From Reuters:
Rap-rocker Kid Rock has convinced a federal judge in Detroit to block a California company from selling or promoting a video showing him and former Creed singer Scott Stapp having sex with four women after a Miami concert.
The temporary restraining order issued on Tuesday by U.S. District Court Judge John Feikens bars World Wide Red Light District, which released the Paris Hilton sex tape, from selling the video or using Kid Rock's likeness in its promotions.
Feikens set a hearing for Friday in Detroit to hear arguments in the case.
Attorneys for Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, said they will ask for a permanent injunction against sales of the sex tape, arguing that their client's trademark and privacy rights had been violated.
The tape in question was made around the time that Stapp, 32, and Kid Rock, 35, played a concert together at the Orange Bowl in December 1999, said Michael Novak, an attorney for Kid Rock.
World Wide Red Light District had posted a preview of the tape on its Web site, saying it obtained the tape from an unidentified third party. The tape shows the two performers with four strippers in a tour bus.
A representative of World Wide Red Light District could not be immediately reached for comment.
Novak said the tape was apparently stolen from Stapp, who was on his honeymoon when the controversy over the 6-year-old sex tapes erupted this month. "This is stolen property," he said, adding "nobody's quite certain of the order of events."
There is a legal precedent for a celebrity being granted a court order to bar the release of such a tape. Kid Rock does not dispute that the video is authentic, Novak said.
In 1998, former Poison singer Bret Michaels won an injunction in federal court against a Seattle company from distributing a sex video he had made with actress Pamela Anderson.
"It sounds like we are trying to make new law here and we are really not," Novak said.
An attorney for Stapp could not be immediately reached for comment.
Stapp, who married former Miss New York Jaclyn Nesheiwat in Miami this month, was arrested at the Los Angeles airport for public drunkenness en route to a Hawaii honeymoon.

Avengerkillerof - 2/27/2006 10:24:22 AM Let's be honest, neither of these guys has a career at this point and when they did it was trend following. Stapp's solo effort is dead in the water (wow, I'm surprised, watch for a Creed reunion) Kid Rock even went country after being a Nu-Metal pimp de jour, both efforts lasted 10 minutes. None of these guys ever brought anything real to the table, they're both novelty acts. They need gimmicks like this to stay in the music press. You don't want stuff like this out there? Don't film it, idiots.

VicRattlehead502 - 2/27/2006 8:48:01 AM True story: Scott Stapp's real name is Anthony. He goes by his middle name... which makes his initials... A.S.S.

fizzgig - 2/25/2006 3:21:19 PM Get a load of the Rolling Stone article about Mr. Stapp. Seems like his bad behavior was worse than we might have figured even while he was selling millions of records to sheep. Best quote: "I was just a messed-up kid who fell back on his faith ..." HAHAHAAAA! You're too old for that shit, Scott!
