While we’re approaching the end of 2019, it’s not too late to squeeze in a fresh celebrity feud, right? Enter Kid Rock<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

TMZ<\/a> recently posted a video of the singer holding a near-empty beer cup and ranting onstage about Oprah Winfrey<\/a><\/strong>, saying “F–k Oprah!” and addressing accusations of racism. The outlet said the incident occurred at his bar, Kid Rock’s Big Honky Tonk & Steakhouse, in Nashville last week, and that security escorted him offstage after his tirade.<\/p>\n

“My people tried to get me to do The Oprah Winfrey Show<\/em> years ago and her people wanted me to write down 5 reasons why I loved her and her show,” Kid Rock tweeted<\/a> on Friday. “I said f–k that and her. End of story.”<\/p>\n

Winfrey has not commented publicly about Kid Rock’s onstage tirade or tweet.<\/p>\n

During his tirade, Kid Rock makes a crude sexual comment directed at both Winfrey and The View<\/em>‘sJoy Behar<\/a><\/strong>, with whom he feuded last year<\/a>. He also takes aim at fellow TV personality Kathy Lee Gifford<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“F–k Oprah Winfrey,” he said, drawing cheers. “F–k Kathy Lee Gifford.”<\/p>\n

“I’m not a bad guy,” he said. “I’m just an honest guy that says, hey, I don’t like Oprah Winfrey or Joy Behar.”<\/p>\n

He also shrugged off accusations of being racist.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“[People say] ‘Hey, you’re f–king racist.’ I’m like, ‘You’re f–king weird,'” he said. “You call your people, I’ll call mine.”<\/p>\n

“Oprah Winfrey’s like, ‘Hey, I’m gonna get some white women to believe in this shit I’m- f–k her,” he said. “And if you say that, you’re like, ‘Hey, well, pretty sure Kid Rock’s a racist.’ I’m like, OK fine. F–k off sideways…I’m not the bad guy in this equation. I’m the f–kin’ guy you want, like, ‘Hey, he’s pretty cool.'”<\/p>\n

Kid Rock has had beef with Winfrey for years; In 2008, he told the UK newspaper The Independent<\/a><\/em> that the TV mogul was his “real-life villain,” adding, “Oprah Winfrey, she rubs me up the wrong way. I just don’t believe her. Maybe it’s because I’m not one of the 150 million brainwashed women who heed her every word.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
