'I Got Them Everywhere': Kid Rock Allegedly Waved Gun At A Journalist During Interview
HuffPost
In a sprawling profile piece from Rolling Stone reporter David Peisner, he claimed Rock waved around a gun "to make some sort of point."
Kid Rock became “drunk and belligerent” and reportedly brandished a gun at Rolling Stone journalist David Peisner during an “off the rails” interview at the artist’s home in Nashville, Tennessee, last month.
The sprawling interview, published Sunday, unpacked Rock’s evolution from Detroit party starter to “MAGA mouthpiece,” painting a picture of a seasoned celebrity who revels in the reactions his conservative posturing receives from supporters and critics.
After hours of casual drinking and trying to bait Peisner into political debates over the singer’s “bestie,” Donald Trump, immigration, Rock’s now-defunct Budweiser boycott and the Confederate flag, Peisner claimed Rock’s playful provocations turned into something more combative.
While in the star’s home recording studio, Peisner said Rock grew increasingly erratic after trading his “white wine for Jim Beam and Diet Coke” and downing “at least three or four of them in pretty quick succession.”
