Detroit Auto Show: Kid Rock Bringin' Sex Rhymes to GM Style Event Next Weekend in Detroit

Looks like in addition to the A-list, B-list and C-list music names the General's throwin' down at the GM Style event next Saturday night prior to the Detroit Auto Show, they'll also have a D-list entertainer in the house. "D" as in D-etroit. Ha! We slay ourselves...and pretty much only ourselves. Yes, GM's bringing Metro Detroit's child rocker, Kid Rock, to the Style event to add to performances by Mary J. Blige, DJ Samantha Ronson and Maroon 5. We'll be there live — earplugs in hand — as we're told there will also be some cars on stage. So join us at the Detroit Auto Show tag throughout the next week as we get ready for the Detroit Auto Show and all next weekend as we cover it live. Full press release from GM after the jump. More »

Also, Maroon 5 will be joining the already announced Mary J. Blige in the non-auto portion of the show. But who really cares about that? Full press release after the jump. More »

All Tomorrow's Parties: GM Announces Details of GM Style Event

For those who don't remember from last year's coverage, one of the biggest parties at the Detroit Auto Show is the GM Style event, which is an orgy of celeb product placement. Last year it was John Legend and Jennifer Hudson coupled with the Camaro Concept and an Escalade, and this year it looks like it'll be Mary J. Blige and the Chevy Beat, maybe, which is fine by us. We've got pictures from last year below, as well as the press release. I hope we get to meet Christian Slater. That guy was great in Kuffs. More »
