Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

I just need to say that he should be called Grampa Rock now.

He looks rough

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Looks like Grandpa Meth Rock now, I mean, he’s always looked like a Meth Head, but ya

[–] LostCarcosan@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You don't have to insult meth rock like that. 7horse doesn't deserve that

...probably. Shit, I hate that I have to do background checks on weird artists now

Milli Vanilli performing at a maga festival is just perfect. AFAIK the German guy is dead already, which leaves the French guy to lipsync to someone else’s singing. Or did they find someone else to complete the duo again? Maybe a Scotsman this time?

Sadly I think they also bowed out. I was looking forward to it being just Vanilla Ice and Milli Vanilli because that would match the current level of poorly-aged cringe in the US.

I think Milli Vanilli considering the gig beneath them is even more delicious.

One would think that he is most embarrassed that he looks like that now

I’m 47, but I look almost identical to how I looked when I was in my mid 20s. (I realize that I am exceptionally lucky, but he’s extremely rich, and has access to plastic surgeons and such)

He looks like shit

If you haven’t read this classic - read it now. It’s . . . well. Just read it.

It’s worth mentioning these are not the only times Ritchie drops the n-word during my visit. It’d be easy to label this as the rantings of a drunk racist, but as with everything that Ritchie does, it’s hard to know how calculated it all is. Is he just trying to get a reaction? Is he begging to be pilloried when this story comes out so he can launch into a very public tirade against “cancel culture”? Is this all just a play for more attention? Would any of that make it less shitty? 

The strange thing is, despite his rhetoric, Ritchie’s politics aren’t uniformly regressive. He considers himself socially liberal. And the longer we argue, the more I can see the faint outlines of reasonable stances on things like immigration, government regulation of corporations, and tax policy. But here’s the thing: Nobody will ever hear any of that over the shouting, the name-calling, and all of his other attention-grabbing bullshit. I don’t think he really cares because the shouting, the name-calling, and the attention-grabbing bullshit are who he is now. It’s as if the blurry line between Kid Rock and Bob Ritchie has disappeared entirely.

It’s textbook alcoholism. Super simple.

I didn’t realize it until I got into the second paragraph, but I read this when it was originally published.

It is exactly as upsetting as when I read it originally.

The Rolling Stone is an extraordinary publication.

At this rate, the headliner will be one of Iskanka's kids hooting out "Hot Cross Buns" on an out-of-tune clarinet.
