'Kid' Rock.
Holy shit, aging has hit him like a sledgehammer. The guy is apparently 55 but looks like he's 75. Is it weak genes? Is it poor lifestyle? Or is it from having a curdled and hate-filled soul? Maybe all three I guess. But regardless, bubba looks like he's about to head to the old folks home any day.
More like Crack Rock
I was just wondering if we shouldn't be calling him Old Man Rock by now. But he's only 3 years older than I am? He looks at least a decade older.
I used to hang with a lot of hard-partying night-owls. Combining poor sleep, cigarettes, and alcohol can age a person pretty damn fast. If you add hard drugs to the mix, or even some legitimate prescriptions, it happens faster.
Cocaine has that effect
Holy shit, this is the SAME kid rock from the 90s? i thought someone was reusing the name because that dude is forgotten.
Ted Nugent is still a thing too.
Point and laugh.
In a social media post made after the halftime show had concluded, Kirk’s widow Erika said that her husband “would have loved” the halftime show.
Jesus, just dig him up and shoot him again. No need to say the guy would have liked Kid Rock...
yeah, whats with the character assassination
He looks so fucking stupid, I can't breathe
I am sure all the fan that watched it were disappointed.
The only thing more distracting than a crowd booing you is silence with one person cheering for you in public.
assuming that its viewership totals exceeded Melanoma is a big assumption
I think it's hilarious that the MAGATs tuned out the real Superbowl halftime show in order to watch an old ass pedofile lipsink to his godawful songs.
No, it aired after the actual halftime show.

In this creep's defense, If I could come out of retirement and make millions more off the absolute dumbest motherfuckers on the planet by putting in the bare minimum amount of effort....I'd have to seriously consider it.
He never retired, he just became irrelevant.
Quite in the line of expectations, to be frank. Fakiness is part of that country
Everything about Kid Rock is fake.
He is rich, privileged white boy, who came from rich family, grew up in a fuckin mansion, went to private school, etc etc.
But he is obsessed with trying to cosplay as some low income, blue collar, trailer park livin dude, whose highest achievement in life was fondling his sisters tit when she was drunk and unconscious after a party when he was 15.
To be fair, groping his sister probably is his highest achievement.
You can take the Kid out of the used car lot, but you can't take the used car lot out of the Kid.
It's also terrible lip syncing. He looks completely lost.
He forgot to take his meth today. No wonder he looks so burnt out.
Lol from the picture I thought this was Joe exotic
Kid Rock is country? I thought he was shitty rap rock. Or is any MAGA artist now deemed "country"?
Country rap is a thing now.
It's how God is letting us know the next flood is imminent.
At this point it's anybody who ever flew the Lolita Express.
Give him a break, his hit song was from decades ago. He can't possibly have enough brain cells to remember something that long ago.
Is it still lip syncing if he totally failed to synchronize with it?
It wasn't the lips on his face that was syncing with the music...... It was his ass
So I guess the methtime show didn’t work out?
Out of everything, if you cared that he lip synced then that says more about you than about him.
Eh, it's still fake and kinda lame compared to actually performing it.
Old Man Rock
Kid Rock sucks, and there was no reason for him to flail around on stage, but there's a reason entertainers lip sync: Axl Rose 2002 VMAs. Other good reasons exist, but man...I remember watching that live and thinking he must have mocked the rock gods.
If you're a decent performer there's no need. If you're not good enough without studio editing, you shouldn't be performing live anyway.
If you’re not good enough
anyways.i apologize, but this is my hobby horse. so, here is my musician rant.
have you heard stevie nicks lately? she's just aged, same as the rest of us. her voice ain't what it used to be, that's no reason to ban someone from live performing. take it from someone who has been a very bad professional musician, the line of "are you good enough" is "do you have the chutzpah to stand up in front of a crowd". that's it. punk is full of musicians who are terrible at their instruments but they play together, they have the emotion and they have fun. The Gin Blossoms' guitarist knew two chords and one strumming pattern on their first two albums and was really more of a country guitarist than a pop/alternative guy. Thousands of people remember their songs fondly. It's not about good, it's about emotion and enjoyment, and if you get that when you play that's what people go to see. -source i've played with tower of power, afterglow, confunkshun, i'm not going to name my band or the actual local bands that i sit in with but sitting in with those 3 were the highlights
I saw a clip of the performance... It was a really bad lip sync. As in he kept pulling the mic away from his head well before the lyrics were over. I'd heard the controversy and was like, I'm sure it wasn't that obvious he was lip syncing, and was floored when I saw the actual performance.
