If you were angling for an endorsement deal, what would go for? Cars? Speedboats? Batter-based breakfast delicacies?
Kid Rock seems to have his eye on the last one, because everything he does seems to revolve around waffles. Not content with allegedly smashing up a Waffle House in a fight recently, Kid Rock has now played a benefit show in one.
Waffles, that's all you ever get from Kid Rock these days. Anyone would think he was a Belgian if it weren't for his rubbish haircut, funny accent and suspect-looking hygiene practises. Wait a minute, all Belgians have all of those things too - throw in a side-job moonlighting as a motorway service station toilet attendant who won't let you go for a piss unless you first drop a coin into his grubby polystyrene cup and we'd be convinced that Kid Rock was Belgian through and through.
There's an old saying that goes 'Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, but give a redneck a waffle and he'll smack you on the head with a chair'.
Unless he didn't smack anyone over the head with a chair. And yesterday, Kid Rock pleaded not guilty to that exact thing.
Kid Rock appeared before an Atlanta court yesterday to plead not guilty to five counts of battery and one count of simple battery following his alleged involvement in a Waffle House in October. If found guilty, not only will Kid Rock face a year in jail, but it'll also give Waffle House the chance to roll out its 'Waffle House: Fuelling Shit-Thick Redneck Dust-Ups Since 2007' ad campaign it's been so excited about lately.
Trouble is Kid Rock's middle name. Actually it isn't - it's probably Jeb or Enos or Clawfoot or something - but that doesn't matter because Trouble is also Kid Rock's best friend, wife, vicar and Meals On Wheels delivery operative.
Kid Rock is addicted to trouble, and it doesn't matter if it's the sort of trouble that involves physical violence or the sort of trouble that involves making dreadful redneck heavy metal that sounds like it should exclusively soundtrack cross-eyed, chipped-tooth monster truck rallies. But sometimes Kid Rock's penchant for trouble gets him into, um, trouble - like when Kid Rock decided to use the live, globally-televised MTV VMA awards this year to start a fight with Tommy Lee. However, despite everyone in the world seeing Kid Rock and Tommy Lee slapping each other like babies during the awards, police have announced that Kid Rock won't be charged for the brawl, mainly because they need all their MTV VMA manpower to try and pin a charge of Miming With Intent To Appal on Britney Spears.
