Kellie Pickler, Kid Rock Dating?

Kellie PicklerKellie Pickler has a new Rock of love, and it’s not Bret Michaels, according to a report in SFGate's Daily Dish. The former “American Idol” star talked in a radio interview about a long-term romance, but didn’t specifically name Kid Rock.

"I'm seeing someone. I got a man. He's a great, great guy. We've been seeing each other for over a year," said Pickler.

Kid Rock (also known as Robert Ritchie) and Pickler became close when the pair headlined the U.S.O. Holliday tour together in Afghanistan in 2008. Sources are saying the relationship is “the worst kept secret in Nashville.”

The Grammy nominated rocker has developed somewhat of a reputation after being married to Pamela Anderson and briefly dating Sheryl Crow, but his new girlfriend isn’t intimidated. Pickler is no stranger to bad boys, considering her father’s multiple run-ins with the law.

And Rock is no kid. As a matter of fact, he is 15 years older than the 23 year-old singer songwriter. Time will tell how long the beautiful singer who finished in sixth place on her season of “Idol” will continue to occupy the number one spot in Kid Rock’s heart.

Such a nice kid. Had high hopes for her personal life. Sad, very sad. This will be a train wreck.

I actually think this sounds like a good match. Just because his last realtionship was a trainwreck doesn't mean this one will be and if the rumors are true and they have been together for over a year all the power to them

This is old news, but it's not about Kid Rock! The person Kellie was referring to about secretly dating for over a year, which some people said was the worst kept secret in Nashville, is Kyle Jacobs, a Nashville songwriter. Someone erroneously, purposefully or accidentally, said it was Kid Rock and this dumb rumor has spread like wildfire... hilarious.

Kellie, no/no/no--honestly, what are you thinking? Find a hometown boy who will be there for you in 50 years.

Kid Rock, both at Sturgis, meaningful long term relationship. If it weren't for Jesse James and Sandra Bullock still being together I'd say "Ya, right, are you kidding me?" But I guess nothings impossible (Highly unlikely, yes).

I can't believe it? I thought she wasn't a Dumb Blonde, like Simon & Randy acted. She was doing so well on T.V. also? She could have her pick-Trust me. She's hot! Oh Well, he'll just ruin her rep. too.

I like Kellie, but Kid Rock? I am not sure about him. But, there is a saying that love is blind. So, good luck to both of them. Hope she she won't be so blind and ended in broken heart. Just saying.
