Lexxi Fox was the bassist of the popular heavy metal band comedic band – Steel Panther. While Lexxi Fox is just a stage name, the bassist’s real name is Travis Haley. Lexxi was part of the team and band for a long time before he announced his departure from the Steel Panther in July of 2021. Lexxi’s departure announcement was posted on the band’s website, and they even posted a tribute video on YouTube.
It was said that Lexxi started a side business ‘Sexy Lexxi’s Prettiest Pets’ to bring in money for botox when the pandemic and lockdown happened. And after Lexxi released his love for many pets spruced up and pretty, he chose to settle on his new passion, which was making dogs look pretty, which was why Lexxi left Steel Panther.
Why did Lexxi Fox leave Steel Panther?
In December of 2018, Lexxi sat out of Steel Panther’s tour after it was reported that he was admitted to sex rehab. But the real reason behind his absence or why he sat out of the tour was never disclosed to the public.
Satchel, a guitarist in Steel Panther, stated in a podcast interview in 2020 that none of the band members wanted Lexxi to leave. Many people didn’t want him to depart from the fan, including many of his and the Steel Panthers fans. But Satchel said that Lexxi decided to leave the band and that he had his things that he was dealing with, which brought him to the point of wanting to leave the band so he could focus on that. Satchel made it a fact that Lexxi left the band of his own will and was not fired.
After leaving Steel Panther in July 2021, Lexxi Fox started and formed a new band called Hollywood God N’ Monsters later that same year. In his new band, he goes by the name Travis Haley.
About Lexxi Fox aka Travis Haley
When Lexxi was in Steel Panther, he was often seen as a glamorous diva on stage with makeup and rocking a long blonde wig. It is so he is a mirror to himself and does not forget who he is and does not forget while playing.
Lexxi Fox, whose real name is Travis Haley, was born on 14th July 1984. He was born in California. It can be speculated that Lexxi is older than he looks, as he is seen donning make up most of the time. He is not married either. It is often a topic of discussion that because he remains unmarried and there haven’t been any signs of girlfriends, his sexuality is not questioned. Travis (Lexxi), who is almost in his 40s and is often seen wearing makeup, raises questions for some people. This is also another reason why his sexuality is often a topic of discussion and debate.
But Lexi doesn’t seem to care what other people think about him. He has also come out and tried to clear the air, saying he is straight regarding his sexuality. But still, many people assume that he is only saying that to hide his true self and sexuality.
As a musician who has been very successful and popular, he has had a sailing career that has earned him both a name and fame in the heavy metal rock genre of music. But with the Covid-19 Pandemic and lockdown, he was forced to look at other ways to make and earn money. He found a side hobby, where he makes pets and dogs look pretty.
