Kid Rock just got the most attention he’s received in years.
In a “Rolling Stone” interview, the rocker/rapper seemed confused by Beyonce’s popularity.
“Beyoncé, to me, doesn’t have a f—ing ‘Purple Rain,’” he said, referencing Prince’s iconic 1984 album, widely considered his masterpiece, “but she’s the biggest thing on Earth.”
“How can you be that big without at least one ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ or ‘Old Time Rock & Roll’?” he added. “People are like, ‘Beyoncé’s hot. Got a nice fucking a–.’ I’m like, ‘Cool, I like skinny white chicks with big t–s.’ Doesn’t really f—ing do much for me.”
Welp. The Beyhive doesn’t like it when people go in on their Queen Bey. So, they swarmed his Instagram page.
