Anthony Kiedis, the frontman of Red Hot Chilli Peppers is one more celebrity that got caught up in BJJ. The super famous singer is completely hooked, recently stating on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast (where else) that “he can’t get enough of Jiu-Jitsu”.

It is no secret that Anthony Kiedis is a big fan of the UFC, and cameras often single him out of the crowd during events. But the 59-year-old has also trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and he started because of his son.

My teenage son trained Jiu-Jitsu as a kid” Kiedis told Rogan. “I tried Jiu-Jitsu 3 times. I love it but the only thing about is that it hurts. It really hurts man. I would come home with all these aches and pains. Then I would start to lose skin on my feet from all the friction on the mats.”

I love watching it. It’s fascinating. Can’t get enough of it.

Even though Anthony Kiedis might not be training on a regular basis, watching tons of UFC and grappling has certainly paid off for him. In 2016 when TV host James Corden was interviewing the band during Carpool Karaoke, he and Anthony started talking about grappling. Corden claimed he could “destroy” Anthony, and that was all it took for the band to pull over next to the first lawn they saw.

During the playful “match” Kiedis started moving goofy, but then demonstrated some nice moves, taking Corden down with something like a double leg after Corden initiated a shoot, and crossfacing him tightly from top half guard. He easily got to side control, pinning Corden who chose to tap at this point.

Corden conceded that Anthony “destroyed him” and that “he is strong”.

Anthony Kiedis is just one more in a large pool of celebrities that are actively training or have trained in Brazilian Ju-Jitsu throughout the years.
