Kid Rock Pays off Walmart Layaways for 350 Families The gesture comes days after Tyler Perry dropped more than $400,000 to help families at
two Walmarts near Atlanta. Rock acknowledged Perry in a tweet, saying he followed the 'Madea'
star's lead. Rock forked over $81,000 to cover 350 accounts at the retailer in Nashville. Each person who benefited was also given a card that read, “Merry Christmas from your neighbor! -Kid Rock.” According to the store's manager, Rock first called in explaining he wanted to spread some holiday cheer. The 47-year-old "Only God Knows Why" singer's manager then stopped in to make the generous payment.
