David Lee Roth
The one-time lead singer and ring master for Van Halen—not to mention a number uno sex symbol with a wild blond mane of hair and self designed spandex outfits that barely cover his beautiful body—David Lee Roth was (in his own outrageous words) born “at an early age” to an eye surgeon father and a high school teacher mother.

The one-time lead singer and ring master for Van Halen—not to mention a number uno sex symbol with a wild blond mane of hair and self designed spandex outfits that barely cover his beautiful body—David Lee Roth was (in his own outrageous words) born “at an early age” to an eye surgeon father and a high school teacher mother. His family moved from Indiana to New England, where David spent many summers in New York City visiting his Uncle Manny Roth, the owner of the Cafe Wha? in Greenwich Village. When David was 10, the family moved to California where eventually Roth met Van Halen and friends at Pasadena City College. They formed a band—and the rest is history. Six platinum albums later, Roth took time off to record his first solo EP, Crazy From The Heat, and after a year of “maybe yes, maybe no,” he left Van Halen in 1985 (replaced by Sammy Hagar) and formed his own group with guitarist Steve Vai, bassist Billy Sheenan and drummer Greg Bissonette.
