Kid Rock received The Great Expectations Award on Sunday from the NAACP. I’ll pause here to let that sit for a moment. Continuing, I went to NAACP‘s website to find out what this award is for and I couldn’t find any info on it. Maybe its because they’re not really interested in publicizing the fact that they gave this idiot an award, or maybe its the fact that I spend about 15 seconds looking for it, but according to a Billboard story there has been some controversy voiced by civil rights activists over giving him this award due to his use of the Confederate flag, of which he has been unapologetic. At any rate, while accepting the award he triumphantly stated:
I love America, I love Detroit and I love black people!
Yeah! See Everybody? He even posed with Star Jones to prove that he not only loves black people, but he also loves people who other people can barely tolerate at all! I’ll be honest, I’ve never liked Kid Rock, but how can I deny this champion of diversity. Its almost like he’s washed away the shame and embarrassment of a couple hundred years of enslavement and discrimination with a throw-away crowd pleasing line and a photo-op. I can finally say goodbye to white guilt and start calling black people my nig— wait, nevermind.
*note* Kid Rock did donate $100,000 to charities that benefit Detroit organizations and victims of the recent tornado disasters, so that’s commendable, but it doesn’t make up for his continued use of those hats.

The Superficial is in Vacation Mode this week. Normal posting resumes Monday, May 9.
I bet he especially loves them in the ass.
It’s nice to know that PB gets up much ealier than Fish.
Agreed. Fish is apparently lazy as hell because I’m on the West Coast and I’m up before Fish posts.
Kid Rock banged Jaime Pressly and Pam Anderson. He has more hepatitis in his little finger than most cities have.
When was the last time this asshole came out with a record?
Agreed, why is this fossil still being followed by media?
They follow him just in case he gets wasted and starts a fight at an awards show or gala.
“Born Free” released 2010.
When was the last time YOU came out with one, bitch?
Nice hat, Gomer.
“I see black people.”
MY NAME IS GRAAAAAMMMMMMMPAAAA!!
LOL! I know, right? Try telling my daughter this guy and EMINEM are MY age!
But Eminem must moisturize or some **** , cuz he dont look as old as “Kid” Rock. Damn!
The young man with him is his son, who is half black.
Photo Boy shows us photos of the irrelevant & unattractive.
Just like “Fish”.
I have always thought that Kid Rock seemed like a pretty hard worker.
Maybe I have just been taught to think that somehow – but I really think that.
If he really loved black people, he’d be wearing a snazzy looking derby, instead of that soup line helmet.
So Kid Rock is dating Evo Morales’ gay son? … Who is that guy?
I still really don’t understand what a confederate flag has to do on Detroit, Michigan. I don’t know this guy bio but I think he is raised and born on Detroit as he always brag about his hometown, so it’s still a mystery for me this confederate flag business.
I’m not from the USA by the way but I know a little of it’s history to know that the confederate flag was used by the southern states during the civil war. Is not Detroit really far away from the south to justify that flag?
It reminds me of the time he led the states rights vs federal rights symposium for my graduate seminar. Listen to his music. There are deep answers hidden within the grandstanding and machoism.
lolwut? he’s a prof?
The hat looks even better when he removes his dentures…
Uhm sorry but I find that belt and tie to be racist.
Ugliest man ever.
PB, you couldn’t find anything on the Great Expectations award on the national NAACP site because the award is a product solely of the NAACP’s Detroit chapter. Which is not to say that there’s anything about the award on the Detroit chapter’s website, either.
The site runs on CPT – give it a few months
Score.
So Kid Rock donates $100,000 to “Detroit charities” and gets an award from the Detroid NAACP? I guess the “Great Expectations” award was the highest honor he could afford to buy. I wonder what I could get for $20? Maybe the “Needs Improvement” award, or “Plays Well With Others”?
Take away the expensive clothes, he’s just another creep that sells 40′s at the am/pm and masturbates in public restrooms.
haHAHH perfect
Wow, look at all those wrinkles. This guy is talentless white trash anyway.
Well if he loves Detroit then God bless him because nobody else does and if you’re from Detroit then fuck you too because this is THE SUPERFICIAL and we don’t have to be nice so fuck you. New Orleans!
“…and to prove it I wore Al Roker’s suit and hat.”
Beats the fuck out of him saying the opposite. Wish I had that kind of cash to drop on a cause.. you go Kid Rock.
Hmmm…someone’s gastric bypass is starting to lose its effectiveness…
Black People: Shit we spelled “Chris” wrong.
White Power!…I mean Black Power!…I mean, um, Power!
