Kid Rock is being slammed for posting a clip of himself cheering on an Apache helicopter that flew by his home. The clip, which captured a private military flyby, has sparked debate online.

Kid Rock criticized after helicopter stunt

Kid Rock recently posted a video of an apparent private military flyby at his Nashville residence. The clip shows the country music star standing beside a replica of the Statue of Liberty as he waves at an Apache helicopter that hovers near his swimming pool.

The singer shared the video on Instagram with the caption, “This is a level of respect that s**t for brains Governor of California will never know. God Bless America and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend her.”

Shortly after the video went live, multiple netizens took to the comments section, accusing Kid Rock of “wasting thousands of dollars” on what appeared to be a private flyby. Several users described the moment as a “performative” stunt. One user further speculated, “Someone arranged for that helicopter to arrive and held the camera to record Richie doing this.”

Another user penned a sarcastic comment, saying, “I’m so glad that our tax dollars are paying for Kid Rock to have a military fly by,” while others accused the musician of paying the military to pull off “social media stunts.”

A third user fumed, “Who wasted thousands of dollars in fuel, maintenance, and wages to go hover by his pool?” with another stating, “What a waste of taxpayer money. Shameful stuff.”

However, amid the backlash, some netizens have defended Kid Rock and praised the video. One fan of the musician wrote, “This is so bad***,” while another said, “Amazing, love it.”

The controversial video comes just a couple of months after California Governor Gavin Newsom jokingly banned Kid Rock from the state after the musician posted his viral workout video with RFK Jr.
