GENE SIMMONS To 'Put The Man Back In Romance' With Upcoming Reality Series

January 11, 2005

"Mr. Romance", comedy/reality series created by KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons, is set to premiere Monday, March 14 at 10 p.m. on Oxygen TV, according to Broadcasting & Cable.

A contest for the Harlequin romance books' next coverboy, "Mr. Romance" will feature twelve beefy guys competing in a "romance boot camp" for a $50,000 cash prize, learning how to kiss for the camera, walk the catwalk and strike seductive poses. The show will run for five, one-hour episodes and a two-hour finale. Fabio himself, Gene Simmons and TV personality Tina Malave will serve as judges, with no eliminations made until the finale.

"With our tongue firmly planted in our cheek, we are putting the man back in romance," Oxygen Chairman and CEO Geraldine Laybourne told TV critics gathered for the Television Critics Association tour in L.A.
