A video showing Kid Rock being escorted off stage following an expletive-filled rant about Oprah Winfrey has surfaced online.
The singer can be heard shouting “F*** Oprah” on the stage of the Nashville bar he owns, adding: “She can suck d*** sideways,” while making lewd gestures.
In the footage obtained by TMZ, he can be heard telling the crowd: “Oprah Winfrey is like, ‘Hey, I just want white women to believe in this s***’ – f*** her.”
One member of the booing crowd can be heard calling the musician “racist”. He’s eventually removed from the stage by security.
Hearing the audience member, Kid Rock said he knows that “weird” people will call him “racist” for attacking Winfrey and revealed what he would tell those individuals if he met them: “Okay fine, f*** off.”

He also launched a scathing attack against The View host Joy Behar.
“I’m not a bad guy – I’m just an honest guy saying I don’t like Oprah Winfrey or Joy Behar. They can suck d*** sideways.”
