Red Hot Chili Peppers Frontman Anthony Kiedis Made His Dad Cry
How do you celebrate great news? Red Hot Chili Peppers lead singer Anthony Kiedis celebrates by making his Dad cry. The band was recently informed of their pending induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; an unusual feat since the band continues to be very active. In face, they are currently touring Europe in support of their latest release 'I'm With You'. Rolling Stone caught up with Kiedis to find out how he reacted to the news.
"I called my dad," says the singer. "I told him that he couldn't say anything because it hadn't been publicly announced yet. I know my dad is a big Internet freak, and he's been known to be a Wikileaker. I was like, 'Dad, you and I are blood. I'm going to tell you something, but you can't tell anybody.' I guess it's just something that you want to share with the people that you're closest to, like family and longtime friends. My dad cried."
