Jun 24 2008Ricki Rockett throws a 'Hey, I'm not a rapist!' party
Poison drummer Ricki Rockett was exonerated of charges that he raped a woman in Mississippi after it was determined he was never even in the state at the time of the alleged rape. So, like any classy gent, Rikki is throwing an Exoneration Party and Ride. Though in all fairness, the event will benefit the non-profit group Centurion Ministries which helps vindicate people charged with crimes they didn't commit. Hmm, interesting. I wonder if they cover paternity suits. I mean, DNA might say I'm the father, but that don't prove nothin'.

I will always remember where I was when I found out Ricki Rockett was exonerated

Innocent of rape? Duh! I could have told you that at a glance - he's not black.

Couldn't this putz just make a quiet, anonymous donation and STFU? Nope, he has to act as an arrogant ass munch whose 15 minutes should have been up a long time ago.

@5 - when did the 15 minutes start?
7. Clem - June 24, 2008 9:19 AM
I assume that the woman was charged with being a lying cnut. What's her name? Slags like this need to be outed.

Who would he have raped anyways? Some poor dude? I thought he was gay. And nice fake name; it sounds like a gay porn star name.

Why did he put his age on his chest?

I just saw that he's 46 years old. I guess he and Tommy Lee shop at the same Grranimals boutique. Or the Tony Hawk collection at Kohl's......
Oh and Ricki. Try brushing your tongue too.....

Who is this phuk anyway? And gee, he is lookin' so f-ing cool with that over-the-top mugging pose - what a jag. Posing like some 8-year old in front of a video game sign - yeah, that's how Keith Richard would have done it...if he was GAY!

This is good news, I was worried that the Poison reunion tour would be cancelled. I didn't buy tickets to the Boat Show for nothing..

They should lock that bitch up for as long as he wouldve served if he was convicted of rape.

Ricki,
From the first time I saw you on MTV, I knew your star would shine bright and strong for a very long time. The recent exoneration only shows that this Rocket may be ready to launch, but not without consent! Besides, who wouldn't want Ricki Rocket touching their feminine breasts, their supple lotioned skin, the junction between their legs where a delicate flower of womanhood exists... not the disgusting piece of gristle and ostrich skin I have now... DAMN MY GENITALS! I AM A WOMAN!! I WILL BE A WOMAN, DAMN IT!.
You... in the pit... MORE LOTION NOW!!!
I'd post me!
I'd post me...

Randal, I beg you, please just die

What a tool!
Oh, #12 - the boat show comment was classic!

I don't think there is anything wrong or in bad taste with what he is doing, and I'm a woman. To be accused of something like this has to be absolutely horrific and I don't blame him for wanting to let everyone know he is completely innocent. And then donating the proceedsd to a cause relating to to the incident? I think that's awesome.
I would also like to go on record that Poison sucks.

This turd band is still playing?

This MORON wants attention?

This dude hit on me right in front of his girlfriend in LA. He is so old and rotten looking, it was a joke.

Innocent of rape?

Rikki's real name is Dick Ream, so you can see why he opted for the rock pseudonym. Poison, Dokken & Sebastian Bach are touring together this summer. Thank goodness that hot ticket wasn't derailed.

Hi I am FRIST!!! .. and I am gay.

He may be a giant wad, but he's a giant wad that didn't rape anyone. I'd want that to be in every single paper, magazine or second-rate gossip blog there is, proclaiming my innocence. And he's giving away cash to a good cause, so ... good on him.
