What? It’s June, people. It’s very important to stay well-hydrated. Clearly Kid Pebble did not pack enough juice boxes when he partied into the wee hours of the morning at Central London’s Whisky Mist nightclub, because he failed to appear as scheduled on stage at the Download Festival the next day. He had been hospitalized for “dehydration.”

Dehydration was a very serious summer issue in Arizona, where I grew up. We were lectured again and again about the importance of drinking water all day long, and we were always given juice boxes and water bottles wherever we went. And let me tell you, even as small children running around outside all day, we managed to keep ourselves hydrated. I lived in Phoenix, Arizona for twenty-one years and I never knew a single person who was actually hospitalized for dehydration.

I did, however, know plenty of people who were hospitalized for alcohol poisoning and drug overdoses.

I’m just saying.

Oh, and while he was in London, Kid Pebble gave an interview to The Guardian, and he had this to say about his failed relationship with Pamela Anderson: “I touched the stove, it’s fucking hot, I don’t want to touch it any more.”

“When your record sells 50,000 or 60,000 copies, you’re hooking up with bigger women in, like, southern Ohio. Then, 10 million, 15 million, when the sales went up, the girls got prettier.”

Kid Rock, to the London Observer

I guess Tommy Lee decided to be the bigger man here, and asked Clark County police not to press charges against Kid for their Alicia Keys-interrupting VMA fight.

“The Clark County District Attorney’s Office will not pursue a battery charge,” Chief Deputy District Attorney Ron Bloxham tells Extra. “It should be noted that Tommy Lee has requested that there be no prosecution relating to the incident and there were no injuries to either person.”

So basically they’re both lousy fighters.

Kid Rock still faces charges in Atlanta for that little Waffle House incident.

Oops, did I fall asleep writing that headline?

Sorry, it’s just that anything having to do with Kid Pebble is so unbelievably fucking boring to me.

He got arrested at a fucking Waffle House in Atlanta for getting into a fight with some people over what I’m sure is something retarded. Like they didn’t pass the syrup fast enough.

Kid Rock is such a tool. I want him to go away. I’m tired of covering his stupid bullshit.

I mean, seriously, a fist fight at a Waffle House? Why don’t ya’ll just take the car down off the cinderblocks and hit each other over the head with those?

The best part of this whole story is the fabulous graphic that David at Pretty on the Outside has drawn up to go along with the story.

What on earth did we do before blogs?

How did celebrities ever speak their minds?

Tommy Lee wants to tell his story of the fight he had with Kid Rock at the VMAs, so he’s taken to his blog to get the word out. What you need to focus on here are the letters that come in between the super-ellipses. I know all the dots on the page are hard to ignore and very, very important — not to mention grammatically essential — but please try to direct your focus to the actual words.

Okay, am I the only one who feels dumb about actually laughing out loud at Kid Pebble? I’m not sure why I think it’s so funny. It’s not funny in a brilliantly witty way, but it’s funny in an oh-my-God-a-grown-man-and-the-father-of-children-just-said-this kind of way. Also, I love the name-dropping, Tommy. I wish I were cool enough to know George Maloof. Then I could say his name for reason at all, too.

Also, can I get a brief essay from you on why exactly you put an apostrophe in “say’s”? What, exactly, is the apostrophe replacing there? I’m genuinely curious to hear your thoughts on that.

Tommy Lee gave The Insider the following quote about the incident:

“I was minding myself and then he goes and punches me on the cheek,” claims Tommy. “I was trying to be the bigger man, but he was acting childish.”

He added that after Kid came up and punched him, he “was ready to go in the alley and kick his ass. I was about to put Kid in the emergency room when security grabbed me,” says Tommy. “They said, ‘If you move, we will break your arms.’”

Tommy went on to express why Kid probably acted the way he did, saying, “This is what people do when they have shitty albums and their careers are going down the drain.”

Ouch!

(By the way, Tommy Lee’s story is not consistent with what nearby audience members reported seeing.)

Tommy Lee decided to press charges against Kid, who was cited for misdemeanor battery. He will go to court in three to five weeks to enter a plea. The maximum punishment would be a $500 fine and six months in jail.

While she was on stage performing, Tommy Lee and Kid Rock were in the audience doing this.
