Kellie Pickler's Dad Busted Again!

Posted May 22nd 2007 4:00PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has obtained the mugshot of Clyde "Bo" Pickler Jr., father of "American Idol" Kellie Pickler, who was arrested (again) recently on several larceny charges.

Bo Pickler was allegedly stealing old, run-down cars and taking them to salvage yards to sell them. Pickler has been charged with three felony charges of stealing a motor vehicle, and one charge of obtaining property through false pretenses. He is being held on a $26,000 bond in the Stanly County Jail.

Papa Pickler was released from a Florida prison in 2006, after serving a three-year sentence for stabbing his neighbor. Kellie was a presenter on the 2007 CMT Music Awards.

61. If you are going to tag every person whose parents are stupid, ugly or just plain dumb, your list would go on forever. Best example: Rudy Guiliani. His dad was a small time hood who served time. That made Rudy want to become a better person, and he did. I'm not a Kelli fan, but JeezLouise.....get over the dirt slinging and listen to the singing!

62. #34, your comment was so totally incorrect. Carries CD has sold more, faster than any county CD. This was printed in the country music magazines. get your facts before opening mouth (or in this case, computer/keyboard). Comparing Kellie to Carrie is rediculous. That would be like comparing Bo Bice to Chris Daughtry. (Chris being soooo much better, just look at the concerts and CD sales). I like Carrie and Kellie both but they sing different kinds of country music

63. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU GO KELLY THINKS THAT KELLY PICKLER IS BETTER THAN CARRIE UNDERWOOD!!! ARE YOU DEAF OR JUST TONE DEAF? KELLY HAS TURNED SO FAKE SINCE SHE LEFT AMERICAN IDOL AND CARRIE HAS STAYED REAL.

64. Why does all of America have to know what's going on with Pickler's dad?? I mean, she's very talented and if she's been able to rise above having an idiot for a dad, why does it need to be advertised?? Can't people just get a life and let people live their life?!

66. The father is white-trash and TMZ is trash for putting this on the internet. Let the girl deal with it on her own.

68. How stupid can the public be.If you have never been to the part of NC that Kellie is from then keep your mouth shut.She is not a fake,the way she talks and acts is just the way the people talk and act from Albermare NC and actually does better with her talk than the locals do.

So leave her alone..

71. people should really stop & think about things they say, before they say them. kellie has a great granddaddy, that has brought her this far & im sure they will do just fine , with or without her dad in her life. i like kellie for kellie, not for what her dad does or repesents. im sure we all have someone in our family thats not perfect, so kellie keep your chin up & take what has been given to you &enjoy.
