Kid Rock Called Out Michelle Obama For Skipping Donald Trump’s Inauguration

Speaking with Fox News’ Jesse Watters on Thursday, the rock musician tore into the former first lady and implied her absence was disrespectful of Trump. 

“I would kindly remind her that years back when [President Barack] Obama was first elected, I did not vote for him, but they asked me to play the inauguration,” he said. “And I played it and I went, had a good time. I went out of respect for the presidency, so I would kindly remind Ms. Michelle about that.”

Kid Rock, who has been outspoken about his conservative views, was referring to his performance at the 2009 Youth Inaugural Ball, held after Barack Obama’s first swearing-in. Kanye West and Fall Out Boy were among the other music acts at that event.
