PAUL STANLEY FROM KISS IS NOW A CONDOM: Kiss founder Paul Stanley is about to become a condom. The "Studded Paul Kiss Kondom" is being released this weekend, as a sequel to the band's prior launch into the health market with the "Lubricated Tongue". "Social responsibility is important to me, so if a Kiss Kondom encourages someone to use a condom to help prevent an unwanted pregnancy or sexually transmitted disease, I've helped," said Paul Stanley, lead vocalist and rhythm guitar player for Kiss. "Paul is a stud, something legions of our adoring fans have known for many years. Now more women will know what a `stud' he truly is," adds Kiss bass player Gene Simmons. The "Studded Paul" KISS Kondom features a studded latex condom and images of Paul Stanley on the box and wrapper and is being launched in concert with the second issue of the highly popular "Gene Simmons Tongue" Magazine. Since coming on the scene 90 days ago, over 50,000 Kiss Kondoms have been sold. They are said to be the first-ever condom to display colour photographic images of a person or licensed property on both the condom wrapper and on the box. Paul Cashmere courtesy of Undercover
