Band spawned by notoriously camp reality TV show of the same name. Similar in format to America's Next Top Model, the aim of the show was to find a Rock Star front man. Contestants were judged and appraised like cattle by former members of Guns n roses, Motley Crue and Metallica. Despite claims to the contrary and the inclusion of female contestants, the job was always going to go to a guy. The main point of interest was the outing of 2 of the main players. Tommy Lee salaciously groping and frotting the top young male contenders. Gilby Clarke, a former Candy man declaring he couldn't stand women grinding on him, it made him feel cheap. True to its name the band has since imploded.
