Perez Hilton reports that Rock appeared on The Mikey Morning Show on Rock 105.3 in San Diego on Thursday, and dished over the fisticuffs and why it all went down.
Hilton got hold of transcripts from the radio exchange:
Regarding Spears, Kid Rock had withering comments for MTV: "How does MTV do that, with like, is there some sort of special editing or camera filters they use, how do they make like Britney Spears look overweight and like she’s lip-synching like that? That was incredible."
Kid blamed MTV for "not liking black people," regarding the lack of awards for Kanye.
Regarding Tommy's blog, Rock said, "I really can’t say a lot about it, my attorneys told me not to obviously, but I think there’s enough eyewitnesses there to say what happened and of course he has a different story which makes perfect sense."
Kid mocked the very fact Lee was even at the event at all: "To even be in the same room it’s kinda like, I was trying to figure out why is this whatever, 45 year old man, who’s not involved with the show, who doesn’t have an album coming out, who has nothing to promote, even sitting through this garbage.
Like... I go to those things because I have my album coming out October 9th... I think it’s the best record I’ve done so I’m trying to promote that. Other than that I don’t want to go sit through Britney spears lip-syncing and some kid dancing and lip-synching.
...so I’m trying to figure out what this guy’s doing there, I ...let that go. And then when I came back from the bathroom he’s pretty much sitting in my seat, I’m like that’s it. He’s sitting right next to it yea.
Then Kid answered the DJ's question as to what his plan of action was:"No. Bitch Slap, Pow."
Kid cited five years of antagonism between him and Lee. "By the way it kills me just to be associated with, to have my name in a sentence with him, it honestly destroys me...Last contact I had with this loser, was when me and Pam were going through our divorce he picks up her email and starts emailing me how much of a bitch I am, and this, that and the other, and I calmly told him...listen I will see you again, ...you know this has nothing to do with you, and that was the end of it because I don’t talk you know.
He used her blackberry. It just starts going off, like he’s king. I’m like you know, you’ve seen me plenty of times. It’s always something, it’s always an excuse. And this would be a great opportunity for him to go, ‘you know what, I did run my mouth, I’m going to be a man about it, take my lumps, and now I’m gonna shut up and it’s over’, but I’m sure he’s not that smart."
Kid says divorcing Pam was the best thing that ever happened to him. "In hindsight you can never tell anyone anything about love, but I went through what I went through, and there’s no doubt it wasn’t love, we went through all these things, but then coming out of it pretty much unscathed, after uprooting my son and a lot of things, it’s like thank God I’m out of this, it had zero to do with her. Of course she’ll tell everyone she was the victim in it, like always. ‘I’m the victim, I’m the victim!’"
