Rock Star: KISS? Really?

Really? Are Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley really going to allow themselves to be put through the ringer of of this whole "Rock Star" show on CBS? You know, the one that had INXS looking for a new singer? Apparently the story goes that this is for "replacements" after Simmons and Stanley "retire," so that new characters can carry on the band name. Seriously.

Even I think this is the epitome of ridiculousness. I know Stanley keeps saying that KISS is not just a band but a phenomenon. While this may be true, do they really expect their fans to embrace a whole new band? Like their history and 19 studio albums (along with countless live and compilations) should be attributed to strangers? Dumb. Dumb. Dumb.

I'm sure I'll check it out (if it is true) only for the novelty of it. But this is just stupid.
