Oop! Social Media DRAGS Kid Rock For Comments About Michelle Obama Skipping Trump’s Inauguration (VIDEO)
Chile! Kid Rock has landed himself in hot water after his recent comments about Michelle Obama.

Kid Rock Slams Michelle Obama For Skipping Inauguration
The artist made his critiques while speaking to Fox News reporter Jesse Waters. In the circulating video, Rock shared a “reminder” for Michelle Obama about how he came through for Barack Obama in 2008. Kid Rock is one of the incoming administration’s musical acts for inaugural events this weekend, on Monday, and after. Other artists who will be performing include Carrie Underwood, Village People, Billy Ray Cyrus, and even Nelly.
In his follow-up, Waters asked Kid Rock why he believes Michelle had rejected her RSVP. The reporter also pointed out that the other former First Ladies, including Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton, will be in attendance.

Michelle skipping the inauguration will mark the second time this month that she’s missed a presidential event. She also did not attend former President Jimmy Carter’s state funeral in Washington, D.C., last week. Former Presidents Trump, Obama, Bush and Clinton and their spouses attended, though. In fact, Barack and Donnie even went viral for their extra-friendly behavior at the memorial service.

Barack Wishes Michelle A Happy Birthday
While the internet is standing behind Mrs. Obama, so is her husband! No, he hasn’t responded to Kid Rock’s shade. Instead, he took some time on Friday (January 17) to pen a sweet, brief message celebrating her 61st birthday.

Michelle has also chosen not to respond directly to Kid Rock. The former First Lady also has not shared any insight into her birthday festivities via social media.
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Obama! Roommates, swipe below and let us know in the comments which Michelle mood is your favorite!
