Over the summer, out of nowhere, Kid Rock decided to tweet out some sexist garbage at Taylor Swift, which put me in the unfortunate position of having to defend Taylor Swift. I don’t care for Tay, but she doesn’t deserve to be attacked on Twitter by Kid Rock of all people. He decided to be extra-demeaning about her conversion to the Democratic Party, and he basically said that she’s only a Democrat now so she can break into Hollywood and, like, she’ll still have to give blow jays to people for parts. It was a trash opinion from a MAGA poseur and wannabe redneck. Well, what’s Kid Rock up to these days? Getting wasted and deciding to stand on stage at a bar and trash… Oprah and Joy Behar? What are we even doing?
Kid Rock wants the world to know he HATES Oprah Winfrey (and other talk show hosts), but also … don’t call him racist because of it. His drunken words, not ours. The country rocker went on a wild tirade last week at his own Honky Tonk bar in Nashville — which apparently overserved their boss, ’cause the man was clearly intoxicated as he blasted O from the stage … saying, “F*** Oprah!” and other vulgarities we won’t repeat.
Check out the video, ’cause it’s truly an ugly sight to behold. He lays into Oprah repeatedly and then goes on to attack Joy Behar and Kathy Lee Gifford. We don’t know why he might’ve gone after Kathy, but he and Joy had beef last year — he even called her a bitch on TV. As far as O goes … he’s noted in past interviews that he just doesn’t like her, period. No clear reason as to why, though. Adding insult to injury, KR consistently explains that just because he hates these folks — especially Oprah — that doesn’t make him racist. Some members of the crowd disagreed.
Eventually, Kid — who’s a staunch Trump supporter, BTW — appeared to be so hammered … he had to be helped off stage by security. Not a good look at all.
I don’t think someone is automatically racist for hating Oprah. But I do feel like “why Oprah?” Of all the prominent women in media/pop culture/the world, why decide that Oprah is the one who deserves to be called out so obscenely? Oprah is off in her mansion with her dogs, not giving a f–k about poseur MAGA trash. Anyway, in vino veritas. Kid Rock is a misogynistic and racist POS and it really comes out when he’s sloppy drunk. Big surprise.
Here’s the video. NSFW for language. He’s so gross.

When I first clicked on this link I got an “error” message. I thought, Yep, that’s about right. Kid Rock is the error message of humanity.
The photos were screwed up, my bad! First day back after a holiday, I’m working out the kinks
No worries. Kaiser, you’re the best! Thanks for being here for us on this slow gossip day.
If we stop paying attention to losers like this they’ll go away. Although this is a great video to show kids downfall of booze.
I just spent four days in Nashville and his three story club was packed all day, everyday. I think gross behavior is part of the marketing.
He’s like a drunk old lady about to hit someone with his purse. What TF is he watching on tv all day that this is the hill he wants to climb and die on. Do they come on after Springer or something
I’m not a fan of Winfrey or Behar, but … Ugh. This guy is a proper bell end.
Lolol I had to look that one up in a British slang dictionary. How appropriate! 😂😂😂😂😂
The headline is to die for: Kid Rock got Sloppy drunk…. I’m assuming that’s most days. Maybe he’s jealous because all of these women have had longer and more successful careers than his? What an ass.
How about a minor edit? “Sloppy drunk Kid Rock trashed Oprah …”
Um, no. Immodest women are not to blame for our oppression, while slut-shaming and victim-blaming done by both sexes definitely are. Pam deserves cancelling, but not because she sexualized herself. Women don’t owe it to either sex to be ladies. Copying conservative misogynists & patriarchal religions by demanding women watch how they dress/dance/pose/fuck, and calling the abuse feminism is part of the problem, not the solution.
🙄😒🍷Please. There is no ‘reduced to’ because women, like all human beings, are more than what they choose to do or not do with their bodies, full stop. Whether it’s within the context of a marriage/relationship, for her own desire to not submit to respectability politics, for profit, or anywhere in between. A woman isn’t automatically a sex object just because lust is in a man’s eye. Also, time to stop calling women all variations of ‘sl*t’, it weakens this attempt to frame an already violent and problematic stance as woke. By framing desire and sexuality as opposites of personhood for women while also weaponizing the misogynistic slurs used to demonize and dehumanize sexually immodest women, the Purity Princess PLAYS INTO our patriarchal oppression. Whether she’s a conservative woman who realizes it or a misguided liberal woman convinced that her toxic treatment of other women and young girls for not hiding their bodies is feminism, or a protection. T.I. thinks
subjecting girls to virginity tests is standing up for them too.
Screaming at women to close their legs/cover their tits for our greater good has never saved, and will never save, women from inequality or oppression. This fact is so partially because of:
1.) What it’s routed in
2.) The extra grounds for discrimination & hierarchy it creates for our sex based on real or perceived sexual modesty, and
3.) The fact that it not only leaves girls/women scarred to the point of hurting and killing themselves based on that hierarchy, but drives others to dominate, abuse, and murder women by fostering the same ‘Blame it on promiscuous girls’ mentality you’ve already demonstrated. It’s not power or equality to be the woman treating other women that way, it’s punching down.
I’m with you, EB.
Not so long ago he said something terribly ugly about Taylor Swift too, I think the drift being she’s a slut who slept her way to the top. This guy hates women. People should boycott this poor excuse for a human for sure.
He’s so jealous of their millions, and that fact that he’s a chronically drunken, booze- bloated, greasy, 48 year old grampa (!seriously!), racist, wanna-be southerner ( born in MI).
Gah, he is such a loser.
Yep and he had to go take his tired schtick to Nashville because Detroit could care less about him. He actually grew up super privileged and wealthy just OUTSIDE Detroit, but loves to claim the city as his own to cash in. This guy is truly one of the worst people.
He’s a hater haha. Have several seats. Trick.
Wow! This could get tense folks! First there was Biggie and Tupac! Now it’s Kid Rock and Oprah, Joy, and…*checks notes twelve times*….Kathie Lee Gifford? 😂 He has fallen to a new level of pathetic yet untapped!
What a weak little man: afraid of and jealous of successful women who have a voice in the world.
He is such white trash.
I grew up in trailer parks in Michigan and find him so irritating because he grew up in a huge house with wealthy parents. He has created a cultivated image because he has the privilege to play a part without actually needing to live the life. Both kid rock and his songs lack all authenticity.
This is something I just don’t understand. You trying to get with the people who are less unfortunate for show and “how cool it would be to a poor white” without living like poor white people who don’t have the means for living.
Oh wait that’s right, they tried it with minorities but since they are “poor whites” they are too stupid to figure out that Kid Rock is mocking them instead of humanizing them right? That’s even more of insult to poor white people who are trying to make ends meet for themselves and families.
I don’t feel sorry for Kid Rock and he can crawl back to his hole where he comes from.
Yep this is Bob from the burbs, not trailer park. This playing up to the folks with a 10% IQ is so disingenuous. It’s like Senator John Kennedy (not from the Boston Kennedys) yelling he’s proud to be a redneck while it says on his bio he went to a prestigious school?
Please misguided white people, stop playing up to the trumpsters.
It is a well known fact that Kid Rock is a tool.
WhiteTrash hillbilly, who can’t hold his liquor.
This doofus has made a ton of cash on a small amount of talent.
Apologies to white trash hillbillies everywhere, and I know a few. 🙂
Dude when you are so liquored up that you get pulled off stage at the bar YOU OWN, you really need to sober up. And shut up.
My understanding is that Kid Rock grew up in a well off family in an affluent community. So he’s a hillbilly wannabe. He seems to be disgracing Nashville on a regular basis. I hear so many great things about Nashville but it seems his presence is staining its reputation.
He’s from a wealthy Michigan family. The hillbilly part is an act. The white trash part is real.
You don’t need to be poor to be white trash.
You don’t need to be white either. He’s just trash. Trash is trash.
He is an insecure, vile pig.
Wait…..that’s an insult to pigs, he’s just a loser.
Do you think he meant Kathy Griffin?
I am sure he meant Kathy Lee Gifford. She lives in Nashville or at least in the area now . Maybe they met on the street and she ignored him. I am no fan of Oprah or Joy Behar either.
That would make more sense as she did that decapitiated Rump parody photo.
Breaking news! A washed up mediocre white man gies on a drunken misogynistic rant.
Also, I’m mesmerized by how concave Pamela Anderson’s stomach is in that picture.
She actively sucking it in.
Is Kid Rock even still a thing? I thought he went out with Jesus Jones, just another one-hit-wonder. I mean. Wasn’t his biggest hit a mash-up of other people’s work? I do believe it was.
He reminds me of Kevin Sorbo. Another “conservative” who benefits off of ignorance and white privilege, but no real talent.
To be honest, his duet with Sheryl Crowe was good. He can actually have a modest career if he got rid of the hilly billy schtick.
I’m really ashamed that I used to find him oddly attractive ANd I paid to go see one of his shows over ten years ago. It grosses me out.
Oh honey…it’s ok. We’ve all had at least one like that.
He’s such a joke. Grew up wealthy in a Michigan suburb, moved to NY, adopted a blaccent and became a rapper, failed at that and tried his hand at rap/rock, was mediocre at that and has now morphed into a country music singing, Trump supporting hillbilly who loves guns, racism, and misogyny. Utter garbage.
Ah Kid Rock. You uncouth, trash receptacle. I sometimes get you and Ted Nugent mixed up … because well garbage is garbage. Anyhoo, he’s got no career, no culture, no intelligence, no life. A poor pathetic excuse of a man feeling threatened by women. Just like his idol, Trump.
Yep well put!
PERFECT description! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ugh my cousin and her family love this guy. I think they even went on a cruise with him. I can’t even. Coincidentally I haven’t seen her in quite a few years. We don’t have much we can talk about… I am an advocate for diversity and inclusion and they …. love the guy who personifies ignorance and is just beyond gross.
Kid Rockbottom would be more appropriate.
I live in Oakland County Michigan. There is a restaurant\bar called The Woodshop in Clarkson, Michigan. Kid Rock is friends with the owner and comes in there and is very rude to customers who approach him. Then he goes over to the bar and grabs a few beers and goes upstairs. I know this because I have witnessed it. They have awesome Mac n Cheese. That is what we go there for! Also Guy Ferrai from Diives Diner whatever came to do a show about this restaurant.
He should not be allowed in any establishment where food is served.
so nice to have this blog back after the holiday break, i missed it!
When the taylor swift tweet came out was when i first saw kid rocks dad owned multiple car dealerships, what a f**king liar kid rock is about being trailer trash
His racism is shocking considering his son is half black.
Well , he made a derogatory song about his relationship with her or should I about “f*cking” her🙄 I think he has issues with her, but that song was no worse than your typical rap lyric about black women so
Take off that hat and show us what you have underneath. I bet he’s as bald as trump and just as ignorant.
Guess its not a popular opinion but I kinda agree with his comments on Taylor Swift. She kept quiet for years while the alt-right exploited her image and she said nothing.
August – She finally speaks out and says she regrets not endorsing Clinton.
ALSO August – First Cats trailer.
He may be a HUGE jerk, but even broken clocks etc….
All of his targets were women. Figures.
