From: Blabbermouth World Entertainment News Network is reporting that "GENE SIMMONS' Rock School" contestant Chris Hardman, who was chosen by KISS bassist/vocalist GENE SIMMONS as the frontman for the band he created from students at an English high school, has landed a £500,000 ($900,000) record deal with RCA. The 15-year-old singer/guitarist, who is nicknamed Little Chris by his friends in Lowestoft, England, was wowed viewers with his musical talent and extrovert personality. Hardman is amazed by his achievement. He says, "I can't believe it. When they offered me the deal I genuinely thought it was a big joke. It is going to be really cool making my first album." A spokesperson for RCA predicts Hardman will be a massive success in U.K. "Little Chris is best described as a grown-up Bart Simpson after he discovered rock music," he said. "He has a massive personality. He's like a cartoon character in a good way." Simmons said of Hardman on the show, "He could be a recording artist within three years. He's a David in a Goliath's world. He has the heart of a lion, charisma and delusional self-confidence despite living in Lowestoft, which is the most depressing place I have seen." |
