Kid Rock: 'I Don't Understand Rehab' Add to My Fav Bands List

Kid Rock has admitted that he doesn't understand why celebrities enter rehab.

But, in the same interview, the musician also revealed that he had been to anger management therapy twice.

Last year the singer was given a year's probation and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine following a fight in a waffle house in Atlanta.

"I do not understand rehab. If it works for people then God bless them. People have different personalities,” Rock told Q Magazine.

"Some people do a line of cocaine and start selling their TVs and their guitar and everything else. Other people do it, have a fun night and go about their business."

Speaking about his anger management problems, Rock said: “After the first session the lady was like, 'Baby, you don't seem that angry at all. You seem like a really nice guy.'

“I go, 'That's the way I feel too. I think that the judge made a mistake when he sentenced me. I think he probably should have sent me to Alcoholics Anonymous because I do have a drinking problem.'

"None of these fights would have ever occurred without drinking."

  • kid rock may have a drinking problem,but America has a high strung and over intrusive problem.Over the last 28 years in this country, nobody can mind thier own buisness ,work out thier own problems or tolerate anything that does not go along with thier vision on how to live your life.Everybody's got to have a support group,therapy,a twelve step program,medication,no space to sort things out.America the sad.
