Kid Rock Subpoenaed To Produce Glass Dildo As Evidence In Insane Clown Posse Lawsuit
Well, this is probably the classiest story on the music internet this morning. Andrea Pellegrini, a former publicist for the Insane Clown Posse, is suing the Detroit duo for sexual harassment, and among other allegations (e.g., the 2012 Gathering Of The Juggalos was “a living hell”) she claims that the former ICP and Psychopathic Records employee “Dirty Dan” Diamond tried to give her a glass dildo as a gift once. When she refused to accept it, Pellegrini claims that Diamond gave the, um, item to Kid Rock, who apparently still has possession of it. The Detroit Free Press reports that Pellegrini’s attorneys have subpoenaed Kid Rock, telling him to give up the glass dildo so that they can use it as evidence. Beyond the obvious troubling-if-true harrassment allegations, this whole thing raises some questions. For instance: Isn’t it bad etiquette to give someone a gift after someone else has already turned it down? Kid Rock appeared on ICP’s first album Carnival Of Carnage 22 years ago! Doesn’t he deserve his own glass dildo? Also, how’s Kid Rock even supposed to find the dildo in what’s sure to be an extensive glass dildo collection? I hope he’s got them all clearly labeled.
UPDATE: Kid Rock responds.
