Gene Simmons & Tommy Lee Slam Rihanna For Lip-Syncing

Rihanna may have inadvertently been the victim of a bashing of current pop stars by Tommy Lee and Gene Simmons, but it's clear they are not fans of pop stars lip-syncing.  Motley Crue and KISS are set to go on an explosive tour this summer, and at the press conference announcing the show they were asked what fans can expect.  The Crue and KISS are known for their eccentric stage shows, but they never let any of the flames, lights or girls get in the way of actually singing, unlike some of today's pop stars.

We're sick and tired of girls getting up there with dancers and karaoke tapes in back of them. No karaoke singers allowed. No fake bullsh-t. Leave that to Rihanna-Schimianna and everybody else whose name ends with an 'A.'

-Gene Simmons

After the press conference Tommy Lee was asked about the comments made by Gene Simmons, and he said while he means no disrespect to Rihanna, he is glad Gene said it.   Simmons has long disapproved of lip-syncing, and it looks like Rihanna, or any singer with an 'A' at the end of their name is his target.  That means you Ke$hA, SelenA Gomez, Lady GaGA and MadonnA.  Not you ShakirA, because your hips don't lie.
