Mini auctions KISS Countryman cars to fund global relief efforts

By MICHELLE KOUEITER

If Dad's Gene Simmons poster is starting to lose its luster, you should probably sign on to eBay to try to win him a custom-painted Mini forever emblazoned with that tongue.

Mini and the rock bank Kiss partnered to auction four Countrymans (Countrymen?) that are custom-painted with the iconic likeness of each band member, in a 10-day Father's Day charity auction that started on May 29.

Kiss band members joined Mini at the New York auto show in April to unveil the four vehicles now up for auction.

Proceeds will go to UNICEF to help children in Japan and toward other emergency relief efforts around the globe.

KISS IS EVERYWHERE!

Hi there,

Here's an article about a sports event called Rock and Run. And these people really rock and run! This was in a big free newspaper which is available every morning here in Holland. Enjoy!

Greetings and hope to see you guys in the Netherlands again someday soon!

Rock on! Mini dresses up cars to look like KISS

By Chris Woodyard, USA TODAY

If you're a really big fan of the glam band Kiss, this is your car. Mini is dressing up four of its iconic Countryman crossovers to look like the 1970s rockers.

The four are being sold on eBay with the proceeds going to the children's' charity UNICEF. Each car will be given the face-paint look of one band member but will be signed by the whole band. That's the Gene Simmons-inspired car in the photo, above.

You may recall that Kiss made a splashy impression in April at the New York auto show as part of a Mini presentation. Three out of four Kiss musicians showed up, and Mini USA's chief was painted as if he were a member of the band.

In addition to the auction, Mini USA is selling vehicle wraps featuring the Kiss-inspired designs, initially revealed at the New York auto show. Proceeds from the sales of the vehicle wraps will also be donated to UNICEF.

Nick Cannon aims for the laughs with the parody video for “Famous,” the Akon-assisted single from his forthcoming album. The comedian-rapper imitates icons including KISS’ Gene Simmons, Michael Jackson, Fred Astaire, and MC Hammer.

Here's the video:

Before the walking even started at the 2011 Relay for Life event last weekend, the teams and committee had surpassed their $60,000 goal. Event Chairman Jay Walker announced that the group had raised more than $62,000 prior to Friday night.

Hey Guys!

Looking through the photos of this weekend's Fargo Marathon, I saw these women wearing KISS makeup. I guess they call themselves W.H.O.Rs (Women High On Running). The theme this year was Fargo Rocks! I guess you can't get more Rockin' than KISS!!

Yes, that's my daughter Hailey on the far left. The nut doesn't fall too far from the tree!

Check out the "Paul" pose!

The photo is from the end of school days at her school. The kids were allowed to dress up! My daughter and her friends dressed up as KISS with the help of a teachers aid. I didn't know until she snapped this photo on her cell and sent it to me!
