Howard Stern talks about Kid Rock and Travis Treat’s backlash against transgender people Dylan Mulvaney collaborated with Anheuser-Busch To promote the brand’s Easy Carry contest.

“I thought there must be a missing part of this story,” said the host. His SiriusXM radio show On Monday (10 April). “I’m not bothered by gays or transgender people. They don’t affect my life, they don’t hurt my life. I love when people are in love. Do you want to be a woman? Be a woman. Do you want to be a man, be a man. Be who you want to be.” As long as you don’t hurt anyone, I’m on your team.”

Stern’s thoughts come a week after Rock posted a video to his social media accounts wearing a white MAGA hat. “Grandpa is feeling a little upset today,” he shared, adding that he wanted to make his message “as clear and concise as possible.” Then he fired a semi-auto shotgun at three Bud Light cans, telling the camera, “F— Bud Light and f— Anheuser-Busch.”

Meanwhile, Tritt shared a series of tweets announcing that he would no longer work with Anheuser-Busch and remove all of the company’s products from his hospitality rider. The singer claimed, “I know many other artists who do the same thing.”

“I wish I could call Kid Rock and have him come to the show and just say to me ‘Why are you upset about this? How does it hurt?’ I don’t know why he got so upset,” Stern continued. “Kid Rock, I know him. He has a wonderful life. He’s gone from a Michigan kid to a rock star! I’m really surprised why someone would care so much that they’d blow up a can of Bud Lite and say, “F – Anheuser-Busch.” i don’t get it.”

Stern added that Rock himself is “brilliant in his own way”, often wearing a “feather boa, maybe a mink coat” on his show when he joins as a guest. “I feel like Kid Rock, his songs are about living life the way you want it to be, ‘I do my own thing man and — you if you ain’t with me,’” he continued, turning his thoughts to Tritt. Travis Tritt’s statement was, “Other artists who omit Anheuser-Busch products of the hospitality rider may not say it publicly for fear of ridicule and disqualification. I have no such fear. I’d like to interview the guy. I come from a place of, “Why do you bother so much?”

In a statement received painting Since the controversy, an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson said: “Anheuser-Busch works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of several ways to authentically connect with audiences across different demographics. From time to time, we produce unique keepsake boxes for fans and brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney.
