Kid Rock wants to throw down with PETA.  The rock star recently made some comments to England’s Sunday Mail talking about his love of fur.  Wait.  Sidebar: I called Kid Rock a “rock star.”  Is that still accurate?  Is he still popular?  What are The Kids listening today on their Walkmen?  Wasn’t he married to Pamela Anderson?  Is that still happening?  And if he likes fur so much and she’s all super-vegetarian, what’s that all about?  Did he ever have a song other than the “Bad Wid Da Ba,” or whatever it was called?  I just did some research on the guy, and the phrase “iconic American rocker” came up.  That can’t be right, can it?

I’m sorry.  I get distracted easily.  Anyhow, Kid Rock.  Sunday Mail.  Via The Superficial (yes, I’m actually quoting The Superficial):

I want to go to war with PETA. My biggest extravagance is fur coats — I’ve got every kind of animal in my wardrobe.”  The rocker also slams PETA’s activism tactics — which have included throwing red paint on fur-wearing stars — and urges the group to try the same protest with him.  He adds: “I’m just willing the animal rights protesters to chuck some red paint on me.

Ohhhhhhh snap!  Kid Rock is challenging PETA to throw red paint on him. That’s bold, my friend, because, you know, they’ll actually do it.  If you’re on PETA’s side of this issue (without the attitude) you can takepart to sign an online petition asking amazon.com to stop selling fur.  It’d be a good way to make a great site better.
