The Army is investigating after musician Kid Rock posted video showing Apache helicopters hovering around his Nashville-area home.

A spokesperson for the 101st Airborne Division told CNN in a statement that the Army is aware of video that appears to show AH‑64 Apache helicopters operating near a private residence in the Nashville area.

“An administrative review is underway to assess the mission and verify compliance with regulations and airspace requirements,” Maj. Jonathon Bless said. “Appropriate action will be taken if any violations are found.”

 

In a stunning display of military precision and good judgment, the Army has launched a high-stakes "administrative review" after Kid Rock—Nashville’s unofficial Southern White House host—posted videos of Apache helicopters buzzing his backyard pool party. Because nothing says “strict safety standards” like war machines swirling inches from a celebrity’s tanning lounger while he strikes his best rock-star salute, prompting the 101st Airborne Division to scrutinize not just airspace regulations but presumably the delicate balance between national defense and personal vanity. Meanwhile, the Creative Artists Agency sits silently in the wings, presumably crafting a statement that artfully bridges the gap between “appropriately serious military inquiry” and “Hey, it’s just Kid Rock doing kid-rock things.”
