forced to live with his mother in Seattle after getting into some difficulties as a teenager, including being expelled from school for selling narcotics. Nikki didn’t spend much time with his mother, but it was enough for him to learn to play the guitar. With the proceeds from the sale of a stolen guitar, he purchased his first bass guitar.
Sixx went to Los Angeles when he was 17 years old. He worked at a liquor store and sold vacuum cleaners over the phone, among other things. Sixx was able to audition for bands while working at these jobs. After responding to an ad in the local newspaper, he joined the band Sister. Sixx was sacked from the band shortly after they produced a demo. He legally changed his name to Nikki Sixx in the late 1970s.
Career
Mötley Crüe was formed in 1981 by Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee. Mick Mars, a guitarist, was later added. Lee believed Vince Neil had joined Mötley Crüe. Both of them attended the same high school. In 1983, Sixx and Mötley Crüe recorded “Shout at the Devil.” The song “Shout at the Devil” was a huge success. In the 1980s, Mötley Crüe released three additional albums: “Theatre of Pain” in 1985, “Girls, Girls, Girls” in 1987, and “Dr. Feelgood” in 1989. Mötley Crüe’s most successful album is Dr. Feelgood. It spent 114 weeks on the album charts.
Personal Life
Sixx was addicted to heroin throughout his tenure with Mötley Crüe. He admitted to overdosing “about a half-dozen times.” Sixx died of a heroin overdose on December 23, 1987. He was apparently proclaimed clinically dead for two minutes before being resuscitated with two syringes of adrenaline by a paramedic.
In 1989, Sixx married Playboy Playmate Brandi Brandt. Gunner, Storm, and Decker, their three children, were born in 1991, 1994, and 1995, respectively. In late 1996, Sixx and Brandt divorced.
Sixx married Playboy Playmate and actress Donna D’Errico just one month after he and Brandt split. Frankie-Jean, their only child, was born in 2001. They divorced in the summer of 2007 after a series of separations and reconciliations.
In March of 2014, Sixx married Courtney Bingham. Ruby, their daughter, was born in 2019.
Real Estate
Sixx and his wife paid $4.125 million for a mansion in the Los Angeles suburb of Westlake Village in July 2014. The single-story, 10,300-square-foot home is located on 1.2 acres within North Ranch Country Estates, an exclusive gated country club. The property features high ceilings, huge main rooms, a wet bar in the family room, and extensive loggias, making it ideal for entertaining.

There are six bedrooms and eight bathrooms in all. He advertised this home for $5.699 million in October 2020. In September 2021, he sold the house for $5.18 million.
