More pictures of Kellie after the jump…

I guess Kellie kept a secret for a long time, but let it slip on an interview. From the SF Gate:

The hitmaker showed up at the recent CMT Video Awards in Nashville, Tenn., with ex-girlfriend Sheryl Crow, but he was really at the award show to be close to his new love, according to the Globe.

A source tells the publication, “The romance between Kellie and Kid has been the worst-kept secret in Nashville.”

Insiders claim Pickler was talking about Kid Rock when she recently told a radio interviewer, “I’m seeing someone. I got a man. He’s a great, great guy. We’ve been seeing each other for over a year.”

I just don’t see this pairing. Not one bit. I can definitely see Kid going for Kellie, because she fits his style – curvy, blonde, leggy – but I don’t see anything lasting. I chalk this up as rumor until I see Kid and Kellie together!

The Michigan Brewing Company is excited about the prospect of a successful beer.  If it takes off, they can hire a couple hundred people.  And we know there are thousands available in this economy!  From WXYZ News 7:

A brewer headquartered southeast of Lansing is getting a tax credit to produce a new line of beer for Kid Rock.

The tax credit for the Webberville-based Michigan Brewing Company was approved by the Michigan Economic Growth Authority. It’s valued at $722,957. The company plans to invest $7 million in the project, which is expected to create about 400 jobs in the state.

In order to help with the project, the village of Webberville is also considering an abatement.

The Michigan Brewing Company is owned by Bobby Mason. He says he hopes to have the Kid Rock branded beer in stores sometime in the spring. The beer’s name, style and pricing have yet to be determined, and Kid Rock is working closely with the company to make those decisions.

The brewery currently employs about eight people, and produces about 100,000 barrels a bear a year. Mason says he hopes to double production because of the new Kid Rock beer, and hopes to hire more than 150 employees over the next five year. Those jobs are expected to be in the sales packaging and production department.

I wonder how closely he is working with the company.  Does it mean taking a bunch of bimbos out to the bar and taste testing the competition?  Will you drink the beer because it has his name on it?

Kid Rock says he often wears furs on stage.  Plus, he loves to hunt and eat meat.  Look out now!  This is what he says to PeTA via Female First bringing the war on:

“I want to go to war with Peta. My biggest extravagance is fur coats – I’ve got every kind of animal in my wardrobe.”

The rocker also slams Peta’s activism tactics – which have included throwing red paint on fur-wearing stars – and urges the group to try the same protest with him.

He adds: “I’m just willing the animal rights protesters to chuck some red paint on me.

I guess it’ no secret why he and PeTA activist Pam Anderson got divorced.  She didn’t like the dead animals in his closet, forget the skeletons!

How soon do you think someone goes after Kid Rock and his coats?  I can’t wait to see the smackdown he gives them!

The Mirror – who has a history of getting things wrong lately – claims Kid Rock trashed MTV after the VMA Awards Sunday night.  Why?  Who knows, it’s kid rock.  They say:

“Kid jumped on tables and chairs and crashed through one table. And he broke around 20 glasses.”

I also heard the same thing about his summer concert appearances, plus he peed on some couches.  Why would he do that to MTV, who has only helped his career out?  Might be true, but if it was, I think the US papers would have picked it up and run with it.  What do you think??

More pictures after the pause…

Kid Rock was supposed to perform at a Download music festival – whatever that is.  The official word at the time was that he fell ill and had to go to the hospital. 

Then later he said he pulled out last minute because he claims his band and his ‘people’ weren’t treated correctly.  They weren’t given food, water or bathroom facilities, which he said was not right.  After telling the organizer he had two hours to get it straightened out and they didn’t, he left.  He peed on the promoter’s couch, then left. 

Now, a third version came out which says he was shopping and didn’t bother to show up.  Hmmm….I doubt he was sick, so which of the two excuses sound real?

Kid Rock was SUPPOSED to perform in London for a festival, but pulled out only minutes before the gig.  The AP reports he had stomach cramps and was dehydrated.  And it’s too bad that several witnesses saw hims drinking and partying the night before in to the weeeee hours of the morning.  Kind of makes one wonder how much of a hangover he had.  It hurts to perform with a headache.  Or maybe he had just read the headlines about Pam and Tommy Lee being together again.  That would make anyone sick!!

After the mandatory waiting period, both stars will be legally free to once again—or, as it happens, thrice again—tie the knot.

They were married on July 29 on a yacht in St. Tropez. In a note posted on her Web site the following day, Anderson described the nuptials as: “The best most romantic wedding of all time.” The romance didn’t last too long, in November, they filed for divorce!  Anyway, I think Pamela and Kid look pretty good together! Bummer!
