Drunk Kid Rock hauled off stage after profanity-laced anti-Oprah rant

[RandySF]

All-around good guy Kid Rock was at it again last week.

The controversial artist launched a profanity-filled tirade against day-time talk show hosts at a bar in Nashville. An apparently intoxicated Rock was later removed from the stage by security.

In video obtained by TMZ, Rock, 48, tells the crowd, “F--- Oprah. Oprah Winfrey is like ‘Hey, I just want women to believe in this s---’. F--- her. She can s--- d--- sideways.”

Rock, whose legal name is Robert Ritchie, is a longstanding Oprah hater. In a 2008 interview with The Independent, Rock put Winfrey in the category of his “real-life villain” and said, I just don't believe her. Maybe it's because I'm not one of the 150 million brainwashed women who heed her every word.”

An avowed Trump supporter who’s dealt with accusations of racism in the past, Rock attempted to downplay any racist overtones to his anti-Oprah stance. First he attacked other talk show hosts Joy Behar and Kathy Lee Gifford. Rock has previously clashed with Behar, who he called a “b----” on a 2018 episode of “The View,” which Behar co-hosts.

Then, he concluded his bizarre rant with “If you say that, you’re like, ‘Hey, well, pretty sure Kid Rock’s a racist.’ I’m like, OK, fine. F--- off. Sideways.”

[Eliot Rosewater]

1. Never understood why he was allowed a recording contract in the first place

Just another stupid racist punk and NOT a musician, not AT ALL!

[smirkymonkey]

2. Stay classy, Kid Rock.

You rancid, Trump-loving POS.

[Progressive Jones]

3. What is it with lower class white dudes and Oprah?

1) She's a successful woman.

2) She's a successful black woman.

[nolabear]

6. Beg pardon? Can you elaborate?

[Progressive Jones]

29. I've heard whining about Oprah from white male "regular guys" for years. Does that help? nt

[Hermit-The-Prog]

42. damnit, I never get to respond to 'Post removed'

[RandySF]

5. His family was quite wealthy.

The whole trailer park schtik is an act.

[shenmue]

7. His father owns a car dealership

[Progressive Jones]

25. I was referring to behavior and attitude. Money doesn't buy class. It CAN buy a recording career. nt

[radius777]

37. Exactly, he's a poseur from the suburbs.

He did have some talent back in the day, was inspired by hip hop and punk rock, but for some reason went straight off the rails and became a rabid right winger.

I just don't know how he can square some of the lyrics in his songs, which seem to show solidarity with the social underdogs (including minorities) and then support someone like Trump, the ultimate bully.

[muntrv]

8. He's not lower class. His father founded Crest Lincoln.

[Progressive Jones]

24. I was referring to low class behavior and attitude. Sorry for the confusion. nt

[Hoyt]

9. Donny's buddy.

[Demovictory9]

10. video

[SergeStorms]

45. Just another racist, woman-hating, narcissist.....

cut from the same mold as his buddy, Little Donnie Trump. Another privileged white kid trying to sell everybody on his "street cred". He isn't worth the piss on his filthy jeans.

[NCLefty]

11. It sounds like Kid Rock really hates women. n/t

[jcgoldie]

43. And watches too much TeeVee

What an idiot.

[dewsgirl]

12. Before I knew who he was, I thought he was great. About 10

years ago, I even saw him at Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando once.😔
I have learned to separate the artist from their body of work in the last few years. I used to love Kevin Spacey, he is a gifted actor, but a shitty person.

[Progressive Jones]

26. I never knew who he was until he was a has been already. Short career. nt

[dewsgirl]

30. He did a duet with Sheryl Crow it's called, Picture.

It's a beautiful song.
My husband, who is not a Trump supporter, but also not a bit into politics, has his whole collection.

[SKKY]

13. This may not be relevant to the discussion...

...but, how exactly does one s@*k d!*k sideways?? I’m more interested in his obsession with doing things of a sexual nature “sideways”.

[Progressive Jones]

27. LMAO!!! nt

[Rorey]

34. Sideways

I think he may have killed off more brain cells than he had to spare with all of that drinking.

[madinmaryland]

14. In most situations this would have been a career ending event...

But his career was over years ago.

[Jake Stern]

17. Trump would simply tweet an order to his minions

to buy Kid Rock’s latest album and they would.

[Jake Stern]

15. Its okay to criticize Oprah

It’s NOT okay to do so by resorting to a drunken, expletive filled misogynistic rant.

[UniteFightBack]

16. WHAT is this little cock's problem? Oh wait that's the problem. nt

[druidity33]

20. Except...

he's almost as famous because of how "well hung" he is as he is for the "songs" he sings...

[Martin Eden]

18. Looks like he's trying to be a bigger POS than Ted Nugent

Maybe a reality TV show with that competition can take the place of Celebrity Apprentice.

[The Genealogist]

40. Boy wouldn't THAT be something to behold

Two irrelevant jackasses competing against each other to see which of them is the bigger jackass. I'd guess literally shitting themselves would be part of the program.

[Martin Eden]

41. Literaly shitting himself

... is what the "patriotic" Ted Nugent did to avoid getting drafted to fight in Vietnam.

[lordsummerisle]

19. I don't follow popular culture very much

and one example of this is I often confuse The Rock with Kid Rock...

[Paladin]

21. Back to Daddy's mansion, Kid.

Call up Don Trump Jr. and have some vigorous phone sex. That'll fix you right up.

[hatrack]

22. "Controversial artist"?

Nah, just another asshole.

[Hassler]

23. Spoiled, entitled Richie Rich is a no-talent racist, just like

Cat Scratch Nugent.

[Cha]

28. But he digs the psycho perverted Liar Assface in

the WH.

Poor kiddy rock.. ya dumbfuck

[YOHABLO]

31. He's just plain ignorant. Nothing new here.

[StarfishSaver]

32. Only the best people

[BlueStater]

33. All this sexist douchebag's insults involve fellation.

Such a juvenile mind this nearly 50-year-old punk has.

[Midnight Writer]

35. He should have been a cowboy.

[LessAspin]

36. Metro Times: biggest d-bag in pop music

Link to tweet

[Niagara]

38. Here is who Robert Ritchie really is.

Yes, that's him on the right.

[cwydro]

39. Yuck.

What an idiot.

[Caliman73]

44. Hey I'm not racist, I just really, really hate women, yes mainly women of color but ...

not because of their race, well maybe a little but REALLY because I hate women who consider themselves deserving of equality. See... I'm not a bad guy...

Keep talking Ritchie. At least you can still play the racist right wing circuit.

[Initech]

46. I believe that this is what is known as "rock bottom".

What an ass.
