Litigous Former Employee of the Insane Clown Posse Subpoenas Kid Rock’s D*ldo
You may recall the story of Andrea Pellegrini, a former employee for ICP’s label, Psychopathic Records, who is now suing the outfit. The cause of her legal action? She says that one of her co-workers, “Dirty Dan” Diamond, sexually harassed her. Amongst Dirty Dan’s dirty deeds: giving Pellegrini, and other women at the label, dildos as gifts. Pellegrini asserts that when she complained to her superiors, she was let go, which isn’t hard to believe.
Somewhat harder to believe, though: Pellegrini has now subpoenaed one of those dildos… which may or may not currently be in the possession of one Mr. Bob Ritchie, better known to the world as “Dumb Shit White Trash” “Kid Rock.” According to the Detroit Free Press, Pellegrini’s attorneys want the dildo to use as evidence:
“During Diamond’s deposition last Friday in Las Vegas, he testified that he attempted to give Andrea (Andy) Pellegrini the phallic object, but she refused to accept it, according to a press release Monday from Pellegrini’s attorneys. Diamond then gave the piece to Kid Rock, the release said.
“The subpoena, filed by the Royal Oak-based Rasor Law Firm, states Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, has 14 days to respond and produce the item.”
Pellegrini left Psychopathic at some point in 2012, which means that her lawyers are banking on Kid Rock still having this specific present two years later. And, hey, I have no idea how many dildos Kid Rock owns, or if people give him sex toys on a routine basis, or what his relationship with Dirty Dan is… I guess it’s possible he still has the thing. But I wouldn’t be surprised if his reaction to the subpoena is something to the effect of, “Huh?!?!”
Given that Diamond has already admitted he attempted to gift the dildo to Pellegrini, I’m not really sure why it needs to be physically produced anyway — I mean, it doesn’t seem like anyone is denying that this happened. The question is whether or not Pellegrini’s objection is what got her canned. But whatever. So long as this ends badly for ICP, I’ll be satisfied. If something bad could happen to Kid Rock, too, that’d be swell.
