Kid Rock's Army Chopper Ride: Patriotic Energy Rolling

0:00It's April 28th. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News today, AI-powered stories from the spotlight. Kid Rock just took a wild ride in an army of patchy helicopter alongside Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth this past Monday. This comes right after that backyard flyover drama at his Nashville area spot, where pilots buzzed over his pool and sparked some serious heat. The chopper hop was all part of a Freedom 250th community relations push. Rock linked up with troops, shot videos from Memorial Day and America's 250th birthday bash, plus clips for his own Freedom 200th. Fiftyth tour, officials say it was his way to big up the service members and their grind. A few weeks back, late last month, Rock dropped a video of the flyover on social media, even throwing shade at California Governor Gavin Newsom while saluting the pilots. That clip blew up, leading to backlash over whether it broke protocol. He brass hit Paul's quick, suspending those pilots pending a full review.
