They’re both fairly outspoken regarding their political views, and Kid Rock and Sean Penn teamed up for a new short film titled “Americans” where they put aside their differences.

At the outset, Penn finds himself in a bar watching Rock perform at a Mitt Romney rally on television. And once he asks the bartender to change the channel to see President Barack Obama dancing with Ellen DeGeneres, Kid shows up to object.

With another year's tribute to the best in country music having come to a close, the winners of the 2011 CMT Music Awards were named in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday night (June 8).

The Kid Rock hosted event - which was held at Bridgestone Arena - saw Taylor Swift take home the top honor of Video of the Year for "Mine," which was voted on by fans.

He was called onstage to receive an award at an NAACP event in Detroit, MI last night (May 1), but Kid Rock ended up offending some of the audience members.

During an incident in which protesters are calling unacceptable, the “Cowboy” singer took the stage and said, “I love America. I love Detroit, and I love black people,” while using the Confederate Flag as a prop.
