Kid Rock Stuns BBC Presenter With His Gross And Cringey Attempt At Flirting During Live Interview

An interview with musician Kid Rock went off the rails when he flirted with BBC News presenter Caitríona Perry, who was justifiably at a loss for words when he asked her out on a date during the live broadcast.

Rock, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, is a major supporter and friend of Republican President Donald Trump.

He performed at the Make America Great Again Rally held at Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. on Sunday ahead of Trump's inauguration on January 20.

During his interview with the BBC's chief presenter in D.C., the 54-year-old MAGA supporter was asked what he was looking forward to seeing most at the inauguration.

However, things took an awkward turn when Ritchie asked Perry where she was conducting their interview from.

“I’m standing on a rooftop in these very very chilly conditions. We’ll be on air for 12 hours so I don’t think I’ll have anywhere near as fun a day as you have planned for yourself!” she replied.

Ritchie responded by saying that he couldn't see Perry and, therefore, had no idea what she looked like.

Perry replied:

“I look like I’m ready to hit the slopes, I can tell you."

"I’m in full-on ski gear here with my hat, gloves, the whole thing, ready to rock because you’ve got to be wrapped up against the elements don’t you."

Ritchie then commented:

“I love to go skiing. You sound sexy, you want to go with me?”

Here's a clip from the interview.

His invitation threw Perry, and she was speechless before managing to articulate a response.

“Well, we won’t get into that right here,” she eventually replied and maintained she was all business for the time being.

“We’re doing no skiing here, we’ve got a day of broadcasting to do," said Perry.

Appalled internet users weighed in on Ritchie's cringe interview.

Others weren't surprised by Ritchie's lack of class.

Perry was admired for moving things along expertly.

The "Bawitdaba" singer recently shared that the then-president-elect had reached out to him to clarify a joke he had heard regarding the Secret Service and strippers.

“Friday morning I got a call from the President and [Trump’s spouse] Melania and it was kind of mind-blowing, I’ve tried to leave him alone, he’s got a lot on his plate, I would think, right now,” Kid Rock said, adding:

“He called and he goes, ‘Did the Secret Service really tell you that you can’t use strippers?’”

Ritchie confirmed that the Secret Service planning to ban strippers at a rally in D.C. was a joke, to which Trump allegedly replied, "Ah, that's funny."

The private phone call also allegedly covered a discussion about moving the location of the inauguration to inside the Capitol Rotunda, with the musician's input, in anticipation of the chilly temperatures expected that day.
