Pamela Anderson |
HOLLYWOOD - Kid Rock is tired of the rumors about his relationship with Pamela Anderson, who he's been dating since they met at the VH1 Divas 2001 tribute to Aretha Franklin in New York City this past spring. The latest rumors going around allege that the couple is engaged and that Anderson is pregnant with Kid Rock's kid. According to Launch.com, reps at Lava/Atlantic Records, Kid Rock's label, have denied those rumors."You know what? I'm not even gonna comment on any of that stuff anymore," Kid Rock told the online music publication. "It's just ridiculous...I'll tell you this much: There's not...people that make up a lot of things, and I have no idea where they start at. And I understand my life is public and people have a right to know, but until I say something I don't think anyone has a right to pry. That's why I live in the woods." Well Kid, maybe if you stopped rubbing against Pamela and talking about your bedroom behavior in public, like you did at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, people wouldn't think you were doing that in the woods. Keep it indoors, buddy!
