My neighbor's wife.
In a recent LA Weekly interview Paul Stanley, reported “good egg” and at one time the only member of KISS who it could be said did not need shamefully hide his face under a multicolored coat of greasepaint, explains the band’s long-running popularity:
I don’t necessarily want to buy a t-shirt with a guy on it who looks like my neighbor.
The 2 hours it took to apply the greasepoint is optional ever since the band first “unmasked” itself in the 1980s. Looking at Paul today, one is more likely to wonder, “Maybe it’s Maybelline.”
I met Paul in 1997 and apart from the obvious wig, he looked like they years had been kind to him. Gene on the other hand looks more like my neighbor’s aunt with a black cat on her head every day. No way he could “rock” convincingly w/o the make-up (even in 1984 he looked lost without it)
Sammy Hagar was on that Metal Show and said he felt sorry for KISS having to spend 2 hours in the makeup chair before every show.
…and I don’t buy the T-shirt if it has faces on in anyway, that’s what LOGOS are for
Found this blog, it’s a little cruel, but here it is:
