My Secret Life: Kid Rock, Musician, age 37

Interview by Charlotte Philby
Saturday, 19 July 2008Kid Rock: Im not a greedy man, there really is nothing I couldnt live without
The home I grew up in was a beautiful, very middle-class American colonial house. It was set over six acres of land and there was an apple orchard out the back. My dad got me selling the apples to our neighbours at an early age.
When I was a child I wanted to be a performer, ever since I can remember. My spirit has always been in rockn'roll; and, yes, it is everything I thought it would be.
The moment that changed me for ever I was riding a tractor when I was young about five years old and my brother fell off. His injuries resulted in him losing one of his legs. I think everyone has a definitive moment at some point, when you decide you must live every moment to its fullest.
My greatest inspiration My son, in every way. He inspires me to get up in the morning, and in some regards he has made me more careful. Children can balance you out sometimes, which is something I was seriously in need of.
My real-life villain Oprah Winfrey, she rubs me up the wrong way. I just dont believe her. Maybe its because Im not one of the 150 million brainwashed women who heed her every word.
My style icon John Lee Hooker.
If I could change one thing about myself Id change the bimbo attractor chip that God must have placed in me at birth.
At night I dream of In my last dream, my friend [the American hip-hop legend] DMC taught me how to clean my tennis shoes. He explained that he could teach me things about life that I need to know.
What I see when I look in the mirror My father. And my mother (without the boobs).
My favourite item of clothing My hat collection would definitely be up there, but to be practical, I might take my belt buckle over the hat.
I wish Id never worn a whole lot of things. I know exactly why I did wear them I was drunk and not thinking properly.
Its not fashionable but I like free hotel strippers (I mean slippers).
You wouldnt know it but Im very good at giving good advice.
You may not know it but Im no good at taking good advice.
All my money goes on slow cars and fast women, which might be why I still have all my money in the bank.
If I have time to myself Im not very good at being alone. Maybe Ill sit around listening to music, with a cigar but really I just enjoy being with people.
I drive/ride pretty much everything with an engine. I collect cars and bikes. One of my most special rides is a black 1930s Cadillac V16, and then Ive got a few West Coast choppers. These are up there with my favourites.
My house is a colonial-style, southern American farmhouse, set over 50 acres. It has big wrap around porches at the front and a barnyard out back for horses. I wanted to keep it very classic.
My most valuable possession is Im not a greedy man, there really is nothing I couldnt live without. But if there was a fire, and I saved my child and my pets, Id be happy.
My favourite building The Motown Museum in Detroit.
Movie heaven would probably be a comedy, watched in a theatre with some character, not one in a strip mall. But the most important thing is who youre with; whatever youre doing in life, its not where youre at, but the company you keep.
A book that changed me I dont read books. I like to read newspapers and magazines, but Ive never learnt to enjoy books or novels.
My favourite work of art I like the early graffiti writers, the work of the New York cats from the Seventies and Eighties, which I remember from being a kid.
The last album I bought/downloaded I downloaded Southern Rocks Whiskey Falls to my iPod, and Im also a DJ, so I collect vinyl. Theres this big jazz shop in Chicago where I bought a John Lee Hooker record just the other day.
The person who really makes me laugh Chris Rock is a good friend of mine, and he is hysterical. Then theres [the comedian] Dave Chappelle and [the actor and comedian] David Spade; hes king smart ass, he has a retort for everything.
The shop I cant walk past Gruhn Guitars in Nashville, Tennessee.
The best invention ever Electricity, or condoms. Its a toss up.
In 10 years time, I hope to be alive. I havent even decided what Im going to have for tonights dinner yet.
My greatest regret She knows who she is.
My life in seven words Sneezy, Sleepy, Dopey, Doc, Happy, Bashful, Grumpy.
A life in brief
A singer, songwriter and musician, Kid Rock was born Robert James Richie in Detroit, Michigan, on 17 January 1971. He plays several instruments, including the banjo, harmonica and drums, and has sold more than 23 million albums, as well as having an occasional acting career, appearing in CSI: NY and The Simpsons. He hit the headlines in 2001 when it emerged he had been dating Pamela Anderson, whom he later married in 2006, and divorced five months later. The acrimonious split supposedly charged the lyrics in his latest album, the number one hit Rock N Roll Jesus. The first single, All Summer Long, is out now on Atlantic Records. He lives with his 15-year-old son in Charleston, Michigan

cool motherfucker isnt he thats why we love hes like us
ohh yeaa and thanks for this article its great i knew all along and always will know he is such an amazing human being despite what some people may say and the image that he may sometimes portay he has a true heart of gold!
i found this great interview before with kid rock and his dad and some reporter i think its pretty rare cause i was looking for a while for different stuff until i find it but its really good and so is this one!
oh my gaaaawd!
Thanks so much for posting that interview. I think it sums up the person I think him to be. That's the draw with KR...he's the real deal. I totally agree with his view on Oprah...why is the American Public letting her choose our next President...how stupid can they fucking be???
When my friends ask me why I want to meet KR, I tell them...I don't want to meet him, I want to meet Bob Ritchie, and drink a beer with him and shoot the shit. I hope to run into him someday...he only lives about a half hour from me. Don't think he would look too kindly on me banging on the front gates of his house, though.
thanks for the info.
I was impressed that he named all of the 7 dwarfs : ) and also loved his response to his greatest regret. All in all wonderful , truthful, down to earth repsonses, but that desrcibes Kid Rock too.
