    Kid Rock got shown up by fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli. Who thefuck in the past 30 years has ever thought "I wanna hear Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli".

    Jesusfuck, 250th year Anniversary of this country and this is the "talent" we have to show for it. Fucking Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli......

    I mean, tbf to Milli Vanilli, they dropped out. In fact, their response was something along the lines of "we never signed up for this shit"

    Yeah in the press conference after being busted for lip-synching one of them (fab or rob or gab or throb or whatever, idk) sang to prove he could.

    I mean, yeah, it was fine. Whatever. The quality of the vocals wasn’t my main problem with them.

    Isn't it just Milli now? I thought Vanilli offed himself. Or maybe it's the other way around. It would be disingenuous if one of them claimed to be a Milli or a Vanilli, when they aren't. Girl, you know it's true.

    Unpopular opinion but as a collective artistic project I have no real issue with their music. And in fact, it's quite good. Yeah sure their presentation was dishonest but I'd argue no more than modern auto tuned artists.

    ~~I hadn't thought about it before now, but I'd take Ice over Rock any day.

    Vanilla Ice was in TMNT...what else could you want?~~

    Edit: Fuck Vanilla Ice too, per below.

    Vanilla Ice is full blown MAGA and is letting the current admin use "Ice Ice Baby" as an I.C.E. theme song

    I'm not doubting it, I just want it clarified. Is he letting them, or are they just doing it? The Trump Adm. has used a lot of artists stuff without permission, and have even continued to use it after they told them to stop. Has he actually made a statement allowing it, and if not, has he made a statement asking them not to?

    To be fair, we have plenty of talent from 250 years. It's just that most of them don't want to perform for Trump.

    I'd love to see 250th Anniversary parties everywhere but with giant "No Kings/Fuck Trump" banners everywhere, so they can't try to spin it as "oh look they all joined in"

    Nah, fuck your ego-feeding birthday party, we are having our own party, with community and social wellness.

    My ex wife's mom was a kid rock megafan. She had kid rock tshirts in heavy rotation, had kid rock bumper stickers on her car, and went to concerts as often as possible. She even had limited edition, rhinestone encrusted kid rock shoes. She was one of the dumbest people I've ever encountered and a real piece of shit person.

    Several years after divorcing my wife she still texts me asking for money (she's a dirtbag gambling addict) despite fact I've ghosted her. I will never block her, because getting those texts is a sweet reminder that I've escaped my shitty ex's shitty family. Fuck you Linda, you hateful garbagemonster

    This is so tough. My partner's mother is a vicious manipulator and abuser, still tries to put her hands on her grown children. I love him so much and want to do my best to support him but I can't have a relationship with her. She's not permitted at our house because every time we've tried, she starts a toddler tantrum over whatever comes to mind and gets violent.

    I worry it weighs heavily on him and I wish I could stomach more interaction with her, I imagine it would make his life easier in some ways. But I've hit my max when it comes to abusive people. I'm a domestic abuse survivor and I simply don't have any more space for folks who behave that way.

    I'm on the other side of that equation, and while my father being a racist POS weighs a bit on me, inviting him over and dealing with that bullshit fallout would be 50x worse.

    ya' doin' fine

    Milli Vanilli performing at a maga festival is just perfect. AFAIK the German guy is dead already, which leaves the French guy to lipsync to someone else’s singing. Or did they find someone else to complete the duo again? Maybe a Scotsman this time?

    The Commodore's and Morris Day (which if Purple Rain's depiction of him was accurate, is no surprise) are chef's kiss.

    According to this NYT article, Morris Day, Young MC, Martina McBride and the Commodores have all dropped out now, claiming to have been signed without understanding it was all a Trump thing, and the singer of the group currently using the Milli Vanilli name says they were not asked to perform at all. (No one's heard from the original Milli Vanilli guy, Fab Morvan.)

    Was that the one about diddling kids or was that another one? I've never heard that or any other song from him tbh, I just remember that he apparently sang about how he likes kids

    I would assume it's the one with the nonsense words they hired him to perform at the alternative half time show because the guy doing the real halftime show wasn't singing in proper English.

    Nobody much paid attention to that one until recently, after all he hadn't been relevant at all for twenty years.

    Pretty sure it's a brand name at this point. I can't imagine anyone listens to him for his music.

    They basically just use it as a fashion accessory to make other guys think they're masculine

    Funny thing is I would have never listened to kid rock except my mom bought me one of his cds when I was like 12 because she thought it was rock music for kids.

    It was rock music for kids, Kid Rock even has a song about it.

    Young ladies, young ladies, I like ‘em underage,” Rock sings on the track. “See some say that’s statutory.” His sidekick at the time, the late Joe-C then chimes in, “But I say it’s mandatory.”

    Oh, I thought he was humiliated just because he was kid rock.

    I find this a bit hard to believe. Is Kid Rock aware enough to feel humiliation?

    At this rate, the headliner will be one of Iskanka's kids hooting out "Hot Cross Buns" on an out-of-tune clarinet.
