Later that year, Lee debuted on French TV network Canal+ during a 90-minute prime time special called, En Tatanes Á Manhattan!

In 2015 Lee launched a crowdfunding campaign on Inkshares for his tell-all book Don't You Know Who I Think I Am: Confessions of a First-Class Asshole.

In 2016, Lee engaged in a war of words with Entourage star Jeremy Piven, who was believed to have continually sent sexually explicit texts to Lee's ex girlfriend, model Kate Nardi, who Piven previously dated. At the height of the feud, Lee posted Piven's personal phone number on social media. Lee has apologized publicly to Piven over the incident, via social media.
