It turns out, Kid Rock still has many more opinions to dispense. (And some of them actually surprising!) In a piece from the upcoming March issue of Rolling Stone, Patrick Doyle interviews the deeply unapologetic performer; and among the many things we learn are: Rock is flabbergasted by Beyonce worship. Its not weird for him to receive text messages from Sarah Palin. And, perhaps strangest of all, he frequently holds dinner parties with Josh Groban, Mike Diamond and Sean frickin Penn.
On Beyonces body just not doing much for him:
Beyoncé, to me, doesnt have a fucking Purple Rain, but shes the biggest thing on Earth. How can you be that big without at least one Sweet Home Alabama or Old Time Rock & Roll? People are like, Beyoncés hot. Got a nice fucking ass. Im like, Cool, I like skinny white chicks with big tits. Doesnt really fucking do much for me.
On Mitt Romney:
Hes the most decent motherfucker Ive ever met in my life.
On what he learned from his trip to the Middle East:
I spent two Christmases there?.?.?.?slept in Saddams bedroom, he says. Those trips affirmed Rocks political beliefs. Hes pro-torture in some situations, and he sees gun ownership as a sacred right. Getting rid of them is not the answer, he says. Adds Greg, If all the guns were taken from American citizens, the only ones who would have guns would be the damn outlaws.

Jackass.
edited to add: I copied the title of the article exactly as written. I bolded the part about Romney. I didn't want to change the title cuz often times people get picky about that. I really don't care what he thinks about Bey's body--but what he said about Romney and torture I thought were...interesting isn't the right word....anyway...just wanted to clear that up.

(23,296 posts)More exactly the tonal center is off. Song is in G, guitar solo is in D. Some of the notes work, some don't. I cannot believe that song was released with that aberration of a solo.

Here's how you do a modern song about how much you love Skynyrd.

She's good. Period. I can respect talent, even when I'm not a fan.
Kid Rock? Umm. Why does he have an audience outside of his bathroom mirror?
That's what I can't figure out.

(31,851 posts)But what he said regarding her looks doesn't offend me - should it?
It's personal preference.
To me - he's not attractive. No square jaw, no dimples, no cleft in his chin - not interested.

I bolded the part about Mitt Romney. The fact he he broke women down into body parts just took he 'jackassedness' (I think I made up a whole new word ) to another level.

Rex
(65,616 posts)He complains, yet where is HIS Purple Rain etc..? He should be happy that with little skill at music he has, still made him millions and millions. There are a lot of much harder working and talented singers that never get his chance.
