FOZZY singer Chris Jericho has long touted his love of KISS, especially the band’s non-makeup years. In 2020, Jericho, Trixter/FOZZY bassist P.J. Farley, guitarist Joe McGinness and drummer Kent Slucher formed the KISS cover band Kuarantine and released their version of “No No No” which originally appeared on KISS’ 1987 album, “Crazy Nights.” The song reached No. 25 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, and the band would later record “Heart Of Chrome” (originally on 1992’s “Revenge”) with former KISS guitarist Bruce Kulick. They also recorded another “Crazy Nights” cut, “Love’s A Deadly Weapon.” In all, Kuarantine has totaled nearly 500,000 views on YouTube.

 

Paul Stanley’s Reasoning for Auctioning His Historic Corvette May Surprise You

When you get to browsing online and looking up some of the most impressive celebrity car collections, you’ll find some rare and expensive gems. From Hollywood titans to music industry icons, passion for legendary rides is prominent in celebrity circles. One such famous person is Paul Stanley of KISS. One of his cars, a historic Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, is an absolute one of a kind.

Surprisingly, Stanley announced he had plans to auction off his beloved Corvette. Industry enthusiasts are chomping at the bit to learn more about where they might see this car and just how much it may fetch at auction. Others are scratching their heads. Why would Paul Stanley sell such a beauty? His reasoning for actioning his Chevrolet Corvette Stingray might surprise you.

When KISS lead singer Paul Stanley first ordered his 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible, he had no idea he would own such a historic ride. He’s owned other Corvettes, including the first one he purchased after KISS made it big, the 1977 Corvette. He also bought the first mid-engine Corvette Stingray produced in 2020. Stanley tweeted back then, “it raises the bar” and said, “it’s a machine I’m proud to drive.” But the 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is more iconic, and it may be just as legendary as KISS.

So, why sell it? Fox News shared the story and suggested that the KISS frontman doesn’t feel like he’s “doing it justice.” Stanley said he would rather a custom car this incredible be in the hands of “somebody [else] who might be able to get more out of it.” This car would be an ideal addition to someone’s Corvette collection or for someone who intended to drive this powerful car. In a way, it’s surprising Stanley feels he’s not quite good enough to own a car this special.

The 2022 Chevy Corvette Stingray Paul Stanley is putting up for auction is particularly unique. He nabbed the first C8 model year off the production line with the VIN 001. This isn’t just another high-priced, celebrity-owned sportscar. Stanley calls it “a collector’s dream,” as the Robb Report noted.

That’s right, the band’s co-founder and bassist explained to fans he was getting his hair colored as to why he was dressed in bath attire.
