The 46-year-old musician – who is a dedicated supporter of US President Donald Trump – has revealed his plans to turn to politics.
He shared a mocked up picture of a campaign sign on Twitter which said “Kid Rock For US Senate” and wrote: “I have had a ton of emails and texts asking me if this website is real… kidrockforsenate.com. The answer is an absolute YES.
“Stay tuned, I will have a major announcement in the near future – Kid Rock.”
The website features a number of signs with different slogans, including “Welcome To The Party”, “Born Free”, “Party To The People”, “I’ll Rock The Party”, and “You Never Met A Politician Quite Like Me”.
However, Kid – whose real name is Robert James Ritchie – has not yet filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission (FEC), so his bid is not official.
Kid Rock is not the only star who is interested in a political career and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson recently revealed he is considering a run for US President in 2020.
He wrote on Instagram: “The idea of one day becoming President to create real positive impact and global change is very alluring.”
And he added: “A year ago, it started coming up more and more. There was a real sense of earnestness, which made me go home and think, ‘Let me really rethink my answer and make sure I am giving an answer that is truthful and also respectful’. I didn’t want to be flippant – ‘We’ll have three days off for a weekend! No taxes!'”
