Megyn Kelly Interviews Bad Ass Correspondent Kid Rock

» 7 comments

Megyn Kelly kicked off her America Live broadcast today with an in-studio interview with musician Kid Rock.

While Mr….Rock admitted he didn’t know why he was there, he had a lot to say about politics, Detroit and more.

“The whole thing I see is people are just freaked out and fed up with people being too far left or too far right, just the extremists,” he said. “Everyone’s like, ‘just calm down.’”

He said he didn’t like to talk publicly about his political beliefs, but this should give you a fairly good idea:

I actually have a nightmare that I’m going to wake up and everyone’s driving a Prius and living in a condo, but we’re all getting health insurance.

Maybe Kid Rock passes out while watching the 2am replay of Glenn Beck‘s show.

But take everything with a grain of salt. As he said early in the interview: “I probably shouldn’t be talking about politics, when I think about it. I’m not that educated.”

Megyn Kelly and Kid Rock are apparently buddies – they were out partying together last night (or so she tweeted):

Just left party w/kid rock – he’s coming on show wed 2/17. Tune in @ 1p!

Here’s the interview:

    I liked the interview. He’s not all stuck on himself, he does great things for his community, our troops, etc. A man that is smart enough to admit he’s not qualified to comment or criticise a certain topic is, well, a man. More than I can say about a lot of people, or most, on tv and here. I don’t much care for most of Kid Rocks music, but, he’s a Patriot in my book.

    Kid Rock votes Republican, he said so during the last election. He’s one of the few rock stars who actually thinks for himself instead of parroting the usual lefty line. Instead of crowing about Bush and phony ass climate change he spends his time in Iraq and Afghanistan playing for the troops.

    I don’t like mean women, so I don’t watch Megyn. I don’t care what right winger she is interviewing or what moderate she is trashing.

    TRRK you think she is “mean”? You must be one easily threatened man.

    “You must be one easily threatened man.”

    The faux royal king is more than likely threatened by it’s own shadow…..

    For someone who spends so much time talking about how awful and dangerous FNC is… you apparently spend next to no time actually watching it. I guess you’re just parroting back what someone else has told you. Why is that?

    Megyn Kelly is awesome, love her grit and her spunk. …Also a very smart woman. ..And she’s great looking. ..Still can’t beat Julie banderas though. ..That woman is a goddess. ..
