I find this a bit hard to believe. Is Kid Rock aware enough to feel humiliation?
Kid Rock’s fans are up in arms after
I’m sorry his what now?
Yup. Both of them are PISSED!
“There are dozens of us! Well, okay, tens of us. Oh all right, ten of us. If you round up.”
Who said roundup? Yee haw!
Crap not again . . Someone get the hose
Aren’t these idiots up in arms on a daily basis? Gun-toting hicks tend to be up in arms at a minimum, with very little inebriation required to shift into riot mode.
Yeah, that was a typo. Wasn’t supposed to be plural.
Fans (sic)
His fan(s).
Kid Rock is just Mike Lindell in a cowboy hat.
kid rock is just some guy whose real name is Robert Ritchie who grew up in a wealthy suburb of Detroit
I’ve never seen them in the same room together.
My ex wife’s mom was a kid rock megafan. She had kid rock tshirts in heavy rotation, had kid rock bumper stickers on her car, and went to concerts as often as possible. She even had limited edition, rhinestone encrusted kid rock shoes. She was one of the dumbest people I’ve ever encountered and a real piece of shit person.
Several years after divorcing my wife she still texts me asking for money (she’s a dirtbag gambling addict) despite fact I’ve ghosted her. I will never block her, because getting those texts is a sweet reminder that I’ve escaped my shitty ex’s shitty family. Fuck you Linda, you hateful garbagemonster
I used to be a huge Kid Rock fan.
But in my defense, I knew nothing about him, I was 10 years old, I’m German, and I understood none of the lyrics.
(My biggest dream was one day being able to move to the US. Yeah, that changed, too.)Devil Without a Cause was one of my favorite albums when I was in 8th grade. I made my mom listen to it in the car and I still feel kinda bad about it.
Yeah, I liked him when he came out, but I was literally 12. In my 20’s I used to half ironically bust out Bawitaba when I was hanging with the boys as a throwback, and we used to half jokingly have it be our anthem. Then 2016 came and he started fondling Trump’s balls daily. We haven’t played it since.
I mean he said it in the song “Now get in the pit and try to love someone” - you can’t get much deeper in the pit than Trump.
I adore my wife but her family is awful, it’s a tough spot. They’re so toxic
This is so tough. My partner’s mother is a vicious manipulator and abuser, still tries to put her hands on her grown children. I love him so much and want to do my best to support him but I can’t have a relationship with her. She’s not permitted at our house because every time we’ve tried, she starts a toddler tantrum over whatever comes to mind and gets violent.
I worry it weighs heavily on him and I wish I could stomach more interaction with her, I imagine it would make his life easier in some ways. But I’ve hit my max when it comes to abusive people. I’m a domestic abuse survivor and I simply don’t have any more space for folks who behave that way.
I worry it weighs heavily on him
I’m on the other side of that equation, and while my father being a racist POS weighs a bit on me, inviting him over and dealing with that bullshit fallout would be 50x worse.
ya’ doin’ fine
Oh, I thought he was humiliated just because he was kid rock.
Imagine being 55 years old and still insisting people call you “Kid” Rock.
Don’t you know his name consists of the two things he loves most in life? Rock and kids.
🤣
or being known for only only song.
Was that the one about diddling kids or was that another one? I’ve never heard that or any other song from him tbh, I just remember that he apparently sang about how he likes kids
I would assume it’s the one with the nonsense words they hired him to perform at the alternative half time show because the guy doing the real halftime show wasn’t singing in proper English.

You’re thinking of this one: https://songmeanings.com/songs/view/3530822107858686749/
Nobody much paid attention to that one until recently, after all he hadn’t been relevant at all for twenty years.
He does not have soul like Al Green.
Pretty sure it’s a brand name at this point. I can’t imagine anyone listens to him for his music.
They basically just use it as a fashion accessory to make other guys think they’re masculine
Huh, I think they’re gay as shit. Seems to have the opposite effect…
You mean the guys buying cars to impress other guys might be gay? That is a stretch
Kid Rock got shown up by fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli. Who thefuck in the past 30 years has ever thought “I wanna hear Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli”.
Jesusfuck, 250th year Anniversary of this country and this is the “talent” we have to show for it. Fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli…
Has ANYONE actually heard Milli Vanilli?
I mean, tbf to Milli Vanilli, they dropped out. In fact, their response was something along the lines of “we never signed up for this shit”
Several artists said that they were never even asked.
Milli Vanilli, they dropped out
Hasn’t the group only been one guy since the other one died in 1998?
The denial of involvement was from vocalists Jodi and Linda Rocco
their name is pretty much synonymous with the biggest lip-syncing scandal in pop culture history.
I hear what you did there
Unpopular opinion but as a collective artistic project I have no real issue with their music. And in fact, it’s quite good. Yeah sure their presentation was dishonest but I’d argue no more than modern auto tuned artists.
Yeah in the press conference after being busted for lip-synching one of them (fab or rob or gab or throb or whatever, idk) sang to prove he could.
I mean, yeah, it was fine. Whatever. The quality of the vocals wasn’t my main problem with them.
Isn’t it just Milli now? I thought Vanilli offed himself. Or maybe it’s the other way around. It would be disingenuous if one of them claimed to be a Milli or a Vanilli, when they aren’t. Girl, you know it’s true.
Milli Vanillus. It’s Latin.
I think they got someone else to off themselves for them.
Girl you know girl you know girl you know…
I don’t even know what this is. Does it come in any other flavors, or just vanilla?
To be fair, we have plenty of talent from 250 years. It’s just that most of them don’t want to perform for Trump.
You know they were so butthurt about the Superbowl they threw their own party. Their party here is going to suck and we all k ow it, time for everyone else to throw their own 250th party
I’d love to see 250th Anniversary parties everywhere but with giant “No Kings/Fuck Trump” banners everywhere, so they can’t try to spin it as “oh look they all joined in”
Nah, fuck your ego-feeding birthday party, we are having our own party, with community and social wellness.
~~I hadn’t thought about it before now, but I’d take Ice over Rock any day.
Vanilla Ice was in TMNT…what else could you want?~~
Edit: Fuck Vanilla Ice too, per below.
Vanilla Ice is full blown MAGA and is letting the current admin use “Ice Ice Baby” as an I.C.E. theme song
Okay well I did not know that so fuck him too then.
The Ninja Turtles did not deserve this!
Ooh bad move, yo.
I’m not doubting it, I just want it clarified. Is he letting them, or are they just doing it? The Trump Adm. has used a lot of artists stuff without permission, and have even continued to use it after they told them to stop. Has he actually made a statement allowing it, and if not, has he made a statement asking them not to?
Well, he DID headline Trump’s Mar-a-Lago NYE party, and now he’s doing this America 250 thing, soooo…
TMNT would never do a trump event unless it was to kick their Nazi asses. Fuck vanilla. Is he going to do his hits from 35 years ago?
Wait, didn’t that actually happen recently?
EDIT: Yep: https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-79-gets-his-dad-dance-on-with-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtle/
Boy, I can’t wait for Paramount to sue hi-OH WAIT A FUCKING SECOND.
Paramount also owns UFC. Yanno, the thing that’s going to happen on the freaking White House lawn.
Hit.
Ice Cube maybe.
Duh
well Milli Vanilli being a fraud is quite on point for anything this regime does
this article’s a good read.
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/feb/01/milli-vanilli-fab-morvan-interview-grammy-book-you-know-its-true
Milli Vanilli?! One of them is dead, though…
Milli Vanilli are French and German
Shh! Grandpa doesn’t know that!
makes sense they would be ‘collaborating’
I mean did he perform the ninja rap?
Vanilla Ice fronted a metal band of the same name for a while in the aughts, I saw them once and they were decent
Seems quite fitting if you ask me.
Not all is bad. At least the Washington Monument has a new swimming pool!
Funny thing is I would have never listened to kid rock except my mom bought me one of his cds when I was like 12 because she thought it was rock music for kids.
It was rock music for kids, Kid Rock even has a song about it.
Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.” His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”
doing those wierd exercises in the SAUNA with RFK JR ISNT good enough?
Jesus I thought that was a bad dream
We’re all stuck in this bad dream together, friend.
I just need to say that he should be called Grampa Rock now.
He looks rough
Looks like Grandpa Meth Rock now, I mean, he’s always looked like a Meth Head, but ya
You don’t have to insult meth rock like that. 7horse doesn’t deserve that
…probably. Shit, I hate that I have to do background checks on weird artists now
Oh shit there’s something we need, a celebrity background check website! We can crowd source canceling everyone!
C’mon. He looks okay for someone in his mid-sixties.
Of course that would mean a lot more if he was in his mid-sixties.
Yeah, Fake News anyway cause ya boi still passed out and doesn’t know he got the boot.
“…FUCK OFF!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Milli Vanilli performing at a maga festival is just perfect. AFAIK the German guy is dead already, which leaves the French guy to lipsync to someone else’s singing. Or did they find someone else to complete the duo again? Maybe a Scotsman this time?
Sadly I think they also bowed out. I was looking forward to it being just Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli because that would match the current level of poorly-aged cringe in the US.
I think Milli Vanilli considering the gig beneath them is even more delicious.
Ashley Simpson
The Commodore’s and Morris Day (which if Purple Rain’s depiction of him was accurate, is no surprise) are chef’s kiss.
“Contrary to rumor, Morris Day and the Time will not be performing at the ‘Great American State Fair,’” he wrote. Day captioned the post, “It’s a no for me.”
Wut.
According to this NYT article, Morris Day, Young MC, Martina McBride and the Commodores have all dropped out now, claiming to have been signed without understanding it was all a Trump thing, and the singer of the group currently using the Milli Vanilli name says they were not asked to perform at all. (No one’s heard from the original Milli Vanilli guy, Fab Morvan.)
Relieved about Young MC. I listened to his “Brainstorm” album over and over again as a kid.
One would think that he is most embarrassed that he looks like that now
I’m 47, but I look almost identical to how I looked when I was in my mid 20s. (I realize that I am exceptionally lucky, but he’s extremely rich, and has access to plastic surgeons and such)
He looks like shit
If you haven’t read this classic - read it now. It’s . . . well. Just read it.
Respect to the author for showing just how sad and pathetic Richie is
I didn’t realize it until I got into the second paragraph, but I read this when it was originally published.
It is exactly as upsetting as when I read it originally.
The Rolling Stone is an extraordinary publication.
It’s worth mentioning these are not the only times Ritchie drops the n-word during my visit. It’d be easy to label this as the rantings of a drunk racist, but as with everything that Ritchie does, it’s hard to know how calculated it all is. Is he just trying to get a reaction? Is he begging to be pilloried when this story comes out so he can launch into a very public tirade against “cancel culture”? Is this all just a play for more attention? Would any of that make it less shitty?
The strange thing is, despite his rhetoric, Ritchie’s politics aren’t uniformly regressive. He considers himself socially liberal. And the longer we argue, the more I can see the faint outlines of reasonable stances on things like immigration, government regulation of corporations, and tax policy. But here’s the thing: Nobody will ever hear any of that over the shouting, the name-calling, and all of his other attention-grabbing bullshit. I don’t think he really cares because the shouting, the name-calling, and the attention-grabbing bullshit are who he is now. It’s as if the blurry line between Kid Rock and Bob Ritchie has disappeared entirely.
It’s textbook alcoholism. Super simple.
It happens when you just kinda go with your addictions.
Drugs is a helluva drug.
Why do you care, and why do you think because people have money they would get plastic surgery?
Maybe he’s actually comfortable with who he is and doesn’t care to impress American twats.
Never thought I’d be defending the guy…
If he was comfortable with who he was, he would not constantly keep trying to get the approval of others, especially the Titanic pile of shit called Donald Trump and his followers.
I care because he is an insidious tool of fascism. And that tool is being used to destroy what little is left of democracy in this nation.
The question is: why don’t you care?
Never thought I’d be defending the guy…
Why are you? how could you?
Because good looks don’t herald good character and bad looks don’t herald bad character.
Wise words
But how does that apply to Kid Rock?
Maybe he’s actually comfortable with who he is and doesn’t care to impress American twats.
lmao
rofl even
The dude’s entire life has been spent in the pursuit of impressing terrible people.
So, when did you look in the mirror and just give up?
lol. lmao even.
